spirit of norm smith

No Roy George !!!  Loved him last week.  

Moodie has been average so not sure why he’s in ahead of Roy

Woey gets a run. 👏

Schache out is good for Jeffo. Otherwise forwards would look top heavy  

Unavailable on the list are Schache Spargo Salem Milkshake (Jsmith29 ,Gus)

Putting money in the swear jar.  Seriously lost it when the JVR tackle was given a blues free.  
Those [censored] umpires screwed us all night.  Hard to lose.  Especially losing to Carltank.  Again a lose to them.  Heartbreaking.   

Team named yet??

AND MAY CALLED TOUCH EVEN BEFORE IT WAS GOING TO GOAL 

AND WINDSOR CALLED IT TOUCHED AS WELL 

6 Petracca.  5 goals.  Tried his hardest.  Nothing in the first quarter then so dangerous up forward. 
 

5 ANB. Cracked in all night.  All night. Some silly handballs but ran ran ran. 
 

4. Gawn.  Heart of a Lion. Just lifted and was scragged and held all night. 
 

3 Sparrow   Much improved.  Conditions suited him.  He gave 100%.  Ran hard.  
 

2 May.  Only beaten on 1-2 occasions.  Just steady all night.  Loved his composure under pressure. 
 

1.  JV7. Heart and soul all night.  Just have 300% 

special mentions.  

RIV.👍🏻 . The run.  The energy.  Overlap kicking.
Bowey 👍🏻  Composed    

Lingers  👍🏻 just covered so much ground   

Windsor. 👍🏻The run. The run. Soccer goal was special 

Néed to do more.🥶🥶  Petty. Chin.  JVR. Fritta.  Pickett.  Howes.  

Off night. Tmcd🤢🤢

Out.   Chandler.  Jogging. He’s clearly injured.  Clearly.

 AMW IN !!!!  

Out.  Turner.  One good game then lost as a forward v cats and lost v blues.  Natural defender.  
 

MCADAM IN !!! (If fit) 

JVR PERFECT TACKLE.  PERFECT.  

UMPIRE SAYS DANGEROUS TACKLE. 

WORST DECISION EVER.  EVER.  

(Kozzy kicks to Langdon goal).

@TheWiz

Billings - 4 touches

Fritsch - 3 touches

Petty - 1 touch

Pickett - 1 touch

Chandler - 4 touches. 

zero goals

 Blues defenders are destroying us

It shows what Windsor will do for us in a few years time. For now. It exposes Oliver lack of fitness. 

Clarry having a stinker. 4 Clangers. 3 absolute up and under kicks to no one.

Why’s that not fifty? He hit the ball. Why the [censored] are the rules even written down

Hollands hits the ball away. Nothing. 
 

Rivers hit in the head. Nothing. 
 

Rivers smashed in contest. Nothing. 
 

Viney tackled and gets rushed kick. Free to blues. 
 

Martin in contested marking. Free kick to blues. 
 

Curnow skill error. Out of bounds. Nothing. 
 

Cripps throws the footy.  Nothing. 
 

its criminal.  Umps are clearly instructed to favour Carlton.  Clearly. 

2nd quarter 

Petracca 👏👍🏻

Billings 🤢

Oliver 🤢🤢

Pickett 🤢🤢🤢

Crntre clearances 🤢🤢🤢🤢

Goodwin finally tagged Walsh 😡

? full strength team ? Only Salem out of best 22? 
 

umpiring is HORRENDOUS 🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢. So inconsistent!!! Favouring Carlton unbelievably

VAN ROOYEN IS 

1st quarter 

pathetic 

zero score 

overhandballing in the wet 

Petracca so so bad 

Goodwin lets Walsh run free. 15 possessions 

Dees 9 more handballs. 21 less possessions 

frees 8 to 2 blues way 

Got a text from on that blues mate 

DEES ARE PRETENDERS

I can’t argue !!

HANDBALLING IN THE RSIN 

STUPIDITY 

Langdon. Sparrow.  Neal bullen

Text from a mate who’s a blues nuftie 

“Charlie will kick a bag tonight”

****OFF

Dees v Blues.   It’s another huge test.

Blues lost last 2 and face Dees and Swans.

 My 50 cents.  If we butcher the ball like v cats and v tigers, we are truly “fire-trucked”.

Can’t rely on defence EVERY WEEK. You have to score.
 

One score over 100 in 8 games is poor.  

We need goalkicking accuracy and better connection forward of centre. 

Go Dees 

If big strong midfielder is needed to bolster our midfield depth, contender would be Riley Collier-Dawkins. With the departures of Brayshaw, Jordon, Harmes, Dunstan … midfield depth is seriously eroded.  Having an excellent year at Williamstown and one of the best in the VFL comp.  Good size and pace.  Would be good at the contest and drive hard at second chance.  

It’s daylight.  AMW is the only one deserving of a call up really.  What are we waiting for ? Probably offers more than Billings right now.  

Blues bring in 4 fresh players 

Dees in a 5 day turnaround 

Blues bolster defence and attack and run 

Blues are AFL darlings 

Blues desperately need to win 

Blues will have 60,000 screaming fanatics screaming for more favourable umpiring 

if 

the 

Dees

win 

its 

against 

the 

tide !!!
