Re: 2018 Rd 5: Jim Park Voting: Carlton vs West Coast Reply #19 – April 23, 2018, 10:30:24 am Team B-A much improved EFFORT - across the board let down by some atrocious mistakes and a lack of awareness when moving forward (not lowering the eyes).But a massive improvement on the previous three rounds in terms of intensity.5 - Cripps3 - Flip (nullified NicNat somehow)2 - Jones1 - Rowe1 - Fisher1 - McKay1 - Thomas1 O'Brien (liked his effort, intent and left foot - even if it didn't always work)

At 1/2-time we almost doubled them in the ruck for clearances and hitouts to advantage, by the end of the game they had almost doubled our match totals. We hardly added a ruck stat in several critical areas after 1/2-Time, and that was mostly Lycett giving them the momentum.

There were no commentators or biased influencers around me. I thought Phillips competed very strongly throughout the whole game and I was surprised that he was able to run out the 4 quarters. Much of what he did didn't trouble the statisticians BUT he did make room for Cripps, Dow and Fisher to gather the ball on several occasions. The fact that Natanui wasn't able to dominate was due in part to Phillips' competitiveness.

Not arguing, Naitanui was pretty ordinary against us, he likes jumping over rucks but when he comes up against someone who jumps as high or higher he's just an average ruckmen. When fit Kreuzer has him comfortably covered for game impact. As you mention shepherding, making space, blocking for smalls is far more important than taps or the odd average mark around the ground.It was Lycett who set the tone for Wet Toast after 1/2 time.
