Master Splinter returns!

 

[Nunez]

How relevant is Tassie Devil these days - Warner Bros missed a great sponsorship opportunity!

 

[Section 5]

I just noticed the foxsports ladder is still in 2024 mode

 

[braddsey]

What a horrible mascot unless they want to scare the kids.

I give you the Tassie Rat

I like it! Perhaps you need to read the article to appreciate where it came from.
The bloody kneecaps are a good nod to Queenstown Oval - the gravel oval where Fages played his junior footy.
And having seen (and heard!) a group of tassie devils completely devour a wallabies carcass, they’re far from cuddly.
I’m sure this can be converted to a few thousand cute plush versions in china to be flogged off at Kmart.

If you compare to some of the terrible life size mascots that have existed around the league over the years, it’s a great effort. (Yes, i’m looking at you Bernie Gabba Vegas!).

I’m not watching but apparently Vossy said pregame that theyre considering playing Weitering onball.

All I can say is: DA DA DA DA DA DA

 

[Grasshopper17]

They look awful. Again. Lucky to be within a goal. So many terrible shallow inside 50 entries.

 

[Grasshopper17]

Silvagni the only Carlton player actually engaging his brain and combining that with a bit of heart. So out of place in this team.

 

[Section 5]

Good half of footy
Can the Blues repeat the effort for another 2 quarters
On last week's effort probably not.

I hope the Blues get the win, only so the Hawks are not 3-0.

 

[Gadzorks]

I can't get kayo to do anything other than the spinning wheel of death.

I pay good money to be frustrated.

For tonight go over to channel 74 or 73.

I had problems with Kayo last week and knew it was not an internet connection problem
I did what another poster recommended and cleared the cache and data on the App.
I had to sign in again after doing that. It has been fine since.

If that did not work i was going to uninstall Kayo and reinstall it.

Ugggh gunston

 

[Crimso]

Ugggh gunston

And again.

 

[martinson]

Ugggh gunston

He's actually moving a bit better than when he was with us.

Still I'd be happy to see him in there when we play them.

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Carlton have had their chances to win tonight, but they just have no idea once the ball is being contested in their f50

 

[Harris Specter]

Despise these Hawks

 

[morsie]

So how many Carlton players would make our 23? De Kon I ng,Curnow? Anyone else?

 

[Darren Downunder]

Despise these Hawks

Yeah, but they are a bloody good side. They will hard to beat, I reckon.

 

[martinson]

The problem for Carlton is that their weakest 4 players are pretty much liabilities so if 4 of their guns don't have very good games they're going to struggle to win.

Hawthorn have a lot of flexibility and having the luxury of playing Sicily forward or back depending on circumstances is a big advantage. They're very much in love with themselves but until someone works them out they'll win most games with many good young players still flying under the radar.

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

I reckon Voss has deliberately chosen to have that post-loss address to his players in front of the cameras. He could've waited until they were all in the conference room but didn't. That was for the benefit of Carlton fans who need to see club leaders standing up

 

[martinson]

Whoever the commentator was just said the Hawks and Giants game was a tantalising prospect with the 2 best coaches in the game at the moment along with Chris Scott...

Ok.

 

[Section 5]

Blues much better tonight.
A high-pressure game from both sides.
Blues lost McKay before the game and Curnow was hardly sighted. Result marks I50 Hawks 13 Blues 5
Same number of scoring shots. Blues hit the post 3 times and had two goals overturned.

I think playing the Hawks you need to slow things down a bit.
We meet them in round 11 & 24 with the Blues clash round 18

Carlton tried to fight fire with fire and it worked until their luck turned.

Hawthorn have many avenues to goal . Yeah you need to break up their rhythm and give them the time to think about it. Otherwise they just cut you up.

Carlton are like what we used to be like ( but lack the emerging skilled players).
Playing with some intensity but had little time for keeping possession or uncontested marks. It's a bloody taxing way to play.
But having said that,you have to work a lot harder off the ball to create space and multiple avenues to pllay possession footy. Are they just too slow.

I reckon we got the Hawks measure. We won't be kicking it back to them on mass for an easy coast to coast goal.
It's going to be epic when we play the Hawks at the G R11.
Back to Carlton , I mean where are they, maybe it was just some of their senior players just playing so poorly at critical moments.
Doc looked cooked, or was he underdone, nah cooked , those dropped marks, fumbles arh.
It's hard to put a line through Carlton just yet though considering a lot of us put a line through out team last year ,but they an't even close to our list.
Carlton bottom six I'll call it now.
They never should of sacked Ratten, all fell apart after that.

Whatever culture they had was destroyed when they sacked him.
