Pros:

Walkers return
Curnows work in and under was vital
Eddie Betts in the middle in the 3rd
Simmos 2nd half
Henderson toweled up
Robbo after half time

Cons:

Simmos 1st half
Last quarter fade out
Still too cute at times
Lack of forward structure, we just kick and hope
Bombing the ball out of defence straight into the oppositions hands

Lucas - Why didnt we pick Fyfe in the 2009 draft

Carlton needed Fyfe to hand a goal to Simpson.

Don't bash the player who started as the sub and had to pick up the tempo of Saints footy.

Kane's a gun.

Robinson - 1st half was woeful Agreed

Thornton - Back to the two's Much better option than Bower ... can actually play both ends of the ground
Duigan - Pathetic Out of touch but pathetic ?
Lucas - Why didnt we pick Fyfe in the 2009 draft Why didn't you pick the right lotto numbers last week ?

Mate it's only footy. He should enjoy the birth of the baby regardless of the outcome of the match.

This was meant as a joke (should have used grin/laugh emoticon instead of smile).

Um... , sticksaftersiren87, I'm not sure we are on the same wavelength. I was referring to describing a draft selection as being like picking lotto numbers. It just disagrees with me.

Pro: Winning over there; and virtually without Judd's dominance....Eddie in the midfield....4 points.

Con: Playing safe too early in the last qtr.

So going on your theory then , all draft picks have careers in accordance with when they were drafted and there's no luck involved. My point was that drafts can be a bit like a lottery ... Richard Lounder anyone ?

No, that must be someone else's theory.

Pro
Eddie in the midfield please continue with flexible coaching
Arm field and walker make a huge difference
kicking for goal
Jamo started to run and carry in the second half
Con
Perth is hard but we need to be ruthless . No fade outs
The coaches need to allow Kreuzer to play as a big man. Long stints forward will do him the world of good. He is starting to play like he is 185 not 205

Consistency is the key to success!

Every week we seem to have a little fade out.

No, on the contrary. I'm denying the hackneyed mantra that it's virtually all luck. Having the ability to discern and a favourable draft position has a lot to do with it; otherwise, we'd trade all our picks away and twiddle our thumbs waiting for a game of blind fold when everybody else is finished.

Pros, we won, were it's hard to win.
Cons, as an observer via TV, at times we don't look desperate enough.
The pretend smothers do my head in.
Carlton looked great against Collingwood because they did the little things, the sacraficial things.
I haven't seen that in the last two weeks.

In my eyes, those efforts, smothers, blocks and filling holes by all players, that's what inspires success.

Regards
Pedro.
