Game Day Round 3 Carlton v Collingwood Match Discussion

Just wanted to point out that Daisy is a bit of a ****, in particular with his bumps, once on Murphy (out of play) when Judd had a mark, once on Laidler (high) when contesting the ball, and once on Henderson (when the ball had been run out and Hendo was jogging back to position). Gets on my nerves

He likes to bump when the opponent's not expecting. I don't think he deserves such a touch nickname. Something more feminine would definitely be appropriate. Maybe (sticking with the flower theme) he could become pansey? Definitely fits.

All this whining about being down a couple players and being underdone. Lol Reid went off but he isn't part of their mid rotations and they replaced ball with Sinclair (yes obviously he's nowhere near the calibre of ball but he can run) they are full of excuses to try and make themselves feel better.

Truth is kruezer and hampson smashed both of their ruck men and that's why we killed them in clearances (ironically enough our most dominant period was in the first quarter where ball and Reid were still playing). Our mids were getting first hands to the ball and dictating play all night.

As for the underdone side of things that is a load of shit! We were only able to field a close to full side one week before the season started, lost all our nab cup games and Jamison played his first game all year and played well and Duigan was looking fine for the small game time he had. Then there's still walker to come back.

Who did they really have missing that would've made a huge difference last night? Tarrant on Waite could've helped but then again they chose not to play brown, didak is finished and then there's Johnson. Well you'd have to be deluded if you think those couple of players would've made a 10 goal or 15 scoring shot difference.

I'm not letting these bullshit excuses take the shine off our win their midfield was almost full strength and they are the ones that got slaughtered last night.

Hey TA - i think that by bad mouthing and taking pot shots against your opposition - somehow takes the gloss and in general undermines your team's performance - dont you think?

Too right. No-one on the Collingwood Board stoops to that and that's how it should be. :thumbsu:

Fair call.

If it was reveresed - if we had been without two of our best defenders, one of our best mids, and a few other handy bit players, and Collingwood had been at full strength - then we would rightly be claiming that is was a lopsided game.

Oh ok next time I'll talk you up after a performance like that. I don't think I said anything incorrect and if you can watch the replay you'll see that.
 
Loved Garlett's goal. Full credit to Dawes for persisting against all hope with the chase though.
 
Had to cringe when Matthews rated Cyril above Betts as the best small forward in the game.

Cyril has literally played one good quarter of footy in his life.

I was enjoying all you Carlton fans giving it to Collingwood, until this
Eddie has been super so far but this is a stupid comment mate, obviously you are quite a goose.
Anyway , the blues look good, very very good

My point is more that Betts is a better footballer than Rioli. But if you choose to believe I actually think Cyril has only played one good quarter in his life and wasn't extracting the urine, you my foe, are the goose.
 
Just watched the replay (thanks zee), plenty I miss in the heat of a game.

Scoreboard flattered the Pies.

Gee we missed some goal opportunities especially in the 3rd. At one stage Bruce said in the call how long can the pies hold on, as we were peppering the goals but missing.

At least 4 gimmes went begging. Kruzers brain fart after marking in the goal square, Jeffys miss after the 2E kick out and Kruze knock on coast to coaster for one of the quarters 2 posters (I think Scotty had the other) and Eddie got one earlier in the game.

Had we taken them, the margin between the sides would not have been to dissimilar to the Lions margin.

Its still only 4 points and some percentage but there was so much to take out of that game. So much improvement still to come, it must be scaring some of the sides we will come against.

Cant wait to smash the Bombers.










Again.
