His disposal is shocking, his decision making making shocking, he constantly puts team mates under pressure. Sorry mate but your time is up out Carrazzo in Bannister or Walker

Don't agree. We need his pace in the backline. I reckon we need to look at setting up a gameplan that compensates for his poor kicking.

Carrazzo was great last night, but I agree his kicking either needs work, or someone needs to be in the vicinity for a handball.

Get a grip BB. He has been one our best performers in his last 10 senior games. Sure he had a brain freeze late in the last quarter when he kicked across goal but the rest weren't bad.

If anyone needs a spray for poor disposal and poor decision making it's Waite and Davies. Both let themselves and the team down time and again with below average kicking.

Carraz will do me.

Harsh call.
The kid knows how to find the footy, with a bit of confidence his disposal will come good.

Give me a break. The guy has played a handful of games of footy and yes he has made some disposal errors. On the flip side plenty of his kicks last night did find a target and it's great to have a back pocket that has poise and is able to find space. He has been a revelation as far as I'm concerned.

Time to go, my arse!

Carrots was one our better players in my book. He's fast becoming a favourite at the cameldome. He goes alright I reckon.

Fact is the majority of our blokes could do with improving their disposal, espcially into our F50. Bit hard for Fev and Lance if the ball keeps coming at a half volley.

For mine, on current form Carazzo is in my starting 18.

I think you're on your own here, Ballistic Blues.

Carrazzo would have again been in our best players (despite some mistakes).

You can't slam a guy for lacking composure when he's played less than a dozen or so AFL games. That's just lunacy.

Does need to work on his disposal though, those high bombs into the forward line will get a forward hurt.

It's allways difficult to assess a players game when they get plenty of the ball but their disposal lets them down...just look at Kouta last week..there was a lot of debate over his game...

However give me a player that gets a lot of the ball and makes a few errors over someone who only gets a half a dozen possessions a game any day.

He's only young and I'm sure he would be working hard on his weaknesses...very hard call to single him out as most of the team was guilty of poor kicking last night...worth persevering with I think...

Carrots was one of our best backmen in a pretty inexperienced backline, I think he's only going to get better.

As I said in a different thread his kicking is decidedly Simon Fletcheresque, but the rest of his game is on the money.

He will become one of our midfield lynchpins in the next few years.

Give the kid a break.

IMO he is a dark-horse for the Rising Star nom this week (if he's eligible).

I have to agree with bb and BM re Carrazzos disposal. It was absolutely shocking last night. He turned it over more than just once..Alot of the time theyre bad turn overs.

i had my fingers crossed and held my breath each time he had the ball.

On the flip side he does find the ball alot and you cant teach that.
The other thing is he has played only 4 games.

I just watched the reply again, I was a little optimistic in my last post, but he provided most of our run in the middle, especially when the rest of the mid field was standing still in the 3rd quarter. Made a bad decision kicking to Lance with 3 opponents on him, still somehow got to Lappin for a goal. But drop him, no way!

I'd be pointing the finger at Waite for disposal and decision making errors way before Carrazzo (a.k.a. Spiro Kourkemelis and Peter McConnville's love child).

I don't know which game you were watching, but carrots was constantly getting the ball under pressure and delivering with class and time. There were a lot of players in Navy Blue who had worse games than him last night. His disposal might need some work, true, but overall, he's a gem. His decision-making needs game time to develop properly, under the tutelage of Lappin, Teague, and Stevens, but he'll come good.
