where is Bentick?

[J-Ro-20]

Hello Carlton people,

just wondering what happened to Bentick?

I picked him up as top draft pick as my tackler in the dream team game the bench - www.thebench.com.au

he had an awesome 07 season and was right up there with Kirk in the tackles. Whats going on with him? I thought he was going to be a gem for the Blues.

He will be in the seniors this week. There are other players who should be back in the VFL instead of him. His kicking is better than most people give him credit for & he is the best in & under player at the club by a mile. In both the NAB Cup game against Hawthorn & the game against Richmond, we were badly beaten in the clearances. This is one of the few stats we were good at last year with Bentick in the team.

This is what happens when you drink the water in South Australia.

Jobe watson is slow & can't kick he did all right yesterday.(good footy brain though, much better than Bentick)

If Bentick doesn't improve his leg & hand speed this year then I think he's finished.He should be handballing instead of kicking anyway.

we need his hardness at the ball
he will put his body on the line
and cop one for the team
alot more than i can say about alot of other carlton players

Better yet, why wasn't Pfieffer given a game last week, He was a standout in the Nab cup game against Port and wasn't too bad against the hawks the following week, after that I haven't seen any of him, is he injured or something??

Not bad. Tough on Hadley but yeah, some match fitness in the magoos might not hurt.

cheers
yeh i dig hadley
i just think that he needs a bit more fitness
and the height and mongrel is needed to be added into the team

 

[TorresIsGod]

Hadley and Banno will stay in.

In: Fisher, Hampson, Kreuzer and one of Bentick/Pfeiffer
Out: Hartlett (susp), Grigg, Bower, Edwards

Sadly for Edwards, with Fisher and Kreuzer both playing forward, I cannot see a spot for him?...

 

[prettyboy65]

i thought edwards played well
i think based on how dangerous st kildas forwards are he is worth keeping in
just to try and stretch the saints defence

I hope Edward's never gets another game. He was crap
Bannister stays in the team, he wasn't our worst player by a long shot

You run a wicked line in sarcasm.

The blokes who should be out are pretty simple in my opinion.

Firstly, Ryan Houlihan = soft as butter. We are going nowhere if he, Scotland, Stevens are in the same side. Too many soft co@ks in our side.

Secondly, Jordan Bannister = absolute rubbish should not be allowed to play in our side

Thirdly, Heath Scotland (don't laugh) - gave away three goals through soft rubbish efforts and also he is happy to get cheap around the back of the pack kicks ala Carazzo.

Kruezer won't be playing for a little while yet as his hip is causing some problems. Fisher In, Hammer in if fit, Bentick if fit (at least he has got some balls).

My point is that anyone who has been scarred by the last six years should not be there at year's end. Get rid of the blokes who have been part of the rubbish of the last six years.

thats a bit harsh
ryan houlihan is one of our most experienced players
and on the current list he has played more games for carlton than all others on the list
bannister needs to show something soon
heath scotland is a quality midfielder and we cant afford too loose him
kruezer is expected to return this week

 

[reddevils88]

i know it is only round 1 but the bombers have shown pace, the tigers have shown heart, bulldogs pace and heart. Melbourne and ourselves really didn't show a great deal. I know we have to be patient but we will not win games of football without a quality ruck pair (hopefully hammer and Kruze control) and 3/4 decent defenders. Our midfield is very good and our forwards (with waite and fisher up there) is also potent. We would have been better playing geelong in round

Scotland was piss poor on thursday, his attack on the ball was pathetic, causing those goals to be kicked against us.
He should go before bannister, and hoops, is one of the best kick's we have, I can excuse Juddy and stevens for running out of legs, but Gibb's game was makeing me want to chuck, he looked like a gutless little wonder, unlike Murphy he at least went hard at the ball when given a chance. Edwards had the chance to give us a run on, and couldnt make it count, we dont need someone that can get the ball, we need someone that can put it thru the sticks when it matters.

Im sick and tired of all the behinds we kick week after week, costing us games, dont you think that disheartens the players work ethic seeing all those behinds being kicked, instead of makeing it count. I know it does me
