AFL: The First Crack panel discuss the form of the Essendon Bombers, dissecting their clash against the St Kilda Saints and where they need to improve.
An AFL great has put the heat on Carlton after a disappointing display against Port Adelaide , urging them to rediscover their contested game – or risk their chances at a premiership tilt .
“It’s not where it was last year, or at the start of the season. Unless that changes, there will be trauma again at Carlton.”While the Blues are having no troubles getting their hands on the ball first , they are struggling to convert that into clearance and King believes that has become a “huge problem”.
Admittedly, the Blues were without star ruck Tom De Koning, injured winger Blake Acres and defender-turned-forward Zac Williams, but they aren’t the sole reason the Blues are out of form. He highlighted star defender Jacob Weitering as one, who always seems to have question marks over his fitness. “If they don’t defend like a premiership team and have that premiership level commitment, they are not going to win it this year,” he began.
