Hogan has all the tools to be a gun Height Strength Big tank Simply one of these players that lacks the desire to be a top player Probably out with a hangover |

When I first saw Hogan during his first few years, incl before he played at AFL level, I thought he would become the best of a pretty good bunch of young, emerging key forwards. Amazing how often such promise does not deliver. And vice versa. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

We rank 8 th in that area which is a more true indicator of where you are at relative to the 17 other teams. Yet what you read from posters is where Top 4 Top 4….. We are a fair way off it. We have a few things against us this week Injuries and a club who owned up to problems off the field and have partly solved the problem by parting ways with the coach which often produces a positive result in the long term So let’s see how we go this week If we have a good squad and depth we should beat this guys Sent from my SM-G986B using Tapatalk Thoughts on the modern game? The current Carlton team (when fit) has more talent than the 2016 bulldogs. But they applied enormous pressure, particularly in the forward line. Sent from my SM-G986B using Tapatalk |
