Get Berry

 

[Ashley B]

Umpires couldn’t get the Blues over the line this week although they tried they were as disappointed as the Carlton players lol

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Even Adelaide can beat good teams.

 

[muttley45]

Lucky Berry kicked that last goal, while he was grabbing the pill for a shot, Rankine was tackled to the ground by Walsh when nowhere near the action, and completely ignored by the ump's, so, karma Bluebaggers

 

[rickety]

Had a lol as that Owwies fella coulda won the game but stubbed his toe :-D

That was pi$s poor umpiring, I can’t believe it wasn’t paid.

 

[Hearts to hearts]

I stopped paying attention when Carlton got three goals up in the last quarter, so I had to go back and watch what happened from there. Hahahahaha. Don’t like Crows but at a Carlton home game that was funny, especially as the Blues messed up so many opportunities to win it.

Or McKay dropping a chest mark.

All the excuses we’ve made about playing good teams… Saints nearly beat GWS, Crows beat Carlton away…

We’re just full of excuses, often not very good ones.

 

[Only Forwards]

All the excuses we’ve made about playing good teams… Saints nearly beat GWS, Crows beat Carlton away…

We’re just full of excuses, often not very good ones.

All of those teams have an actual senior core of players who have not come of the back of some of the worst years any football club has had ever.

Let’s look at this weekend as a really simplistic example we will have a back 6 where the players out there have never set foot on an AFL ground as a back 6 ever. We are reliant on a bloke playing his second ever game and another his 11th nailing down KPD spot to even make us break even.

The things you point to as excuses are just some of the context around the side currently.

We’re young and we’ve sucked for ages. We’re gonna suck for a while still until we can organically grow maturity into the side.

No matter how angry you get at the club or the situation there’s a shit sandwich infront of us and it’ll stay there for some time yet.

It’s told in the context of our draw but other sides have shown the fixtures weren’t as difficult as we’re going out of our way to point out.

 

[Sillygit]

could we get the non-north part of the thread title in a 64+ sized font? might be too subtle though

 

[Tiberius]

Why are Carlton like a photocopier?




They're no good without Toner.

 

[Roostorm]

Not a bad game between hawks vs suns…but geez there’s some head scratching non calls from officials for both sides….l really don’t know what htb, front on interference with a marking fwd or head high non paid tackles are any more…

having a friendly chat with Kenny

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Blooooody hell we should’ve listened to Mick Barlow. At the end of last year he was singing the praises of the Werribee boys Sam Clohesy and Shaun Mannagh.

Clohesy looks every bit a jet playing on a wing for Gold Coast

He sure was! Another own goal.

We'd be much better off than chasing Dylan Stephens

 

[William Caresser]

Freo open that space up at half forward from centre clearances very well.

They also defend pretty well. Port had multiple entries and it took a fantastic kick by bergman to goal.

 

[Harris 10]

Think I’ll be sick watching Chol rip our backline apart next week.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Think I’ll be sick watching Chol rip our backline apart next week.

And it will be so.

He’ll have acres of space to operate, whilst our 50 will resemble a London tube station at peak hour.

One stat to watch:

Hawthorn have kicked five first quarter goals this year.

They’ll beat that whole total in our game alone.

 

[outwecome2play]

Hinkley is a decoy coach.

 

[Harris 10]

And it will be so.

Add Ginnivan to that as well.
