Not sure who gave who what

Trac 5/5 = 10

Clarry 4/3 = 7

Chandler 3/2 = 5

Brayshaw 1/4 = 5

Pickett 2/1 = 3

 

I reckon Clarko gave Oliver 4. He basically killed the game in the first quarter. Made sure it was done and dusted. 
Great to see Kade recognized too! 
 

Bloody Trac is why Clarry won’t win a Brownlow by the way. And why Trac won’t win one either.  Rude 😂

 Let Carlton supporters salivate over Brownlows and Colemans. I'll take Premiership Cups and Norm Smiths any day of the week.

If Dangerfield copped half as much as Oliver did RE his kicking it would be a miracle.

I think we all understand that blokes who win the ball inside and bang it on the boot under pressure aren't hitting targets as much as a loose outsider.

Because its Dangerfield. He will run the AFL one day. Everyone just loves to fawn all over him.

Same way that they tell me how great Hawkins is, because he literally decapitates his opponent each week so he can take a mark, and the umpires let it happen.

Imagine if Gawn could do half the [censored] Hawkins does... he would be taking 95 contested marks a game.

Because it is a modern medical miracle!!

 

Seriously, how do you “accidentally” break someone’s jaw with your motionless hand when handballing?

Stop asking silly questions. 

Well @Jaded No More, you either don't know the meaning of "literally", you don't know the meaning of "decapitated" or you were exaggerating for comic effect.  My money's on the last of those options.

Yes first votes this year for Brayshaw.  He’s had a moderate to quiet start to 2023. But he proved his quality this week.

No coincidence that he played more midfield minutes and got votes. He’s wasted down back but I understand why he’s been down there.

Was interesting that Sparrow, Jordon, Kozzie even Harmes when he came on spent more time in the midfield. Perhaps after quarter time they thought with a 10 goal lead it would be a perfect time to blood them? Even saw Tracc and Clarry dropping back to half back on occasions.

Tough on Dangerfield..more people hate him than recognise how valuable   he is to his team.

You need to grow up

When Clarrie can produce a coherent sentence people will realise how good he is.

I really think he did his best work across half back though. His intercepting work was a real weapon for us and complemented the intercept marking of Lever, Rivers, May.

Most of his possessions were down back too, only a few in the middle.

Where in my post did I say he was not a great footballer?

I said he will run the AFL one day. He has a finger in every pie and the media love him. 
Just because I find him and his club insufferable, doesn’t mean I don’t recognize what a great player he’s been over the journey.

I think in general because the game was done within 8 minutes and the other defenders had their forwards covered, he was able to play a lot more loosely and run off and impact forward of the centre more than usual. 
Had a great game as a result.

Ha ha my bad..

I read  that you wrote " ruin" rather than "run "!! 

In my defence I was born in Geelong and other than the home ground advantage favouritism thing I still have a soft spot for them. 

Last years premiership team was  "complete ", brilliantly prepared  and Selwood and Dangerfield firmly turned the game when required after half time.

I hope Trac and Clarrie can become as precisely effective as  career partners. 

I rather be playing the Cats for this year's flag than last year's.

I detest Richmond who were the Club that stole MFC' s home ground advantage

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
