Post Game Passion: AFL 2019 Rd 13: Carlton vs. Western Bulldogs

[jeza]

I must have been watching a different game..be more handy in the twos learning how to kick and hit a target...16 kicks @59% Disposal efficiency including a shocker out on the full at a critical time.
The Dogs wingman in Lipinksi has about 27 @86% plus 2 goals.....not a bad afternoons work for a 20 gamer...
LOB for a pick 10 has a long way to go and is lucky we dont bat deep in the two's, he wont be looking forward to Deluca getting fit either.

Credit where it's due - LOB was much better last night.

He was one of our best in the first half. Died out a little in the second but ran his guts out against his far more experienced opponents (mostly Hunter).

Overall has been much better the last 2 weeks .

Far from perfect but developing nicely and hopefully he can get more of the ball from now on.

(Lipinski is a 3rd year player and would have about 10kg on LOB)

I don't think he has. After the bye I believe. This was written on May 29th :

Deluca suffered a grade one hamstring tear at training last Monday night and won’t be available for selection for at least another week or two. With Carlton having their mid-season bye in Round 14, he might not be in the frame for a senior game in the next month.

Thanks Paul
Geez, how's his luck. That must have just about his first training session  :-\
Playing in a higher grade isn't ideal after an injury either

LOB is 185cm and 78kg, Pick 10 and has played 26 games, Lipinski is 187cm and 84kg, Pick 28 and has played 21 games....Not a real lot of difference given they run down the wing and dont do stoppage work.
LOB was meant to be a very good kick but continues to butcher the ball, 59% is very poor given he isnt a contested player
and requires other players to give him the ball so he can be the link player with supposed good disposal.
He is very lucky we dont have much in the two's IMO...Pick 10 was way overs given his output and skill level.

Thanks Paul

3rd year vs. 2nd year.

Pick 10 may look overs right now - but as I say you're incredibly harsh on a 19 year old. Just show a tiny bit of patience.

That was Setterfield's best game in a long while. Big positive.

[LordLucifer]

The simple reason why we lost this game is that we had way too many passengers too often.

(Should see what he says about poor young Ben Silvagni!!)

Thats the poor young Ben who wont chase, cant be bothered putting in much effort and thinks playing senior footy will just happen because Dad's a big wheel
at the club and is doing it so tough...forgive me for calling him out when I should be wearing my Navy Blue glasses and adoring his wonderful work ethic.
You keep monitoring Lachies high percentage of disposal efficiency too ....59%.....if thats high then you are easy to please....

Just watched the replay (second half only) and geeze SPS and Fish were instrumental in getting us back in it with smart ball movement.  No need to worry about them, they’ll be fine.

How good is Cunners? Look forward to seeing him further develop!
