Autopsy Rd 18 Blues go down fighting in Simmo's farewell game

[Murphkreuzmitch]

Well would have been better to win to send a true stalwart off in his last game, but not to be... Thanks Simmo..

blues, these games are won in the gym and on the track, teams being able to spread harder from contests, break tackles, get first to the footy all happens from hard work.

so work hard and move forward..

See y’all sometime before or after round 1 next year. stay safe!!!

So we chair an opposition player off after a loss, but don't chair a club champion off after the same?

What a strange club this is

have a bit of a think on it.........be a nice change for ya.........

 

[NavySteel]

you'd be cheering him on in navy like anyone else - nothing worse than a sad, whining, pathetic sore loser.......

Play the ball, not the man.

I haven’t got personal, so I’d appreciate it if you didn’t either.

cheers.

 

[The Dochs in]

Wonder what’s going on with Casboult. Looked completely disinterested and has for the last few weeks. Wonder if he has been told we’d be shopping him around or something.
Thought Gibbons was pretty ordinary tonight as well

 

[BlueBayou]

Can we lobby the AFL for 3 30 minute periods next season and ditch the 4 qtrs crap?

Better still, can we go back to the old rules and let the Captains decide the free kicks? Can't be worse

 

[T2B_]

Walsh is some player. Smokey for the best and fairest

Only getting better. So much for a low ceiling or little improvement.

 

[Own The Future]

Stop whinging about McGovern please

Thought he was better tonight.
Clearly not high stats, but competed in the air, laid some tackles and played a role.
I’ll admit he’s an expensive role player, but I liked him as that 3rd tall defender.

 

[ferrisb]

We were competitive, but just not good enough.

Allowed 5 goals in a row again, can't keep doing that. Felt like brissy got some friendly umpiring, but Brissy were clearly the better team regardless.

Walsh good, Plowman v good. Weiters lost few contests. Impressive effort without cripps for a chunk.

Just lack a little class. Need a few more A-graders to compete with the finals teams.

 

[bigm386]

We watch the same game?

Martin was manic at the contest the entire night...a lone hand at times.

Not saying he was bad. He was proppy on his calf and it was heavily strapped. He also has a history of calf issues.

Makes no sense to play Cripps and Martin. Not to mention Doc last week.

 

[Rustica]

Kath looking

 

[Pablito]

They kicked 4 goals from shocking free kicks and won by 17 points so...

23 (24 if you include the hipwood miss)scoring shots to 11. Only reason we were still in it was our accuracy in front of goals. When we have momentum we can't put it on the scoreboard, unlike our opposition.

 

[JustaBattler]

thanks Simmo and Kreuze - two Carlton players that never let us down - true CHAMPIONS

 

[thylacine60]

Play the ball, not the man.

I haven’t got personal, so I’d appreciate it if you didn’t either.

cheers.

you're running my club and it's players down - don't.........

 

[HBF]

no

Please

 

[Markyd]

5 goals from free kicks, hard to fight back from that!

 

[rampar]

More rockets teague

 

[ferrisb]

I really like Daniel Rich.

But he must have the thickest, shortest arms I've ever seen.

Like someone taught a baby T-Rex how to kick 65 on his left...

 

[FairKouta]

I feel like shit.
Feels like i lost something important to my being

 

[BigFrizz36]

When we stop doing the same pathetic sh*t ever week yes.

You enjoy losing the day before the game?

When we stop doing the same pathetic sh*t ever week yes.

You enjoy losing the day before the game?

So the answer is no you never stop complaining.

 

[Blue Heart]

CFC has got this list management decision badly wrong ... Simmo's form this yr. has been good enough to go around again in 2021 and Eddie is cooked and should be retired to a coaching / mentoring role.

 

[passmark]

2014 -2017 we were above or around the same mark as Brisbane. What a difference 3 years makes if recruitment, development and coaching are done well.

Post when they win something.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Had enough of it, but the 15 minute blackout kicked in midway through the second and we were chasing tail.

Defence was reasonable, Plow terrific, but we let guys like Rich goal and that killed us.

Umpiring.......Nuremberg 1936.

Boys fought it out, hard to gauge a season like this......will give us a pass.

 

[thylacine60]

5 goals from free kicks we gave away, hard to fight back from that!

 

[no. 4]

Tonight summed up our season. Yet another match where one quarter cost us the win.

Walsh, Plowman, McKay, Kennedy and Martin can hold their heads high.

Bit disappointed that Simpson and Kreuzer weren't chaired off.

 

[agro]

Felt like brissy got some friendly umpiring

Any friendlier and you’d be googling those scenes on all the porno websites.
