VFL 2023 Rd 11: Carlton vs Frankston at Ikon Park

June 02, 2023, 02:00:03 pm

This game is set for Saturday at 14:05 at home.
Last year Frankston killed 11 goals in the last quarter to win after we'd been up by close to 10 goals. We need to see a better effort this time.
Our team sheet has not yet been published, but the team will be considerably weaker than last week.

Bloody awful so far.

Martin and Cunningham invisible and Marchbank quite fumbly.

Half time down by one point.
Much better that quarter. Jack Martin showed his class and Cunningham really started to get going towards end of that quarter. Both playing on the ball.

Binns has been very good, reads the game well and takes the right option. Think he should get a promotion soon.

A natural footballer unlike LOB…..🥔

Plowman just put us in front with a bomb from the boundary line

Hope the boys watched this game.
Showed how to stay with it, create, take your chances, and yes, win despite kicking 16pts.

They played a lot like our AFL played first half of 22. Refreshing to see some dare and flair.

Binns to debut next week.

I watched only the last few minutes. Dare I ask but how did Cunningham, Marchbank and Martin go?

Good tough win in the end
Binns is an excellent young winger
Cunners and Martin started very slow but started to come into the match towards the end about 2-3 weeks away
Marchbank was solid but is slightly off with decision making and disposal - another 1-2 weeks.

Only Binns should get a call up with George returning after protocols

The question for me is" when are they going"

Thanks Pinot, George hasn't exactly set the world on fire this year so a return may not be guaranteed if form is a prerequisite.

Some interesting statistics from the game:
[1] Binns: 34 possessions, 4 clearances and 0 tackles! 0 tackles?
[2] David Cuningham: 21 possessions - he has 2 in the first quarter, but had 12 at half time. Apparently he got 8 possessions in about 9 minutes in the 2nd quarter. 7 clearances and 3 tackles.
It might take a few weeks, but there were some good signs there, especially when we were beaten in the ruck.
[3] Jack Martin: 18 possessions, consisting of 2 kicks and 16 handballs. 2 kicks!? No scores at all.
However, 6 tackles and 3 clearances.
I think it might be a few weeks before he is ready for a senior game, but I'm pleased with the tackles.
[4] Harry Lemmey: 9 possessions and 1 goal, but 14 taps. He had none at half time. I will be watching the replay with interest, as we didn't get 14 taps in the entire first half.
The lad has a long way to go, but I am really pleased to see him make an impact in the ruck.
[5] Ed Curnow: 16 possessions, 2 clearances and 4 tackles. How the mighty have fallen. Ed probably shouldn't get any more senior games if he can't make a real impact at VFL level. I hadn't realized just how much missing last year has affected his ability to get where the ball is.
[6] Fog: 21 possessions, 7 tackles and 2 clearances. There is a lot to like about Fog, but he doesn't fit in where we need him.
