Pros
Not too Fev reliant
1AW
GIBBS
SOV
Judd in the last and that massive grin on his face after kicking that goal.
Grigg
Carrots
Kreuzer
Hammer
Simmo
WIGGINS - Nice mark in the 3rd

Cons
Shocking accuracy at goal
Saddo - not sure what he was doing but no future at the club. Looked tentative and most of his kicks didn't make the distance.
Should have had a bigger % boost
Fox Sports audio dies and then go straight to motor sport - WTF

Pros,

We actually won a game BEFORE the final break, not after it

Walker is back !!!!!!!!!!!! (love this guy, awesome player and ANYONE that says we should trade him for Keer needs to be shot !!!!!!!!

Cons.

Fishers spot will have to be looked at next week ............. He cant kick .......... I was more shocked when he kicked his goal than when he missed them ..............

Sat just near SOS, Jo and our future CHF, CHB and FB. A good four quarter effort against a team that has put the cue in the rack, but we were a bit wasteful again.

PROS

1. Waite - Unreal game, second efforts have improved and he wins a lot of contests.

2. JUDD - freak. Has a guy hanging on to him all day and still busts the clearances. Speed is back. Tackles well. How can you not love him? Should get way more free kicks though, it's a disgrace if you watch off the ball how they hold him.

3. GIBBS - freak.

4. Grigg - great first half and faded.

5. Jammo - Very solid

Special mentions to Kreuzer and Walker.

CONS

1. I leave every game thinking 'if only we had a real forward line'. Someone said we had like 75 I50's to 30 but we still can't convert properly.

2. Fev - Sulking just isn't on. Don't sulk.

3. Good old JRuss could break Jimmy Stynes' games record as long as he keeps his photos of Ratts, but I don't know if any of them would be any good.

4. Fisher's kicking at goal is disgraceful and in a big game like next week's could cost us.

5. The selection of Saddington was a waste of a game of development. As Hampson showed, you don't learn anything in the Bullants - it's a shocking environment for development and we need him and others playing for the Blues not the Ants.



Some big games coming up, but even if we lose all three it's been a decent year. Areas to improve remain our forward line, our coaching and the ruck - these will determine how far up we can go next year, because our backline and middle are set.

Pros:

Directing the ball to different forwards.

Cons:

Having 3 Carlton forwards competing against each other for the long kick to the goal square.

Pros:

The port power theme song was played quietly.

The roar as the blue baggers swaggered onto the ground drowned out the pathetic power theme song.

Cons:

Lilly of Laguna was played quietly.

Pros 2:

A loud rendition of Lilly of Laguna sounding out during all of the fourth quarter. Been a while, I've missed you Lilly!
