Jaded No More

He loved playing on his best mate today I reckon. I swear I saw him yelling at JJ to sit down when he came off 😂 Glad we subbed off Spargo. JJ was very clean in the last quarter. He’s too good not to play senior footy.

I’m going to save us all a lot of time by letting you know that ANB will not be dropped this week. Carry on.

Of course. I hope Viney nails him. Also they have a very hard game coming up next week. Go for the jugular Port!

There you go Collingwood basically bang on for expected score. Us, well… not so much

Totally disagree on JVR. He was very good. Rarely lost an aerial contest and nailed the most crucial kick for goal of the match. He is a baby. This was a very good game from him playing near and sometimes on one of the best FBs in the game.

If anyone tells me Oliver isn’t a better player than De Goey and Sidebottom I will fight them to the death!

Cry me a river

For mine is Spargo out and Clarry in. We are playing one too many smalls up forward who aren’t giving us enough. Hard squeeze with Bowey unless we want to rest Hibbo again. Petty is obviously a walk up start too if he’s fit. But he may not be? Tough selection week.

We won this game the way we like to win. Hard contested footy. Won clearances (without Oliver!) and contested possessions and dominated defensively. That is pleasing as we know this method wins us a flag.

The BS frees didn’t help

Incorrect. Tomlinson needs to play a role. He can concede 2-3 goals a game and we can still keep the opposition to under 10 goals because it allows May and Lever to play their natural game. If he keeps this form up and we can play Petty forward, we will win the flag. Yes, I said it.

How is this the first comment post win? We beat the team everyone said was going to walk up to the podium in September unopposed. Ffs.

Seems to have the brain capacity to be a Republican. Either way he is an average player and an average sportsman. Embarrassing from him.

Correct. He played on Josh Daicos and was very good. Chin was ok. Spargo did nothing hence he was subbed. Kosi seems to me to be carrying an injury. Barely got out of first gear and didn’t make the distance from 40 out.

He is the epitome of a sore loser Yank. No doubt he voted for Trump.

We dominated that game. Make no mistakes this is the Port game in reverse. We kick straight and it’s a 6 goal win. Absolutely brilliant performance missing two very important players. I want to give a massive shout out to Smith and Tomlinson. Played perfect team roles. And McVee and JVR who are delivering beyond their years. A performance that makes you so proud. What an effort!

MY KINGDOM FOR A FORWARD WHO CAN KICK STRAIGHT

The lady checking tickets in M50 told me she’s already kicked some Pies fans out. I told her to please keep an eye out and she promised she will. The issue is they sneak in from underneath 😡

JJ is on the field warming up. Sub as expected.

How do you know they have tickets and didn’t just sneak in? I would check.

The absolute [censored] nerves of this club. Just beat them and shut them up Dees!

How good would it be if they picked a supporter to do the post match press conference each week? Would pay good money to watch a Carlton fan do a presser right now 😂

This thread is already wild and slightly unhinged Gonna be a long day.

As always it’s not losing or winning, it’s how you lose or win. I want to see what we’ve come up with to counter the Pies. If it works with some success then I’ll be satisfied that we can get them in finals. If it falls apart like a cheap suit I’ll be worried.

Obviously if they had suspected flu or Covid running through the club they would have wanted extra time to assess and maybe even wait on respiratory test results before naming the side. I don’t have any issues with that. It’s better than naming a side and then making 8 changes two days later, or letting infectious players take the field and passing it onto our guys!
