Pretty happy with those changes. Thought it was a little harsh on Cowan being dropped. I thought he's been growing more into his role each game. But I can understand why he was the out due to structures Will be interesting to see who the sub is

I agree with what he brings and do rate him, however as I said I didn't bring him into the equation as he's been out all year. I also stand by my statement I think McKay is alot more vital to the structure of the team. We can make do without Jack but we struggle without McKay I also don't know...

...We had way to many players not doing the team thing in the forward half. I didn't include JSOS because he's not been an option all year. He also is limited. I do love his endeavour and footy brain but I don't this he's vital to our structure like McKay is ** sorry for the delayed response 😅

I think last night really highlighted how important McKay is to our structure. Not just for his goals but the team things he does. Someone already mentioned it but Acres was also a massive miss. If Harry's out we really don't have an alternative and we struggle massively. Especially if Kemp...

Take away the fact we lost, im more concerned with coaching & player decisions at the moment. We seem to tweak things when they don't need to be tweaked & then we don't tweak the things we do need to... It's like we are trying to be too smart for our own good. It smells of arrogance when we...

Thats probably very true about him being moved around alot, it doesnt help when trying to get some form back into your game. I think he is a very good player and he showed that last year, but i also think he shouldnt be thought of as undroppable. There are very few players who fall into that...

Im not opposed to that thinking but i think the MC & Voss see Walsh as a pure midfield and not a winger so i doubt it will ever happen. Im a fan of Cottrell but i do think he needs to go back to the VFL. I know Binns is the Dow of this year, but i wouldnt have minded him coming in for a full...

He doesn't have the stamina to be running up and down the wing all game. I don't think I've seen him ever run down a player. Id be worried he wont be accountable on transition

To be fair i don't really like him in midfield in his current form. Unfortunately i think he is one of the undroppables so he wont be sent back to the VFL to build form. He is a shadow of the player he was last year

I wouldnt keep him on the books if his wage was ridiculous. Its were id get creative with the contract and put in games played incentives etc. He doesn't have to take it and can go elsewhere but i think its worth putting out there for his talent

I agree he is unreliable which is a damn shame, however I do think if we aren't carrying so many injury prone players, I would be happy to have him on the books. I mean he is a hell of player when fit and I think when u aren't carrying so many injury prone players every year, you are more...

I suspect the following wont be at the club next year; Marchy Matthew Carroll Sam Durdin Dom Akuei Mirkov And the remaining will be offered small contracts or will explore the market. The only ones id really like to see kept are Martin, Owies & Binns. Jack Carroll has his best game for mine...

Hell of an effort by TDK playing with a fractured foot and a collapsed lung. Our injury record this year has been terrible

It was very frustrating. I generally rate Jordan Lewis as someone with a bit logic to his thoughts and comments but even he was poor today

No point talking about the negatives because most people have it covered, but Ill say that's the best game I've seen from Carroll. He didn't do much in the second half but he also only got 65% game time for 17 disposals. Something to build on when I haven't really rated him in the past.

Some very interesting decisions surround the game plan. No point stating what's already been said but things I'd like changed this half.. Cunningham on for Cottrell Direct players to use Charlie as the decoy and target other players... his form doesn't warrant every ball coming to him in the...

Can we look at sending the ball to someone other than Charlie in the forward 50. Is there a reason McKay isn't being targeted as well

Best quarter I've seen of Carroll. Few sloppy things but for the most part doing the right things

He does deserve it. Might be a benefit to both him and Charlie Additional confidence for him & Charlie can move on from his streak which I think may be affecting his game

I think that is what everyone has been holding out hope for. Generally those who are big fans of his have seen those glimpses and think of what he could be. Problem is time is running out for him. 8/ 9 years in the system and he has yet to show he can pull a 4 quarter game off. Not saying...

To be honest I don't care where Cunners play's, I just want him to show what he's capable of for 4 quarters instead of just showing up for a singular quarter.

Never know what the future holds... wouldn't be the first essendon player to join the better club

I really liked him going into the draft and haven't really tracked him since. Is he all hype and no substance in the afl this year? He is very young and has time as all talls do

Feels like a few players are being given opportunity to show they still have a future at Carlton Hopefully we get something from it, ie Williams on the forward half

Being a romantic in a game of sport has nothing to do with being a "bleeding heart", to use your words. Being a romantic of the game, is getting Murph to 300 games due to his service to the club (I was in support of his 300th). Being a romantic of the game is Jason McCartney’s comeback match...

It feels like Marchbank is being every opportunity to hold down a spot. Whether thats due to him retiring at years end and wanting to give him a finals chance, or because Weitering does have a say on who he thinks is more compatible as a defensive unit. I just hope they are not getting caught...

I don't know if I would be that harsh. He is incredibly out of form and looks so fustrated at the moment. I think he is trying to force things and that's making it worse and those selfish shots at goal are highlighting that. When he's in form we don't begrudge him those moments because 8/10...

I've been calling for Ollie to be dropped and Cottrell to be pushed to the wing because Ollie has been costing us in key moments, but at least Ollie has contributed. I assumed Cotts was poor last week because he had a role he was being asked to play, but I can't defend this week. He needs to...

Win or lose there need to be changes next week. Cottrell, Pittonet & Marchbank all need to be dropped. Cerra need to do something because out the moment his form is poor. If he is the reason that Hewitt isn't in then that needs reassessing because his form is not warranting a spot

Marchbank has half a game to fight for his career if the rumours about him retiring aren't true. If McGovern isn't available next week then Nige needs to come in and help weitering Weitering can't do everything
