I wanted one coach moved back to his old role.. and I do agree that Carlisle had the ability to play forward (see my posts last year and in the pre-season)..

MY point was that he needed to 'go back' and find FORM.. which is EXACTLY what happened. So thank you.
I seem to remember you saying Bomber had lost the playing group also, it's ok Fonzy, just happily admit you were very wrong and we can move on...
 
Easily the best performance from an Essendon forward since Lloydy kicked 13. Sure Lloyd had days out after that, as did Lucas, but I can't remember any of those been as dominant - at least for a whole game.

Time for man avatar upgrade...check out the buckets on this bloke...
 
Damn he was amazing today. Genius coaching move from Bomber to keep him forward, he really has fast tracked our development this year!
 
Actually I think I'm underselling Lloyd a bit (so pumped about Jake), but Carlisle's game today was as good as any of Lloyd at his best.
Yeah nah....You were right the first time, you're underselling Lloyd, but it's great to have someone we can actually compare to lloydy... Well played Jake...blitzed..

Fair point, it's been a bloody long time since we had a forward who looked like he could pluck any ball in his area.

Dumbass journo to Bomber: 'What sort of confidence do you think he (Carlisle) is playing with?'

See, it's those kind of Lane-esque questions that understandably make Mick a grumpy old man.

Oh, and Bomber's response to said dumbass question: 'That's not a good question.' Haha!!
 
Tradition/superstition now dictates that Carlisle turn up to a Footscray event this week.

My personal nomination is at the session where the defenders will be reviewing tape so Carlisle can stand up front and walk them through each of his marks/goals (it may be a long session).
 
When he comes from anywhere between 2 and 10 deep in a pack, he should be giving it the old 'YOINK!!' as he comes over the top, WADA-style.

I vote we change the thread title to Jake 'WADA' Carlisle
