To be fair he has always shown glimpses. It's just abundantly clear now he'll never put it all together, or even some of it together at this rate...
Showed glimpse against the 4th best tall defender after Walker, Lynch and Jenkins. He now take the 1st or 2nd best tall defender with MacKay playing or 2nd or 3rd best tall defender with both MacKay and Curnow playing.....this for a $800K player????
 
The annoying thing is all the media harping on Gov and Betts the last few weeks for pedestrian at best performances gives me a bit of schadenfreude to see them give the Blues 7 disposals and a goal combined in 3/4 of football.
Eddie had his one game against Geelong. Poor one first up, last week and this one.

Small thing but pet peeve of mine.

Tonight the colours are correct

St Kilda whiter guernsey plus white shorts

Carlton all navy

Umpires fluoro yellow

It's not that hard is it? Even a small thing like the home/away shorts being the other way around would have made it unwatchable.

I assume the guy usually in charge is on leave this week. Long service hopefully.
The change of game threw them into chaos, they didn't know what was happening.

It just shows you how biased certain sections of the media become now he's back in Melbourne.

It's like I was saying last year how Hawkins had a 3 week patch, including a losing final where he didn't kick a goal and not a single word was said about it. Now imagine the reaction if it was Tex who ended the year like that?

Glimpses were never enough to command the sort of money they've paid, getting a first rounder for him was borderline robbery.

Tex and Jack Riewoldt have had identical seasons to date.

I'm not sure if he's being instructed differently, he just never seems to be in position anymore to launch at the ball when it comes inside 50. He's got Casboult and Mackay in the side to take talls, he should be like he was with us where he was flying into packs to take marks.

I love the spirit on the Blues board, "if only we turned up in the 1st quarter".

Saints basically iced the game from that point onwards.

Another year, another more likely situation they miss the 8, Cripps will eventually look for a new Club to play finals footy.
