Game Day Carlton v Essendon Game Day Discussion

[LordLucifer]

I'm seeing it but I'm not believing it !!

 

[Robco]

Colour me surprised

 

[95blues]

Shocked. Ellard kicked a goal from a set shot.

I've always thought he was rock solid..

Don't believe it, well * it up.

 

[Pick7]

Well the fight was good. Looked a free kick on Hendo.

 

[AB_Blue]

No shame today had a dip

 

[Stig O'Hara]

....and it's nighty night Blues.

 

[Chism]

Gee we have been unlucky.

Hendo mark just falls out and then a rolling ball through a scuffle rolls to Howlett for an easy goal.

Some great signs though if we can just fix our kicking.

 

[MickyB]

Do we ever practice goal kicking?

 

[FlowersByIrene]

* the umpires. * those cheating ******* filthy mother******* campaigners
Thats a mark to Henderson!

Cheating campaigners! ******* robbed. You ******* green mother*ers

 

[95blues]

Shows that it's all in their heads.

Run, intensity, all just appeared.

No shame? They only started to put in once the games was already lost? They tried to save face, shame on them.

Only our kicking???

 

[Wickzki]

Only our kicking???

Kick straight today and we win or go a damn sight closer than the final margin.

We had enough chances.

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

Bad kicking is bad football. No point blaming the umpires when we can't kick goals despite the opportunities.

 

[diro]

Agree - shame shame shame.

 

[kingkingston]

9-14 to 14-4 since quarter time............when will we ever kick straight

it just kills us that we are horrible in front of goal

 

[Pick7]

Importantly the players have shown themselves they can do it. Hopefully.

 

[HyphensBack]

Positives: Two quarters of footy this week, Cripps and Judd smashed them in the clearances, Yarran was played further afield, Mick took off one of the taggers for the sub so maybe he has cottoned-on
Negatives: I will leave that to everyone else

Essendon ran out of gas. Anyone who uses this comeback as a reason to why things arent that bad should look at the first 3 qtrs.

 

[Robco]

Another positive is Byrne.

 

[LanceRomance]

We can't continue to play Curnow and Carrazzo to play in the same team..... IMO\\

Essendon ran out of gas. Anyone who uses this comeback as a reason to why things arent that bad should look at the first 3 qtrs.

Carlton were able to free up the play once they dropped their second tagger.... made a big difference

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Good enough to get 30 scoring shots, unable to convert.

That simple.

 

[Pick7]

Byrne should start the next one.

 

[LordLucifer]

11.18 is just poor kicking for goal, there were plenty of genuinely gettable shots that we squandered.
