NON-MFC: Round 1, 2022

[loges 6,767]

Carlton's last kick into the forward 50 gets stuffed up every time. 

[Demonland 72,178]

Carlton need to clean up their turnovers.

Sometimes I feel quite inadequate.

I think I shall give the maid a jolly good rollicking ...... and it's your fault Dub.

[DubDee 25,857]

So good to see 50's being paid for time wasting.  eg, falling over the ball and not giving it back

[Cards13 9,117]

Silvani will (not) miss surely

I tell ya what, neither team is winning a flag this year. 
Carlton are at least hanging in and giving themselves a sniff. Richmond look old. 

[Bitter but optimistic 22,239]

Oscar!!

[Cards13 9,117]

Free to Martin?! Seriously it is a tough watch at times.

[Rod Grinter Riot Squad 5,654]

Such a soft free kick to Dusty, bs

Over the shoulder 

but soft

[Bitter but optimistic 22,239]

Well let's see where Carlton are at.

If they come back and win against an experienced side then Voss has had an impact.

[BDA 22,752]

Carlton fans look feral

[DubDee 25,857]

There was nothing close to a free kick to Dusty. 

As usual the commentary team don't even mention it.  the kick to dusty came from another free as well.   such BS

With all the momentum with Carlton, the umps could well have decided this game

pretty sure you're allowed to reach over your opponents shoulder to try to spoil.

not having a go at you, I'm just annoyed.

Full disclosure - i've got money on the blues.

At least Nick didn’t look like a smashed crab when  he played. Jack is the biggest drama queen. Just calm down Jack, people are literally dying in Ukraine. You just got tackled. 

[Gawndy the Great 9,011]

Really liked Bolton and the way he is able to get involved in the game from HB into the forward line and damage the scoreboard. I know he took a few seasons to develop but hope one of our small forwards can develop into a similar player.

he'll have to console himself with being 3 times the player Jack is

[Maldonboy38 6,402]

What is it with so many poor free kicks being awarded for minimal/normal physical contact? Are the umpires being directed to take the physical risk out of the game?

• If you even touch a person with a free kick or mark = 50m. A couple last night, and more tonight
• Williams manning up on Martin = freekick. What!?!?!
• A  player trips over an opposition player who is almost stationary on the ground and is awarded a tripping free. 

Did I miss the memo or can I no longer guess the rules?

By the way, a good contest Tiges v Blues, but nothing more. No killer blow for any team so far.

Agree. Defenders have a tough job

[Dee Zephyr 19,267]

3 goals to the left of screen and 14 to the right so far. That’s the only observation I have out of tonight.

Along with lots of new players with “Vissy ambassador” roles who have come to Carlton.

How much are the Blues paying Martin? Ouch.
