Was absolutely shocking. If Bolton plays a blinder today straight in. You can't carry a guy with the worst disposal in the AFL.

So wrong. Castagna is the messiah returned.
 
Can't kick. Even worse at handballing.
But their is none else. Bolton needs a full preseason.
 
Jason stays.

Bolts lit it up but can't run out games.

Get a pre season into him working on fitness cause he is a talent and watch out.

Caos Castagna IN STILL.
 
I think "chaos boy" deserves his spot in the GF based on yesterday's performance. While I have been a big critic of him throughout the season, I think we just have to accept the brain farts, and hope that overall his good outweighs the bad.

The good being: the pressure acts, big body that can stand up in tackles (something that Bolton is too lightly framed to lay some of the tackles George did yesterday), and speed

The bad being: the diabolical disposal by hand and foot, poor decision making, and even more horrendous set shot kicking (often undoing all the good work from a forward passage of play, which can be a momentum killer).

Team is settled no changes for mine (unless forced).

Could have had a few more if he's kicks had have made the scoreboard. Disgraceful

God makes mistakes why can't George?
 
I was at the VFL grand final today.Shai is magic BUT cannot run out a full match with the required level of intensity we need. George stays imho.

Bolton needs a huge preseason. That's exactly how I saw it too. Bolton was trying his best to get to contests, but he isn't fit enough.
Next year and the following year will see a gun
 
Well played George - competed all day, nearly took a couple of species and kicked the goal when u had to - love your work!!
 
When he was around the ball & around the crows defenders he made them panick and they were constantly under pressure and made mistakes
George's influence can not be over looked in the grand final.

He is a role player and plays his role,Just needs to clean his disposals and that will come he his only 20/21 and a rookie
 
Earlier in the year he wasn't competitive in the air, but yesterday halved a number of contests which helped keep the ball at our end. Especially third quarter.

How many players at his age with horrible hand and foot skills have ever improved to the point where it has ceased to be an issue? I mean that's why he was selected as a rookie and not picked outright. His frenetic pressure alone will not stop the sheer class of Bolton and Stengle eventually taking his place. Still he'll always have his premiership medal and good luck to him.
 
Only had 10 pressure acts and again too many fumbles. 30% disposal efficiency. But hey he's a premiership player now so what would I know.
