Came here to vent about Massimos kicking being elite

After watching that laser kick out of defence by Mass that set up a goal that never should’ve been, I am officially distraught by our inability to keep him.

D'Ambrosio's kicking. Amazing.

Unbelievable kick. It’s ridiculous that he only got picked up in the mid-season draft

 

[andleanback]

Blues system is poo. Voss ain’t making it out of this year

But apparently he doesn’t defend

What's more ridiculous is the club that drafted him and where he is playing now. What could have been.

 

[boncer34]

D'Ambrosio's kicking. Amazing.

Was in space refusing to defend. Absolute seagull.

Hawthorn free kicks first 3.5 quarters - 27
Hawthorn free kicks last 10 minutes - 1

Carlton free kicks first 3.5 quarters - 16
Carlton free kicks last 10 minutes - 8

Hard to argue it wasnt evened up.

Man Carlton have such a simple game plan. Win contested footy at stoppage, boot it forward to one of their star Forwards, and try and seal it in with weitering and McGovern.

Problem is Curnow can hardly move, and McKay sh!ts the bed in front of goal and they have no quick skillful small forwards outside of Motlop.

Injuries have absolutely hammered them, both short term and long term. No way they get the best out of Curnow, Walsh, Williams, McGovern, etc with the way they are strapped together. And man are they missing the classy disposal of Jagger Smith and Newman. Brutal. I mean f@ck Carlton, but this is a good list that has stagnated due to injuries to their most highly paid players.

Hasn't actually played a game yet.

Funny isn't it?

 

[Bipolar Bear]

I blame boncer34 and Bipolar Bear for this

I will defend this mangyboi with my life.

Carlton are ****ing SHIT!

Carlton are ****ing SHIT!

Isn't it great?

I actually keep thinking about your post about the mass C graders under their stars. Couldn't have been more spot on. And their stars are patchy and overrated imo.

 

[FlyingV]

Funny isn't it?

It’s amazing.

What’s even funnier is Voss has been spruiking ‘speed and power’ as their brand of footy.

Well they’re not quick and if by power they mean beating the living sh!t out of Cripps, Walsh and TDK at every stoppage then sure… power.

I mean god knows we have our own problems. But they are at least 4 years into their premiership window. It will shut pretty quickly if they’re not careful.

Even when they are pretty good they aren't a threat to the flag, this Hawkes club though, they know how to win em, could be a yuck end to this year. Wish they sucked.

That’s what happens when you don’t have to relearn how to be successful after a quarter of a century long hiatus.

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Carlton supporters are losing it.

They have a similar story to us but unlike us, they got teased into thinking they were actually good.

It’s the hope that kills you.

And they have had far better players on the list for a good 20 years

I think Carlton could be in some very deep shit in 2-3 years time.

Once the 2015 draft crop start slowing down and Cripps is cooked they’re ****ed. TDK sounds like he’s out the door too.

There’s not much coming through underneath and the draft will be incredibly compromised when they start going to shit.
