NON-MFC: Round 08

[Gawndy the Great 9,011]

Collywobbles look all fumbly. Blues turned up the intensity and the Pies no good. 
 

Expect similar next week

Blues are zoning well to prevent any Pies forward plays… be interesting if they can maintain it. Pies lack of tall forwards and punch in the middle mean Blues should beat them well…

please. 😊

@binman normally rate your tips but Pies. Two big outs De Goey and Mitchell. Plus Pies two named key defenders Markov and Noble. Extremely underwhelming against Harry Charlie and Tom. I think this will be hard for Pies to get back into game. Will severely dent Pies season which will make it a perfect night

Another nnon-universal rule of the AFL.

I am mystified by how far players can run when kicking-in after a behind.  I'd assume they can't run more than 15m from the end of the goal square. Yet they often run much much further than that and it would be easy for the umps to judge given they have a 9m ruler nearby.  Am I missing a rule?

No but the umps certainly are.... all four of them

Power forwards what we don’t have 

They can keep Harry. 

I'd have the other bloke though.

Pies have given up 6.3, 6.1 and tonight 5.4 in the first quarter of their last 3 games.

de koning would suit us perfectly

Sidebottom has been a terrific player but he’s a shadow of the footballer he was. 

[BDA 23,048]

given we're playing them next week i'd would prefer if the pies gave Carlton a tougher physical test than this. 

[M_9 2,216]

Ah, the beauty of having two power forwards a la Blues and Cats. One stays put (Curnow, Hawkins) the other drifts to the wing or further back (McKay, Cameron). If it’s TMac on Cameron tomorrow night probably McKay’s his man next week. Just don’t see May up to that much travelling.

[DubDee 26,674]

Sad seeing Sidebottom go on a year too many. A Champion player but they can’t carry him for much longer

great handball pendlebury. class player

[Ethan Tremblay 31,388]

Couldn’t possibly play a free kick against Cripps..

[M_9 2,216]

First kick a goal. Well done son.

[Dee Zephyr 19,311]

Well done Sullivan. That’s awesome.

 Collingwood’s debutants look Collingwood-ish already.

Carlton have gone to sleep

[M_9 2,216]

Pies not bad with the long bomb i50. They’ve stolen our game plan … previous game plan?

[The heart beats true 18,201]

Howe still can’t kick.

[Ethan Tremblay 31,388]

lol @ the head lock on the Collingwood player. Free kick Carlton. 

[Ethan Tremblay 31,388]

I feel so dirty. But I’m going for Collingwood.

Blues defence is terrible
