Crocker is killing them this 2qtr.
The only question is will he have that strength to hold off and the speed to defeat AFL defenders on the lead.

Crocker's got all the smarts no question about that, he's a class above the VFL kids around him. A footballer surrounded by athletic robots.

A lot of talk about why our skills, in the 1s, are so poor.   O’Brien hasn’t missed a target in this game.  Can’t hit one in the 1s.   Is it between the ears?  Is it pressure applied in the 1s?

Is it when, how and where our AFL targets lead?

They don't get dumped at VFL like you do at AFL.

Speed of the game and pressure...

I think Crocker is playing himself onto the list mid year..

Hopefully it's our list. Like a real smaller forward rather than the pretend ones we are trying to create.

Liked TDK, Kennedy, Willo & Newman that qtr... of the AFL listed blokes.

Better from Setterfield - must have got a rocket at qtr time.

If Crocker keeps up this form... hard to see him not be snapped up onto an AFL list.

Ramsay and Honey got into the game a little more that qtr.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

Just realised why we were "5hit" in the 1st qtr. We were kicking into a howler of a win. Actually we did well.

2 goals into the wind. Very handy!

I'd still have Parson or Wooler ahead of Crocker.

Fans might like watching Crocker at VFL level, but he is not going to displace BigH, McGovern or Levi as a KPF, and I don't think he is fast and mobile enough to get a role on the flank. Which I think is a pity, because Crocker looks good enough.

Could Crocker get a gig if Betts retires, can he play the crumbing FP at AFL level?

If they play well, just take them. In this case, best available. You're unlikely to find many from that draft who'll make it so if there's one, get him. Goes well in the air and on the ground, like I saw just then. He'll go ok on the flank.

We could do a lot worse.
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time
2025-Carlton can win the 2025 AFL Premiership

Crocker very clean below his knees.
