Was reading the Herald Sun and i was SHOCKED to see Kouta (whom i thought was one of our better players for the day) had the 4th lowest ranking points.
What shocked me even more was seeing players like McGrath/French higher than him???
What shocked me even more is that Kouta is listed as having 7 Clangers, whilst McGrath is listed as having none! Nuthing! Zip!
WTF?????
Just watched a replay of the game and i have no idea how the Herald Sun comes up with these F@%&#! scores. I really don't.
Clanger, in the Sun, is listed as:-
Quote:
Blatant unforced error incl out on the full.
So does that mean the pathetic grubber of a kick from Mcgrath that couldn't even hit a running Kennedy who was just 30mtrs out from goal, WASN'T an error?
Or the crap handball to nobody late in the last quater that resulted in an Essendon* goal to Hille................THAT WASN'T AN ERROR?
French did F@%&#! all thourghout the whole day, was destroyed in the ruck, and he gets a better score than Chris Bryan????
French - 8 Pos, 2 marks, 11 hit-outs, 1 (so-called) clanger and 0 goals 0 behinds = 76 Ranking points?????????????????
Bryan - 12 Pos, 7 Marks, 14 Hiy-outs, 1 (so-called) clanger and 1 goal 1 behind = 64 Ranking points??????????????????
That's a laugh!
Stevens & Houlihans game was riddled with Errors yet they still make it in the best?
(Note:- i'll back away from Houla cause whilst he made a few errors that reulted in turn-overs etc, etc, he DID keep Campo to a low 17 disposals which is an achievement. And he did set up a goal for Fev and kicked one of his own!)
Walker was listed as having a 'Dirty Game' by both commentators on Fox Footy. But after watching it again, i'm thinking he had a pretty decent game.
Walker was responsible for 3 CRUCIAL Spoils in the last qtr alone, including one in the dying 20sec of the game that could have resulted in Essendon* gaining just that extra point needed to win the game!
Does everybody believe that Walker's game was that BAD? Or Kouta's?
I was stunned to see that Mcgrath had no clangers listed also then my brother who is also a blue just started laughing. McGrath makes these basic skill errors every week and Carlton tolerate him. Walker kicked a nice goal and made some good spoils at key moments. McGrath wilted under pressure-but then again he normally wilts when theres no pressure.
