I liked how the commentators tried to cut Casboult some slack for his goal kicking because of his injured finger......which happens to be on his left hand and as very little (if any) effect on the right footed casboult.

He can't kick. EOS.

His misses today were the difference.  I'm over him.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

He's teflon man, he'll play AFL next week, no matter what sh1t he delivers. All it does is pile up on team-mates! The tell was last week when he was the late out, having Rowe forward for a while we looked so much better, not because Rowe is great but because he does something!

I'll always cut someone slack off an injury. Hands up those who bagged Kennedy this year. Bet no-one owns up. Doesn't mean i'd play Levi if he can't get a kick. He should've come back though the NBs.

Levi's done an admirable job filling the gap between Waite/Henderson and the young ones coming though, especially given hen picked him up from the pits of the rookie draft. Not to mention doing a decent job as a 2nd ruck. Thing is though we have a few good few forwards now, one a superstar, so we probably don't need Levi now. Not to mention, IMO, a good young player in De Konning, who looks like he can play both ruck and key forward going by VFL form at least. Not many of those around. McKay apparently had a good game today.

Yep
Should have come back through the VFL.
Shouldn't have played the Freo game either
He was playing quite well earlier in the year and shouldn't be crucified for a couple of bad games coming back...but wé're now at a stage where there is competition for his spot so he has to perform or lose that position.
Back to the VFL for a spell.

FMD, Kennedy is in his 3rd year with 20 games, Casboult is in his 10th year!

Make a realistic comparison! Wink

Can't argue with that. Too soft between the lugholes. McKay / Kerr to be persevered with.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

Curnow and Kerr as key forwards, all will be good, Curnow a superstar. Levi's done an admirable job as a rookie draft pick 44 to fill the gap between losing Waite and Henderson and waiting for the young ones to develop but it's time for those young ones.

What do you think Levi might be worth on the trade table? He won't get any better for us, would he get a late second rounder?

Whatever it is it'll be a fair profit from deep in the rookie draft.

What he's worth depends on how he finishes the season. 29 next year so he might be 3rd round now.

He's worth zero as a trade, someone might pick him up if we delisted him but it's doubtful.
He's contracted for 2019 anyway, more brilliant list management.
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.
