If Judd and Cousins played at Carlton in place of Stevens and Campo they wouldn't be performing anywhere near as good and they would be copping a kickin from half the people here because they can't carry an aweful football team.
Exactly the point! If I asked you to pick one player outside (Kouta, Campo and Stevens) to get me 25+ possessions tomorrow, who would you come up with?
Johnson? Scotland maybe? Then you start looking at the half-back flankers. (Houla and Lappin). But really there is no one!
We have three blokes that you have to stop. That's all!!!
Have a look at Geelong.
Corey, Ling, Milburn, Enright, Ablett, Kelly, Chapman and Bartel
West Coast
Cousins, Fletcher, Braun, Embley, Kerr and Judd.
The biggest dissapoint for me this season is the lack of improvement from the 21-24 year olds.
Have Wiggins, Davies, Bannister, Sporn and Johnson etc raised their hand and said "Denis I deserve to be put in the middle. Give me a crack for 3 quarters!"
Where is our Daniel Cross? Our Lindsay Gilbee or Shane Tuck? Or even our Luke Ablett?
We keep bagging our senior core, but none of the middle range players have stepped up to the plate to take any of the slack.
Crisis creates opportunity and we have A LOT of opportunity and no-one is taking it!
Peter Riccardi would get paid more then majority of the Cats midfield. Hasn't stopped Chapman playing good football.
Campo, Stevens and Kouta need help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Campo Kouta do need financial help because there is never going to be enough money to look after these guys.
If they need help and all they care about was footy and not dollars.. they would take a pay cut and we can afford to bring in more quality players.
so they dont really care abiout the help as much as the dosh!!!... or is that hard for you to understand Shakin..???
Wiggo Sporn would put up their hand is they wernt too busy chasing Campo and Koutas loose men around the ground as well as keeping an eye on their own.
there has never ever been a midfield with the experience of ours that has been so unnacountable.
I struggle to think of any club whos leaders are so weak and been so average when it comes to leadership as ours.
If you can think of any please let me know...
the Campo kouta thing needing help is bullshit!!!
Stop kidding yourself..!!!
Stop rationalising to yourself.!!!!
Stop being stupid!!!!
Help in a salary cap comes with money being distributed more evenly....
You have to be dumb to think that when a couple of players are making so much money there can be no help!!!!
Want Arkemanis to help them out ???
Who is going to help out a couple of blood suckers who cant perform????
WHO????
Who do they want to help them????
WHO??????
Theyre sucking up 1.5 million between them... throw in Lance and Stevens and there is 2.5 million from a salary cap of 6.2 m,illion...
So how will they be helped??????
HOW??????
Oh yeah... the players who get 50k will pick up the slack.. and when i say SLACK... i mean SLACK!!!!!
Theyre going to get the money and the other players will do the heaavy lifting?????
