Simpson and Docherty have been woeful this year.Simpson should have retired, Docherty has still got years in him
Re: 2017 Round 5: In game angst: Carlton vs Port Adelaide Reply #167 – April 21, 2017, 10:10:11 pm There will be a few changes next week. A few fellas look hurt, Murphy, Cripps, SPS, Weiters all look lame.
Re: 2017 Round 5: In game angst: Carlton vs Port Adelaide Reply #168 – April 21, 2017, 10:10:39 pm Cripps is a great player, but I'd be trading him sooner rather than later.In our team he is no value, he is surrounded by players that are too slow, and opposition clubs use his opponent to sprint forward at every opportunity. He's too slow to make up for lost ground once the opposition get hold of the ball. They do this because they do not need to respect him as a forward target they are able to roll the dice.He's got 40 or 50 games up now, if he can't make himself a viable forward target he's in for a long career full of pain.

Re: 2017 Round 5: In game angst: Carlton vs Port Adelaide Reply #175 – April 21, 2017, 10:14:57 pm That's what I mean about Jack. 40 out, almost directly in front, go back, line it up and hopefully kick a goal. but, no, he had to play on.
