Spargo - dropped for Garlett

Salem - quieter but classy

Brayshaw - impressive and inspiring 

Hibberd - there when needed

Jetta - quiet but effective

[Robbie57 2,021]

can't agree on Hogan. Played well all game and made lots of opportunities for others.

A lot of right statements but a few well off in my opinion.

[In Harmes Way 7,796]

Tyson - missing all day

[Jaded No More 68,966]

Oliver gets 26 touches and 6 score involvements and we’re like “meh” 

[Adzman 2,154]

Brendon Bolton - won't sleep tonight

His team got picked apart at the seams. Great performance from the Dee's, insipid performance by Carlton players.

I said that at half time in the game day thread. I thought he was average and only had 8-9 possessions, had a look and he was leading all with 14.

[Vagg 2,439]

A broken finger and surgery earlier in the week will do that...!

Spargo kept Simpson to 19 touches, a great defensive effort

Was that his job? If so brilliant 

[Wiseblood 24,637]

Most are spot on, although the comments on Spargo are way off the mark.  Unless they want to rest him there is no chance he is getting dropped for Garlett.  His footy smarts, toughness and pressure acts are invaluable at the moment.

I’m disappointed at the lack of Clarry Choo Choo love in your favourite player section.

Jono Brown talked it up during the game, he ended up with 4 direct goal assists and a hand in multiple others. Great sign of maturity that he doesn't have to kick a bag to have a big impact on the game. Suggest joeboy has another look at the game.

[praha 11,240]

Tough on Vince. He had one bad kick out and everyone acts like he's a massive liability. Been solid all season.

[Jibroni 5,004]

Very enjoyable Sunday!!

Are we talking Liam or Nathan here?  Think carefully about your answer.

Yup he'll have one bad kick and at the same time be the player willing to take the risks successfully kicking down the corridor when our backs are against the wall. Really important player at the moment. Was more worried about him trying to take players out again rather then the one errant kick.
