GOALS: Jaksch 2, Johnson 2, Jones 2, Watson, Dirago, Murray
DISPOSALS: Whiley 20, Strachan 19, Johnston 18, Dirago 18, Jones 17, Jaksch 15.
From this I would suggest that not many Carlton players had a good day; Jaksch and Jones being the exceptions. Whiley having 20 possessions is not amongst his best games, but he may get into the best players. Jones appears to have played a bit in the ruck and managed to get a few more possessions. The question with him would be how effective were they?
No mention of Blaine Boekhorst or Matthew Dick, so they were probably on the plane to Perth.
No mention of Byrne after quarter time (where he had been pretty good in the 1st quarter), nor of Foster, who also started well. No mention of Viojo Rainbow after half time (he had a good 2nd quarter) and not mention of Smith at all.
Boek in Perth.
Byrne had his hammy iced in the second.
