Oops, sorry about that, I don't mean to put you off posting, It's just that it's been a bit bad in here at times lately with so much negativity.

4 and 6, same as last year, but we have played more top 8 sides this year, so far

The win. Sure a scrap but we won. Shout out to Zac Will for his second half. Building

Look it was ugly but I'll take it especially considering our win/loss ratio against hawthorn in recent time.
Williams started too look decent just needs to tidy up his disposal. Saad also provided a lot which was good to see from our two recruits.
Had my doubts about owies and betts tbh but if they keep kicking a couple every game they're doing the job.
Bring on next week

The Collingwood game is the one out of all of our losses that still upsets me the most, we should never have lost to them.

Hurts, but timing is everything. They had no injuries to best 22 when we played them
Wish we were playing them now
Like most years at this point, 5-6 sides fighting for 1-2 spots in the 8

Can’t emphasise how much of a fan I am of Liam Stocker!!
There’s so much to look forward to there, he’ll prove every critic wrong and some IMO...

Nothing like a Carlton win to get you in the mood!
absoeffinglutely
100% correct
being named Plowman on this board...
He hunts the ball ferociously doesn’t lose his feet or give away away frees he’s very aware in congestion looking every bit AFL midfielder

Can't pretend that all is well after that game.
Positives were we tightened up defensively in that second half. The leakage toward the end of the second quarter was absolutely dreadful so to their credit at least that was rectified.
Williams - best game by far. Was good to see the boys get around him for his first goal but for me the most pleasing thing was that he wasn't feeling 100%, had his knee strapped early in the game and he didn't let it deter him, he put his best foot forward still. Hopefully this is the catalyst, he needs to be at half back like we've been screaming for when it was obvious it wasn't going to work as a mid.
Eddie Betts - have to say I didn't see this past month coming. He has been pretty good considering his age. I really liked how he was getting down the other end of the ground to help out when the pressure was on and the Hawks were pressing early in the last quarter. Thought that was a really important decision by him.
Owies - Keeps growing, he puts pressure on, he lays tackles, he impacts the scoreboard. Exactly what you'd ask for from a small forward.
JSOS - Got through unscathed. Hopefully the footy gods are in his corner now and he can get an injury free run for the rest of the season. His footy IQ continues to impress. There's always a few "almost" or "spent it before he had it" moments with him, it's as if his mind and body aren't in tune, his brain is ahead. In time it'll be like 2nd nature.
Stocker - has great endeavour. He really looks like a natural, some moments could have been better but the significant thing is that he just looks a player.
Walsh - superstar. Can't believe how many frees against he copped early in that last quarter. He's just got this iron will and won't be denied.
Thought the captains were very good today too. Crippa laid 10 tackles, exactly what we need from him. Doc just looks like he's playing with less pressure and really becoming a weapon for us.
Newman was pretty good. Similar to Parks tackle on Tippa a month ago, his tackle on that Hawks ruckman in the goal square turned the game imo.
TDK was an important inclusion. Needs to tidy up his kicking but it was great to finally see him out there instead of Casboult. Took some good marks, almost made a meal of his set shot in the goal square but he was having fun out there and can't wait to see him get some consistency.
Weiters was a rock again. He has fought through another painful game which really stamps home how much he's grown.
