2017 Rd 9: Post Game Patter: Carlton vs Fremantle

[blue4life]

Well the Jim Park voting thus far in 2017 would counter your pitch rather decisively I'd say.....don't judge him by numbers just him by whether he influences a game. Most days he does not.

He could be every bit as god as Selwood or Hodge (of old) if he put in harder....

There's a bias against Gibbs among Carlton supporters because he was taken at pick one and it was assumed that he would be an elite player.
It didn't work out that way and there's a general sense of disappointment, Watts, Fraser and others have suffered the same fate at the hands of the supporters of their clubs. 
He puts in as hard as anyone else in my opinion, but he'll never be a Sellwood or Hodge.
