Round 2 West Coast v Carlton - Friday 10th Domain Stadium

[Mat0369]

tbh Clem Smith shouldn't really be playing AFL this year

He 100% doesn't have the tank yet. Does a couple of good things with his attack on the ball but needs to build a fitness base. I didn't think he would play considering how he played most of last week and we couldn't risk an early injury and him having to play a full game on the longest ground in the league.

He was named the sub for a good reason.

Unfortunately for Carlton, they've had to bring him on in the first quarter two games in a row.

Needs time in the VFL though, plenty of it.

Shouldn't even be a sub. I'd be very worried if he gets selected in the 22 again next week

Yeah pretty much

Lol, how is Priddis only on 54. Has felt like he should be on a bit more than that.

Skin folds and beep test were horrible at the combine, it's the main reason he fell as far as he did.

DE of 50 and 4 clangers.

I can't believe he is on 54 ... He is made loads and loads of clangers and been ineffective

[Mat0369]

Simmo is getting slightly shafted but it might be due to not a lot of meters gained with his disposal. He had a couple marks and 3 kicks that hit the target for like 7 points. Most of the kicks were lateral though

That was always the worry with Clem. Too tubby and no tank. It's showing really badly.

So his standard game then :P

I thought 12 contested, 6 clearances and 4 tackles would have more than offset the 4 clangers. maybe not at 50% DE thought

I thought players got points for marks from the opposition ... I am shocked he isn't on something like 60 ... But practically everything he has had has been uncontested ball so perhaps the scoring is fair ...

yikes 18 possesions at 50% DE :-X

Backwards kicks are worth less this year.

Docherty is pricking up my ears
