SEN co-host Andy Maher has questioned Carlton’s decision to select veteran Levi Casboult for Sunday’s match against Sydney.
Casboult, who was managed for the Round 10 win over Hawthorn, was one of two inclusions to face the Swans with Luke Parks and Josh Honey named as emergencies.
Maher says Casboult looked “completely lost” playing down back as the decision to play four talls at the SCG backfired on the Blues.
“I’ve just got to say one thing … this isn’t anti-Levi Casboult,” Maher told SEN’s Bob and Andy.
“Why do you pick him and then play him at times as a lockdown defender and other times a floating defender and other times a genuine centre half-back? He’s played no football there, he was lost, completely lost.
“It’s as unfamiliar a part of the ground for him as any. This was a terrible decision to play him there, terrible decision to play him there.
“They were big on a small ground and they levered him into a position that he’s not suited to playing in. It was gobsmacking.
“It’s not Levi, this is on the match committee.”
Carlton went down by 22 points after being in the contest up until three-quarter time.
Casboult finished with six disposals and three marks in Sunday's loss. The 31-year-old comes out of contract at the end of the season.
