NON-MFC: Round 04

[The heart beats true 18,095]

Cripps throws more than anyone in the comp.

You have to be careful when you get near to 60 yo; so many things from the past look better than they actually were. This even applies to footy, because there are a lot of small things in modern footy that simply give me the jimmy-brits. The clash jumper idea (which has some merit) has gone too far.

What the .... are Fremantle wearing? How does purple with a white stripe clash with a navy blue jumper so dark it is almost black? Just wear your jumper, and if there is an obvious clash between you and an opponent, the away team wear your white clash jumper.

Yep. Good call about Walsh. Absolute gun.

He got them over the line against us last year.

He’s a cheat who goes down to easy and sucks the umpire in. Cost us in that game too. Hope his back is rooted.

If Lachie Fogarty gets low impact......

I must be on my own on this forum as there’s plenty of other posters who don’t rate Carlton.

I seriously rate Carlton and have them in the current top 3 seedings.

They have every position covered with star material all over the place. It starts with their “Steve May” (Weitering) down back and ends with the two best key fwds in the league.

Unfortunately they also showed that they could handle the big MCG finals moments which will hold them in good stead in September.

(Hope I’m wrong and they cop a loss today)

I rate them too but not that highly. The big MCG final??? We had that game by miles and coughed it up. We lost that more than them winning it.

This may give the best hope for kozzie getting off

I'd actually like the Dockers to reintroduce some green as part of any clash guernsey. Today's abomination reminds me of the Carlton navy guernsey with a navy CFC they wore relatively recently.

Jye Amiss is only 20yo??!

kicked 41 last year

 

[Dee Zephyr 19,267]

No one wants to win this. 

[Bitter but optimistic 22,218]

That was the get out of jail card for Carlton. [censored] !!!

[The Corridor 119]

Most predictable thing ever is Carlton getting a phantom free for a goal to take the lead late in a game.

[Diamond_Jim 12,521]

Free kicks decide the game

Freo need a forward

In the scheme of things a Carlton win is probably good for us

So many GWS midfielders are now playing elsewhere ... Shiel, O'Meara, Hopper, Prestia, Taranto et al.

O'Meara and Prestia both started at Gold Coast.

Your point is valid nonetheless.

Finally we get a close game. Not that I've minded other huge results 

[Ethan Tremblay 30,819]

You just know that Carlton is going to win from getting a free kick. 

[Bitter but optimistic 22,218]

Why did Jackson tap to space ???

Stupid, stupid play.

[Dee Zephyr 19,267]

What a bunch of tin azzes this mob 

[dees189227 12,367]

Oh wow what a finish. Crazy

[The heart beats true 18,095]

If you don’t reckon the fix is in for Carlton this year you aren’t paying attention.
