We had them and RELAXED. May is good but needs to do the defensive thing better sometimes. Five goal lead but Blues got a sniff. Danger signs.
Dame Gaga 2,453 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 Carlton taking advantage of Max's ruck work.
WA Demon Boy 966 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 they're only 1 man down. Have to come out and destroy them in the second half - don't give them anything 1
Purple77 1,025 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 Stoked at what I'm seeing! I'm paying special close attention to whether the players are looking where they're kicking when going inside 50. And yes, they are looking, and its showing 2

They've given up contesting the ruck and are now just trying to steal the tap from Viney, Clarry etc. and is working to some effect. Expand Yes but what was that arrogant flip out the back from the boundary throw in that went straight to Carlton while all our mids are in front of him? That set up their first goal after May instead of punching tried to take a screamer from behind. I hope a Goody has a word to both. God after last year how could you get over confident in 2 quarters of good football? 3
Forest Demon 4,681 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 You can’t dominate like we did at the start for 4 quarters. Carlton were better that quarter and we pretty much squared the quarter. Need to come out swinging after half time and put it to bed. 3
CHF 2,825 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 Rivers is looking the goods and the run will do Jackson a lot of good. Bennell is doing a job and will be pleased so far. 2

Need to smash them early in the 3rd quarter to kill the game and kill their confidence. Not a whole lot to like about that 2nd quarter aside from a couple of little bursts. 1

WA Demon Boy 966 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 Max needs to run this Pittonet bloke into our fwd line, he's all over him around the ground
layzie 34,528 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 (edited) Teams will have lull patches, it's a fact of life. What has always been the problem with this mob is the gap between the best and worst. To completely turn around the clearance rate like that isn't good enough. We should at least still be getting our hands on it at least 1 in 4. Will need an early one in the 3rd because I can see a long period without a goal coming and the commentators piping up about it.

It's times like this where we're prone to complacency thinking it's already all locked up.
gregdemon 628 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 Bit worried now. gave them a bit of a sniff. Surely we win from here against this lot
loges 6,767 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 You have to expect Carlton to lift in that sort of situation and you have to lift with them or they will start to catch up!
Dr. Gonzo 24,468 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 We need to getting our tackling pressure up again from the start of the 3rd quarter. Do not give them a sniff.
Hogan2014 390 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 (edited) You just wonder how the long time off playing will affect sides hawks faded , only 10 goals pies & tigers ... how will the mfc go in the second half???? Edited June 13, 2020 by Hogan2014
Demonstone 23,599 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 If you'd told me before the game that we'd be five goals up at half-time, I would have been thrilled. Don't panic! 1
Moonshadow 17,678 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 It's ok, we'll be kicking with the wind next quarter...
rolling fog 1,208 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 Random observation - is the NRL-style halftime arrangement of sitting around on chairs in rooms a result of COVID protocols? I've just never noticed that before in AFL... 1
