's lovechild but gives a Carlton fan's perspective on Jack Carroll.

 

[SG34]

Isn’t it kind of weird we call (I call) players as mediocre or middling, when no doubt, they would all have been out and out elite champions as juniors - no doubt the best players, if not best player singular, in their entire respective competitions.

But that’s how it goes for professionals in team sports. You get to the 99.99991% mark of the mountain climb, but the peanuts in front of our screens only rank you 0 to 100, with those still climbing the last 0.00009%!! From hero to battler.

Free hit, good age, highly rated as a draftee and has gone okay in his relatively limited opportunities. Don't mind having him on board at all. His highlights show he can work through traffic, and can absorb a tackle and get a handball away which is a good skill to have. Hopefully he continues to develop and can become a gun for us

My summary from a 30 second read is...

Cooper Lord arrived and is cleaner and also hard. Cooper Lord, in three games, has gone past Jack Carrol who has campaigned for four years - despite his purple patch in the first few games of '24. Lord is cleaner, just better. I think Carrol would be a depth player in a competitive team.

But why was he so 'good' in those first games of '24. And why did he fall away?

This Cooper Lord must be some player.

Cooper Lord is a pure inside mid, but don’t have the athleticism or kicking skills Carrol does.

Carrol is a balanced mid to me, can play inside/outside so more of a Cerra type. Believe at Carlton they want either inside mids (Kennedy, Cripps) or outside (Hollands, Acres) and nothing in between.
