If someone's willing to kick in the cash, I will personally oversee the construction of a rocket that fires White, Joseph and Davies into the sun, as it seems only such extreme measures will prevent us from selecting them towards the end of the season.

Casboult can't kick, but we all knew that when we brought him in out of desperation.

Matched only by our lack of composure and appalling strategic thinking.

Been the case all year. So disappointing for full time footballers.

Big Levi and his poor kicking a case in point.

Casboult can mark though.

White has been good tonight, the rest I agree with.

White is not quick enough for his size, and he is not fully fit. He is a terrible selection in place of Thornton.

Could have put Thornton in defence and brought in a small to play up forward, with Betts and Garlett to be continually rotating through the same spot up forward and in the middle.

love to know Levi's conversion stats when considered within range.

i recall in a couple of NAB ganes he was also pretty woeful.

love his ability to take a grab

Pleased in some respects with today but highly frustrated. Forward 50 work and goalkicking today have been
terrible. Should be a 10-15pt loss not 30.

White Davies McLean curnow Joseph just list cloggers. They cant hurt the opposition with disposal and don't carry the footy. There stats look good because we play contested footy round the boundary that create ball ups. We don't win many with them in the side

Interesting comments from Watson that Carlton should stick w Ratten. This from one the key players in getting rid of Knights!

spot on. people are kidding themselves if they believe they add a lot to the side. Are plodders. Endeavour only gets you so far. Actually, it's the difference between winning a premiership or not. End up wasting time and your premiership window closes. It's like the Russell scenario.
