Play Cottrell in the middle .

YAWWWWWWWWWWN

Their mid field smashed us
Ed was our only winner
Our defence won us the game
That’s not going to get it done
It’s the same as last year
Cripps Walsh Curnow the rest
Gibbons is our next best and is finally getting a crack in there
Cottrell showed some intensity on a wing last night
Should of played round one but guys like Setterfield and Dow O’Brien are picked because of their reputation

For years some blokes internally are overrated largely due to where they were picked in the draft
Cuningham Dow O’Brien Setterfield have been given opportunities over others and have failed. They have been giving decent long term contracts as well where a guy like Gibbons or Cottrell who to me are better players have to fight every step of the way

Teague has to play SPS in the midfield.
He was good last night but played the easy role in defence

Play Philp( another with a long term deal) Stocker Honey Ramsay see what they have got
Play Cottrell in the middle Honey on a wing

Williams back will help
Martin has been tried in the midfield but has failed so far. Give him a go there although don’t hold your breath
Kennedy is average. He has been tried there and not come up with the goods either
It’s easy to look good when you come on when everyone is rooted

The bottom line is if you have 4 consistently good mids your going nowhere.

Just on overrated players pencil in Jack Lukosius
He is a taller version of Bryce Gibbs
Great skills beautiful mover great vision but
Soft as warm butter
Give me a guy Luke Parks any day of the week to play finals footy
As I said some blokes are incredibly overrated
Some are incredibly underrated

Hardly a difference between in post game threads after a win or loss.
Some people in here permanently negative and depressed.
Serious PTSD going on.

How good was Parksy’s fair hit on him.
Now there’s a player who doesn’t take his place in the side for granted

Give us your adnauseam armageddon scenarios BUT stop talking sh1111111t
How much exposure have we had to Kennedy the last 2-3 years?

It’s being logical
You advance to the top of the ladder with 3 or 4 decent mids
Have a look at last night
Greenwood Miller Bowes Anderson Swallow Weller all owned us except Curnow
This without a recognised ruckman
Midfield depth is one of the keys to success these days

I ain’t talking shit
Kennedy has been given opportunity over others in the midfield and hasn’t consistently delivered in that area. Fact. That’s why he was delisted and rookied last year.
He is no leg speed so he is an inside mid but doesn’t quite cut the mustard
Where he is better than average is as a third tall forward
Get your facts straight
He is another SOS love child
Went pick 13 then is traded to us for pick 28
SOS picked him up twice with 2 decent separate picks
Does his AFL career output match his reputation from years earlier
No
It’s like I said before
Overrated
Underrated
To me I want to see guys who can consistently play to a level that stands up to finals pressure
To me Gibbons and Cottrell show that
Kennedy hasn’t

When he arrived at Carlton he clearly wasn’t fit enough
Even with a dodgy ankle not being fit enough when your a so-called professional sportsman is simply not good enough
At least his fitness has improved

You guys make me laugh with some of the comments made in this thread.

We won the contested possessions and only lost the clearances 46 to 39, hardly a smashing.

Did you sleep through the last quarter? Our midfield generated 8 scoring shots to their 3 when the game was there to be won. How does that fit in with being smashed?

How did you like Murphy’s tackles?

Whomever selected Gibbons was a genius for looking in the state league comps don’t you think?
