If we can get to the bye 5-4 I’d be wrapped.

no way we lose to Hawthorn

I feel justified now in all the hype I gave him with my dribbling pre season posts.

Yeah I must say Windows it wasn’t looking good 3 weeks in, but now your a friggin genius. Fickle isn’t it.

 

[95blues]

That's what I want to know. He got to AFL level in the first place, we saw fit to give him a second chance. I'm wondering what his tools are meant to be, as someone who knows zilch about him.

Hes similar to Levi, is actually surprisingly athletic and good in the air. I don't think the conditions did him any favours.

32 free kicks to 24

I think it was 22-19 at 3/4 time.

maggots did all they could.

Will depend on who we have available to play kpf i think

Like a moth to a flame, I’ll be rewatching this tonight, missus cc can wait for her jumping cuddle!

 

[slowhand clape]

56 free kicks in a 60 min game is outrageous.

Ed Curnow (the quiet achiever) did his job again on North's best and most dangerpus player (Simpkin) who was in AA form all season.

Reckon he would be leading the B and F right now.

Just a fabulous player who gets better with age

Took 13 pages for someone to point that out. Every week beats his man. Every single week. BOG today for mine.

 

[TheCoach16]

He was never AFL standard. Shouldn’t have been recruited.

And yet he’s already played one more AFL game than any of us ever will.

I don’t see the point of shitcanning a young bloke playing his first game.

First game Crippa played, he didn’t set the world on fire. Way way way to soon to be making that sort of call.

Not directing this specifically at you, Mister. Just a bit of an unnecessary theme becoming evident.

 

[NavySteel]

I know Willo makes some questionable decisions at times, like today. But he, like doch, has been out for the best part of two years and a bit. Give him a couple more seasons and he’ll be elite, no doubt. His bounce off half back will be legendary.

 

[Blueballs38]

I said during the game when he stuffs up, he really stuffs up. But you can't drop him the way he is playing. Handy contributor and hitting the scoreboard

Absolutely gutted at Mitch McGovern’s injury, really hope he doesn’t miss that many weeks.

I think we’ve realised it the last few weeks how critical having him up and about is to our team

All the best Mitch

Reading through this thread, anyone would have thought we lost the game.
I know it wasn't pretty but we got the 4 points.
I thought we looked fantastic in the first quarter.
Let's not underestimate that we won without 3 players.
No Harry really affected our structure.
Mitch was down & Moore was the invisible man (total crap).
I won't even bother talking about the Umps (disgusting vomit they are)
One great positive is we won with Moore in the side. I don't think we will play the experiment ever again. We won with many players down. Missed 2 easy shots at goal.
Was really a 3 goal win.
There is alot of upside. Should see 2 - 3 fresh players back. Harry, maybe Zac.
A big shout out to Setterfield, Weiters, Plowman.

 

[windows1]

Find it hard to like Newnes. Find it hard to hate him too. So yeah.

 

[gab213]

I assume it is a question of now or never for moore and let's see what he can do. The answer came back "never" and "nothing"

I guess this is sort of the same reaction as we had from people when Liam Jones first played for Carlton...................He may very well prove not to be good enough, that's a chance with whoever you pick up, but 1 game? C'mon.

 

[Funk]

Martins inability to kick set shots stop him from being an out and out gun. Cripps looks sore and I get nervous every one on one Plowman is involved in. Take the win and never look at that game again

get some glasses.

Plowman won the vast majority of 1 v 1’s all day - regardless of who he was on.

same as he does every week.

Only space he covered was his shadow

I thought he kept his opponent quiet, kept spoiling him well and didn't let him kick a goal. Just not sure why he was doing it up our end of the ground

Was a bewildering game and performance

so the people who crucify players after one game can crucify him after one game.........

Crucify is a bit rough Thy I’d be happy with a good anal bleaching, with hydrochloric acid.

 

[FRUMPY]

anyone know why tdk wasnt given a shot???

Moore has been our best in the practice games and don't think I've heard much about tdk. Don't reward subpar reserve performances.

18 disposals @ 73% DE, 9 intercept possessions, 7 marks in the wet, 351 meters gained and 0 clangers = horrible skills.

Plowman could cure world hunger and solve the Middle East crisis and still be bagged by some supporters

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

any cheering or just the booing you thought was great?

The booing was obviously towards the umpires. Not sure they were cheering them as well.

Great call!
Can go missing for parts of a game, but really smart, skilful player, and makes things happen. His little tap to Gibbons for our first goal today sums him up. Just creative and makes things happen.

 

[gab213]

Terrible game, poor performance but we walk away with the 4 points........I'll take that and move onto next week.
The best thing to come out of this game is that our season is still alive 8 rounds into a shortened season, I'm happy with that.

 

[Dunna Heartknee]

Carlton win tick
when the side that changed the word thuggery to shinboner spirit loses tick
Richmond loses tick
Hawthorn loses tick
when that sniper Clarkson looks sad tick
Adelaide not winning a game all year
the scum lose
the filth lose

pretty good week so far
looking forward to ticking all the boxes

 

[murphster]

me too

Me three, who we talking about? Sorry got excited.
