2018 Rd 7: Pre Game Paranoia: Carlton vs Adelaide

What evidence do you have to support that, are you sure history supports that claim?

At the rate the Crows are accumulating injuries, cans and "tests" Gibbs could well be captaining against us! ;D

For all the naysayers Gibbs had here at Carlton, my Adelaide mate thinks he and Laird are probably 1st and 2nd in the Crow's B&F at the moment!

Is there a worse left foot kick in the comp?
We all love his commitment but wow he can turn it over.

Are we too accepting of the gut wrenching failure, the supreme effort forever falling just short?

It would be an interesting message to send, I think we need it!

I think we'll have to wear his faults this year JH. He'll probably finish up then.
Reality always wins in the end.

Kennedy aint right still. Moving super slow and turning circle of a Mack truck! Not sure what they do there. He should have come back via the VFL IMO.

We are too tall IMO also.

His foot skills have always been the difference between him being a good honest footballer and a top liner.
Cripps and Charlie need to brush up as well.
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.

re: Simpsons kicking, cant kick as far as he did and as he tires it gets worse but as Cookie suggested he is a heart and soul player and he gives it all when he plays and its shame his last season will spent struggling for wins. Need to win the Essendon game for him, be nice to see him be BOG in a winning team vs those muppets....

There is no improvement from Simmo, Ed, Kerridge (Although???) but these two kids have to show something, was happy to see Cripps trying to kick it some more last weekend. That has to be step one of getting better at it, actually doing some of it!

Also liked Cripps becoming a bit more mobile at stoppages instead of just working inside all the time, for his size he is quite agile and once he's got momentum and space he deals with opponents quite easily. Handed out some Dusty style don't argues as well.

One might go with the other, mobility makes space, space makes kicking.
