Robert Heatley Stand / Re: 2017 Round 3 :Post Game Thread - Carlton vs Essendon
I used to lament to my wife in recent years that there was nothing coming through. We all could see that. Now it is a feast for the eyes,with many yet to display there wares. What a debut for Williamson!! How good is  Sam Petrevski-Seton? Marchbank and Macreadie already look like 10 year veterans. Silvagni is growing with every game. Will be a star. Plowman is a star already. We have Charlie Curnow, Harry Mackay, Zac Fisher, Ciaran Byrne, Gallucci and Lebois standing in the wings. Add the return of Phillips. So much to be excited about.

I must have watched a different game.

Was impressed with the endeavor and heart today. Melbourne took till 20 mins into the last to put the game in the bag. Many on here predicted this mob will definitely play finals and made a good outfit look poor last week.

I know it's difficult to be positive when you have a loss but we must remember we had SOJ, C Curnow, Marchbank, SPS, mcCredie and Pickett all in today and curnow aside thought the rest were very serviceable. SOJ is the veteran of this list with 10games!!!

Hard to win with 6 players under 10 games.

Add in Weitering, plowman and cripps as more young players yet to notch 50 games and that's a very young team today.

While I'm disappointed with some of the costly errors from senior players and to lose yet again but I saw enough today to say we are tracking ahead of where I thought we would be.

I'm happy with the kids progress.

A bit of perspective needed folks.

Agree 100%. We all know what Cripps, Docherty and Weiters will bring in the next 10 years, but I already see Marchbank, Plowman, Macreadie and SPS becoming elite players. SOJ and Charlie are still very young, but I've no doubt they will become stars.

Pickett and Smedts could be anything. Love Matty Wright.

We have big Harry making huge strides with the NB's, Byrne and Phillips to return and the potential of highly rated youngsters such as Fisher, Cunningham, Lebois, Kerr and Polson.

We are in the second year of a rebuild. Expect us to target quality midfielders this draft.

When we are ready to challenge I expect that of the established players who played today only Murphy will still be there. Kreuzer has an outside chance.

Serious? I thought it was fantastic - the commentators of today are narcisstic wankers, these Two love the game first and foremost and how fantastic To see that loyalty exists within colleagues still nowadays!

Did it well. End of their telecast and it was brief but sincere. 40 years of brilliant commentary deserved to be recognized.

Saints have exposed us for pace twice this year and with the lightning quick GWS not far off their first premiership it's clear we need to draft quick players.

They did the same to Geelong. I agree with LP that it's a skill and commitment issue. I was really expecting us to come out with a new game plan to deal with the Saints after they toweled us up earlier in the season and I'm sure Bolts would have had a plan. Unfortunately too many players couldn't or wouldn't lift and our ball usage on far too many times was embarrassing. We don't necessarily need quick players. We need hard working intelligent footballers who will leave nothing out there after a game.
