Rd 3:   Carlton vs GWS
A win is a win, but particularly at a ground where we’ve rarely won. Also, we won travelling interstate, another thing we haven’t done much of for a long time. As such, I’ll take it.

Rating:      B
In the circumstances, I’ll take it. But I hope we can do better against North.

Votes:
[3]   Nick Newman
[3]   Patrick Cripps
[2]   Sam Docherty
[1]   Adam Cerra
[1]   Adam Saad
[1]   Blake Acres
[1]   Jack Silvagni
[1]   Charlie Curnow
[0.5]   Jesse Motlop
[0.5]   Marc Pittonet
[0.5]   Jacob Weitering
[0.5]   Mitch McGovern

Explanations:
[3]   Nick Newman:      Destroyed his opponent and got the ball a lot.
[3]   Patrick Cripps:      42 possessions and 13 clearances.
[2]   Sam Docherty:   best game for the year so far. Brilliant, especially in the 3rd quarter.
[1]   Adam Cerra:   Very solid game from Cerra.
[1]   Adam Saad:   Not as brilliant as he has been, but still did a great job.
[1]   Blake Acres:   Excellent, even though injured.
[1]   Jack Silvagni:   Best game for a while. He got a lot of the ball and made great decisions.
[1]   Charlie Curnow:   If he could have kicked straight, we’d be lauding this game, as he played well on a really good opponent. Alas, he kicked 2 goals 4! Could have had 7 or 8!
[0.5]   Jesse Motlop:   Promising.
[0.5]   Marc Pittonet:   Good job in the ruck and around the ground.
[0.5]   Jacob Weitering:   Destroyed his opponent again.
[0.5]   Mitch McGovern:   Really solid job across half back.

Honourable Mentions:
Matthew Owies:   Brilliant until he did his hamstring. Would have got votes if he’d played the full game.
Corey Durdin:      Really good negatively, but needs more possessions.
George Hewett:   Not at his normal form, clearly looking after his hand, but still got a fair bit of the ball.
Zac Fisher:   Normally, if he’d had this many possessions he’d have had a lot more impact. But he didn’t have the impact I’d prefer.
Tom de Koning:   Almost vote worthy. Good job in the ruck, but needs to work on his disposal.

I'll leave this open for another day, but I don't expect much action from this point.
