Re: AFL Rd 7 2024 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs Geelong

Our major problem at the moment is that Lewis Young has no confidence in his ability.......and the backline players themselves (Weltering, Newman, Williams Boyd, Kemp) have no confidence in him either after having the likes of McGovern, Saad, Docherty down back who they could rely on.
Bring in McGovern for Young and see the difference.
I don’t see that at all. Young’s contested possessions and spoils are comparable with Weitering’s and Kemp’s and his teammates don’t hesitate to give him the ball if he’s the best option.
He was the victim of some good blocks by the Geelong forwards, some poor umpiring decisions and poor play by his teammates up the field, but his game was more than adequate.
