Robert Heatley Stand / Re: Jim Park Voting AFL Rd 5 2026 Carlton vs Adelaide
Last post by rocky -
Team: C

3  Pittonet - His best season by far, so far.
3  Cripps - Busted his arse all night. No help from the maggots. If only he could kick.
2  Walsh - On a flyer until our coach stopped his momentum
1  E Hollands - Creative as always. If only he was faster.
1  Haynes - Was a different player after the rain storm in the 3rd
1  Carroll - I think this bloke doesn't get enought credit. Works hard. Good kick
1  McGovern - Consistantly pops up with a couple of goals
1  Newman - Our best defender.
1  McKay - Did not get outmarked. Presented at every opportunity. Brought the ball to ground. Can't ask for more on a wet night.
1  Evans - Don't understand the hate for Frankie. ALWAYS tries to create something from nothing. 6 tackles (4 i50), 5 I50's and kicks a goal. Not bad for the little man

I think Billy is a lot better value than you make out EB, at least he has pace, something out list has very little of.  That puts him ahead of plonker like Boyd et al
Thats fair enough Prof, each to there own with opinions on players, Im probably swimming against the tide with regards my views on Billy but we will see how he works out for the season.

Sorry but Wilson would be delist material if I was list Manager, wouldn't get a game at any other club imo.
Getting cheap possessions in the VFL and then picking him and playing on the best player in the comp would be the type of lunacy our MC and coaching staff specialize in...

We'll bookmark this one and see how it pans out. ;)  :D
A few of Billy's cheap possessions.

His attributes are exactly what we need, is he ready to go? If so, get him in.

Wilson is a VFL player and regardless how fast he can run you cant put that calibre of player on the best player in the comp and expect to get a reasonable result.

He will get slaughtered.....Nick would have 40 plus on him....Wilson is barely VFL standard.

I personally wouldn't do it.
He's more an attacking half back and probably lacking a bit in terms of match fitness following an interupted pre-season

But seriously...."barely VFL standard."

The "barely VFL standard" player had our second most possessions in the VFL last week.
I wouldn't be the least surprise if the "barely VFL standard" player is in the side against Collingwood.
But I'm not sure Daicos is the match-up.
Boyd is barely VFL standard, Wilson is more than VFL, almost ready for AFL. Has the tools, decision making is the issue as far as I can see.
