Has anyone mentioned Lord.
I can't recall seeing him since quarter time.
Has he been put away for tonight?

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

Yeah he does.

That was tough to watch near the end.

Like the seniors, we do some really good and then some really not good.

he had 7 or 8 possessions at quarter time.  Ended with 10. If he does play tonight thats pretty poor man management you'd say.

Cody had 25 possessions in his first game at the level, and he didn't get on the ground when we were playing well in the 1st quarter. 4 clearances, 2 tackles and some real gems.
Live Long and Prosper!

Doesnt panic and has the moves to get out of trouble. Interviewed after the game, says goes into the club every day as if he is on the list already. That answerss my question as to whether we would pass on him at the end of the year, the answer is categorically no.

Does Carlton practice butchering the ball and is it part of the team plan?

Got hand it to them, both AFL and VFL are consistent with their approach.

Maybe not.
Our three emergencies were Lewis Young, Flynn Young and Lord.
It may be we're looking fine for tonight with no late outs.

But if we were to get one, in warmups say... then we need one of these guys to come in.
So we give Lord a quarter and a bit so he doesn't miss a week of football.
If he's needed as a late in we haven't tuckered him out.
But chances are he will just be on standby.

From the statistics:

[1] George Hewett deserves to be ack in the seniors. he managed 31 possessions, 2 goals 2, 6 clearances, 1 tackle. The 1 tackle bothers me a bit, considering.

[2] Apart from a couple of ordinary moments, Billy Wilson played another good one. 26 possessions and his run from defence and long kicking is excellent.

[3] Cody Walker was out best best possession getter and he didn't play much early. He was crucial in our comeback in the 3rd.

[4] Lachlan Fogarty: Fog may have got it 23 times today, with 6 tackles, but his thinking! Doesn't make quick decisions at all. Should have 3 other shots on goal.

[5] Our rucks broke even on the day, but their limitations were obvious. HOK is struggling and not doing any role particularly well. Riley was better.

[6] Chesser disappointed. 15 possessions and not the impact we really need.

[7] We had a lot more of the ball, but we are a high possessions team, not very efficient. We had 12 frees to 30, which is something that needs addressing. We really need to complain, and in the seniors as well.
We actually lost the clearance battle, 28 to 33. We had 46 tackles compared to 26. That was a big plus!
Live Long and Prosper!

Walker has to be a definite in for the AFL side next week.
Oh...wait ::)  :(

Don't think any of our players showed enough to get promoted.
Hewett's a possibility, but probably not as good as last week.
Flynn Young and Wilson had a couple of 'bad' moments but were involved.
A lot will depend on how we go tonight.

Lord was good early.   He went off the game changed...  😀

Hewett and acres shouldn't play vfl for too long.  Both of them are too good for this level. 

Of the rest, ison put his hand along with Wilson and young.  Charleson is interesting.  Can see him getting a go soon.

The trouble is in the 3rd all of them made poor decisions at times.
