Match Discussion Carlton v Geelong Round 9 2011

[Anzac16]

Great effort from the boys, thought we deserved the win. Beat Geelong all night and just got robbed....

Terrible miss from Warnock but can't solely blame him.

Just pissed we lost, really didn't deserve to lose...

Tomorrows header is a no brainer.

Turnovers Cost Us: Ratten

 

[djudd]

hope scotland plays for 2 more years

 

[Poseidon]

31 taps is not useless

Yeah we get it, he's tall and can touch the ball before the other ruckmen. Shame in every other facet he's bloody useless.

 

[captn carlton]

Well done boys !



spewn .....

how many games has warnock played ?

 

[blue gunslinger]

Cannot wait for Kreuzer to come in and then we never see the giant with the heart the size of a pea again.

poor execution hardly means the lad has a pea of a heart
lets see the doomsayers go crazy
Ratts to be fired
Bring back Fev
Why don't we play at princess park anymore
etc etc

 

[Vin Catoggio]

Not sure how to feel ....what's the concensus?

 

[Dr Awkward]

Bad luck, you guys should have won I thought you played better but that often happens with Geelong.

The sooner you can get Kreuzer in and Warnock out the better.

 

[blue gunslinger]

OK so Warnock is Hampson and Hampson is useless
Who do you guys want in the ruck?
Ellard is good but come on

 

[Monkey King]

Exactly just watch the game and you will see his taps dont go to anyone

They never have. He often just taps down to the ground in front of him. Should have won that game and it falls squarely on his shoulders. Hope he uses it to make himself better.

Great effort by the boys though to take the unbeaten ladder leader so close to what should have been a win. H&A points is what this is, but boy it bodes well for finals.

 

[viking12]

no excuse for that miss, worst kick

 

[Big Sim]

Could have, probably should have won it. Their experience got them through.

Good effort by the Blues though.

Totally agree. We had our chances, had a lot of chances tbh.

Reckon we've played the best 2 teams this year, and done ok.

Blokes like Laidler, Duigan showed the have the mettle.

I think its fair to say hes no glenn archer sleeps with the light on you would think

I thought we were blaming the umps

 

[Max Pepsi]

Time to face facts. To be true top 4 you have to be ruthless & flick Mclean. He is just not up to it. He is tough sure but way too slow & how many turnover kicks did he dish up?

 

[blue gunslinger]

1st time we have scored 100pts since the GC game isn't it

 

[Sin City]

Not sure how to feel ....what's the concensus?

Good step forward. Disappointing as a win would've helped our ladder position immensely but we know we can really match it with the best now.

 

[Alpha1]

Once again falling asleep and letting them back in, we were lucky in a few games when we did this. But against one of the best teams in the AFL you cannot afford to do that, great courage and determination.

Skills once again being shown up against a good team, but we tried till the end and can't ask for more.

 

[Monkey King]

I thought we were blaming the umps

The Stokes dropping the ball miss was a shocker, as was Duigan hurting the poor old umps feelings and him subsequently gifting the Cats a goal ... perhaps the blame can be shared.

Slowest player on the ground tonight--------------yes???????

 

[Big Sim]

Yes he choked and rest assured he feels absolutely shattered. But he tried his guts out for the whole match.

No disgrace in a loss like that.

Stokes only took 2 steps fair call i thought

 

[RU_]

Don't blame Warnock. The kick was a shitter, however EVERY other miss is to blame as well. Just because of certain timing doesnt mean shit.

 

[blue gunslinger]

we lost by 2 points to the ladder leaders and on paper were the better team
that is a bloody good effort and we can point the finger and blame whatever
I choose to applaud some fantastic efforts by Scotland Waite Duigan Laidler Murph Simmo etc
