  1. Or when ANB I think took a mark and Mihocek simply grabbed his collar and dragged him to the ground
  2. What about the centre bounce that was recalled? Cox just smashed Gawn in the head. No free ball up Took him a few moments to get up Or when he sunk his knees into Rivers on the ground. He's a dirtbag. And Gawn was constantly shepherded off the ball in the fwd line.
  3. Said this one would be worth revisiting. Thanks for the laughs :)
  4. We were very nervous in the first 15m. Hunter turned the ball over 4 times and Brayshaw coughed it up at least 3 Inferred pressure everywhere. We tidied up well though and dominated the rest of the game.
  5. Ch 7 showed him sitting in the box today
  6. Outstanding performance. Hit the post 4 times but our kicking for goal was [censored] Viney immense but the biggest surprise for me was Thommo. Fantastic game Fritsch's awareness of his teammate around him is terrible.
  7. All i know os that our club doesn't get involved in bidding wars for second rate players that come on to the market and tout prices of $800+k a year. How has that worked for Carlton? When we have a need we target a player and get them, Think Langdon and Hibberd. All for a good price. Our recruiting team is the nest in the business We do need to develop a gorilla defender though. Not sure we have on of them anywhere.
  8. Used to matter as they had to print the Footy Record. Doesn't matter anymore.
  9. When you play a team game throwing around the magnets takes away from the strategy. Players become confused about who goes where and who is minding who etc. It becomes self defeating. Better off using Grundy or Gawn to be the floater fwd or back to assist the defence or frwards To counter teams attacking frm their D50 Goody has used tactics like Petty on T McCartin and Thommo on McKay. Or ANB /Kozzie shadowing Saad. I fully expect JSMith to shadow Moore with Gawn/Grundy floating fwd. And I expect to see ANB or Kozie shadow the kick ins and follow up running from Daicos Our wings when we are attacking usually run fwd of the ball, particularly at centre bounce. We rarely have our wings coming in to the defensive side of the centre scrimmage. They like to keep their width and are often used as an exit if we are in trouble.
  10. If you think that you weren't watching the Carlton game closely enough.
  11. This is one post worth revisiting on Monday evening.
  12. Given Melb and Coll hold the record for the biggest ever H&A game ever if this one eclipses it we will have the two biggest ever H&A games.
  13. MIxed marriages never work
  14. Embarrassment? 2022 rd 13 they beat us after we had no May, lost, Petty & Turner during the game and Gawn went down with a foot and knee in the guts from Cox. We were 24 pts up 2021 we lost by 17pts 2020 we won by 56 pts. Hardly embarrassing
  15. Blakey was not concussed. He passed all the tests. They subbed him out because a a toe issue he took into the game. From the Horse's mouth
  16. That was my assessment too. We changed the way we set as a dress rehearsal for Monday. Will be a very tactical game but one I am increasingly confident of winning.
  17. You would be mad not to. There will be 90000 people there. The noise will be a major factor.
  18. Carlton are a highly ranked centre clearance side and we smashed their midfield. We'll be OK
  19. It's a blister. He'll be right,
  20. I presume he's on an IV to ensure that any infection is nuked well in time for the game.
  21. He plays well in the wet [Ah, beat me to it!]
  22. How does this scoring system work? Petracca gone from 125 to 143 Gawn gone from 50 to 53 May gone from 17 to 30 Round 11 v Freo 127. Clayton Oliver 125. Christian Petracca 50. Max Gawn Jack Viney 40. Brodie Grundy 38. Angus Brayshaw 33. Trent Rivers 30. Jake Lever 23. Lachie Hunter 19. Jake Bowey 18. Ed Langdon Kysaiah Pickett 17. Steven May 15. Tom Sparrow
  23. And if we do watch the commentators say " oh they were due for a loss, they have been up for so long, you can't keep up that pace all season, De Goey missing has cost them" blah blah blah.
  24. You can really train for finals type game. You have to experience them. We want to play in big games and we train as best we can for big games. Thats why I think they set themselves for this.
