Jade Gresham: Hi umpire can you explain the insufficient attempt to keep the ball in play rule?

Umpire: Yes, you kicking the ball off balance and under pressure went 30 metres infield from the line that could have bounced in any direction. took a turn and went out so was clearly you not having sufficient intent.

Jade: Ok great so can you show me one that was straight forward so I can compare against mine?

Umpire: Yes here's the vision of Weitering placing the ball straight to the boundary line out of play in the dying moments of the game against Geelong.

Jade: Oh great so that's a free against Carlton?

Umpire: Get to F mate you play under a different set of rules. "Throw it in" every time.

No more corrupt game in the world than umpiring in the AFL. The Brownlow is just the end state of it.

I know a lot of people aren’t buying in yet but my goodness I would kill for that Carlton midfield. Still got Walsh and Hewett to come back into it as well. They’ve probably got too many but I’d rather that then what we’ve experienced the last decade. Frustrating.

If Carlton play that fast footy they really should be top 4 this year.

Their list is really good now. The only issues for me is that small forward role. Motlop is the only one with any real X factor and he's still very raw. Owies, Durdin and Honey look a bit meh.

That Young bloke looks like a great replacement for Jones and Cowan looks like a 100 game player already. It's incredible how quickly a list can go from crap to excellent.

Voss has a list that is top 4, the pressure is on him to do something with it.

Most of their genuine stars have been there for many years.
 
I want to believe but unfortunately I think their pensioners will get into gear before long and they'll be right in the mix for yet another flag

Last year, 8-2 at the halfway point, 12-10 and 9th by end of season. They'll be a thing to believe in if they stop crapping themselves under the weight of expectation and sniffing their own bullshit.

"Oh no, we're third and people are starting to think we can win games and play finals, better fail spectacularly" is the Carlton motto for a decade.

You can get away with goals from your talls and pressure from your smalls (just look at Melbourne and Richmond and their premierships) but you can’t get away with a lack of talent and they’ve got it all over the park. It took a while but they’re loaded.

I was taking the piss
 
So we need IQ tests for different tv subscriptions now, got it.

I’m actually on board, I think people should need a license to breed, tv segregation should be no issue.
no we just need to look at their bigfooty alias

For a sweet moment there, I forgot that we were 8-3 last season… fmd

Carlton were the gift last year, for no matter how many problems internally we had and convos and such, the silver spoon, should be shitting gold, lemme sharpen my knives and cook club bottled it harder than we did and blessed us with crazy Vossy v the mafioso.
