Norm Smith's Curse

Can I just say watching Carlton tonight that the suggestion McKay was overs or even par for Tracc is laughable. And their midfield is very one-speed already.

I heard shortly after this photo he lifted his phone to reveal the Demonland Forums

Carlton's midfield is a bit one speed like ours tbh.

Yeah look I took brand manager as more his social media promotion stuff. But who knows I guess.

There is something odd with Ralphie's statement. I mean could you imagine being the partner of an AFL star just cold calling player agents for legal advice? Seems a bit weird for mine and unlikely.

'I remain committed to playing in the red and blue' - he did not exclude playing for the white! Its official, he is going to the doggies!

So if that is true he did a Luke Ball and did everything he could to avoid playing for the dees (in his case again). If true that is pretty sad really. I mean its kind of like we are a partner that has been cheated on, everyone knows what happened and yet we take the partner back with open arms. lol

Main takeaway from the new Tom Morris comments was that he said that Tracc wanted to go to Collingwood, not to a big club. Thought that was interesting. Maybe he has realised that the only way not to sustain a catastrophic injury playing the pies is to join them.

Seems a bit damp and cool for painting

I never doubted you Tracc! 39 touch Norm Smith Medalist and Premiership hero. Hopefully the club can make the changes.

I have it on authority that Nathan Carroll is about to run a no confidence ticket.

The only thing I could think was that he was trying to keep the defender deep to create space but he was going about it a very strange way and a way that resulted in his opponent front access to the ball for two quarters.

I felt the same way but Chandler has been good this season. Not quite at Spargo level but had some big monents.

Many have really written this guy off after one season and there are many excuses. But in one game where I was sitting behind the goal posts I just had no idea what he was doing. He seemed to constantly be trying to move his feet under the back of the defender who was picking him up and going behind him when the ball was coming in from further out than 50 metres. It was really strange. Like instead of separating from his defender opponent when the ball came in he was right up behind him but not blocking because the ball was in front of the defender.

Imagine the rumours coming out of the club in 2025!

Salo has been ok as well.

Football act defense.

Im starting to think Kozzie is the hardest player at the dees behind Vines

I don't think the horse has bolted but could be wrong.

A bit of Byron Pickett in that one

That is how a real footy club responds - with actions rather than talk.

Apparently GC hasnt beaten us in over a decade.

This is the way a good club responds to questions. Not talk, action. Credit to the boys.

I feel like our gameplan of trying to lock it into our forward half just leads to turn over pain like constantly against Freo.

Not as sketchy as last year in attack.
