Werribee?Carlton?
I thought Dow's who ended with16 disposals was touched up by his opponent. Gribble, the reigning Liston Trophy medalist had 40 touches & was their best player by far., LOB, Carroll & Stocker only players I would consider played well enough to be promoted.I didn’t watch the whole game but how can Dow play on the ball the whole game and only get 16 touches? I read that he had at least 6 clearances too so what’s he doing the rest of the time?
Always nice to see some classy touches from Carroll and Stocker, and good to keep the winning feeling going despite only playing with 10 listed Carlton players.

Yep, I reckon he has it...Mirkov

Before this game I would have said little chance this year. But after that..... It's possible!Mirkov, 42 hit-outs. Plus a few marks around the ground. Developing well. Looks like he may getr a game later in year, maybe if he keeps it up?
In the words of Peter Landy, "Werribee ran out of petrol tickets".toughest job in footy today - explaining how the fu** we won that........

In the 2nd half of the last quarter we found plenty of space right across the ground as Werribee's intensity dropped right off. We had 40 more disposals than Werribee in the last quarter.
The club will happily take the 4 points & use the first 3 quarters as part of player development for the future.

I think Dow was on the bench for significant chunks of the 3rd and 4th quarters. He ground out the game, but perhaps he was playing through something after a strong first half.Because he is all or nothing.
He goes for it, and if he misses the ball, its' someone elses job. In the third he got back to defence to help a few times, which was great to see. But overall he seems to be hit / miss.
Probably a great addition to certain midfields, ut I can't see him getting a game in ours tbh

More about consistency and what he does without the ball. He's always been fine around a stoppage and in link play going forward16 is quiet for a midfielder but his centre bounce clearances turned the game for us in the 3rd.
Every centre bounce he attended in the last he was bear hugged by an opponent facing away from the play. No doubt they identified him as our biggest midfield threat.
His goal when we were two goals down in the last oozed class. Picked it up cleanly and snapped it through on the left after 30secs of fumbling from both sides in our fwd 50.
I’d love to see him earn another opportunity in the seniors soon.
