AFL 2015, Round 2 - West Coast v Carlton, Domain Stadium, 6.10pm (WA)/7.30pm (Vic)

[Pakenhamsaint]

No Stevo at the presso. Disappointing.

 

[peppy la pew]

I think that is the first time I've ever heard Hurn speak. Not as polished as others, but gets the job done.

I like Hurn, good honest footballer

 

[Scotland]

What did Derm say?

For $450k a season he'd drive Betts to the airport and that he wouldn't kick 50 goals a year without Tex alongside him.

 

[Back One Out]

Close game to quarter time. Juddy on fire with 12 possessions (6 ineffective)

After that it was….. West Coast 16.10.106 Carlton 3.7.25

Total domination. Kennedy was sensational.
I thought Priddis was a solid 4 quarter contributor (despite everyone giving him s**t in this thread)

Possessions over the last 3 quarters:

22 Matt Priddis
22 Andrew Gaff
20 Brad Sheppard
19 Luke Shuey
19 Chris Masten
19 Bryce Gibbs
18 Dom Sheed
18 Sam Docherty
18 Zach Tuohy
15 Will Schofield
15 Andrejs Everitt
14 Marc Murphy
14 Levi Casboult
13 Sharrod Wellingham
13 Jeremy McGovern
13 Mark LeCras
13 Ed Curnow
12 Kade Simpson
12 Josh Kennedy
12 Andrew Carrazzo
11 Elliot Yeo
11 Jackson Nelson
10 Lachie Henderson

[Lost_Deputy]

FaaaAaaaaaAaallllllllllllllll
Out!

 

[Hayes4PM]

I snoozed in and out but I thought West Coast's defence was really good considering no E Mackenzie and Brown. Carlton being really s**t also helped.

 

[SterlingArcher]

For $450k a season he'd drive Betts to the airport and that he wouldn't kick 50 goals a year without Tex alongside him.

Ridiculous.

Betts is a star.

I heard he's on a bit more than 450k but he's worth it. Would be our 2nd best player (Gibbs, Betts/Judd) right now and I daresay if we could have predicted Jeffys troubles and need to have a fresh start we would have offered his worth in the hope he resisted the lures of going home.

edit: I know you're not saying that - it's ridiculous of Derm to suggest it

 

[BluesMan]

I feel for sorry for the silly eagles fans that will think their side is half decent after than performance

 

[Runnin Blue]

For $450k a season he'd drive Betts to the airport and that he wouldn't kick 50 goals a year without Tex alongside him.

What an absolute crock. Seriously Derm...

McGov is a player of the future. Yeo and Hurn are up against it but they compete well enough. Might not be enough against top sides but they will a fair few games with that defence - Schofield and Bennell didn't have their best games but they aren't spuds (anymore) either.

 

[eddiebankbalance]

Congrats to WestCoast.

 

[Ian Dunross]

Does this make the Bulldogs effort last week even more impressive?

Possibly suggests Carlton likely to finish below the Bulldogs. That would be bloody embarrassing given where Carlton were supposed to be heading under Malthouse.

 

[estibador]

His Mick tried to sneak out the back door to the airport?

 

[Damon_3388]

Ah, Malthouse lacking a "Plan B". I recognise that leitmotif from his Collingwood days...

 

[Wild Bill]

Come on Mick - show yourself!!!

 

[blue harvest]

should make the presser pay per view

 

[BACCS]

Derm still thinks Betts is overpaid at 450k, despite the fact he made the AA squad last year and is now playing more midfield minutes than ever before. Change that name to Rioli and Derm would be all over it!

Seriously, just admit you are wrong and move on

 

[Crawb]

Do the Malthouse press conferences deserve their own Game Day thread?

 

[Spitta09]

Gibbs with the second highest fantasy points on the ground. And that is why those scores can be pure crap

 

[doppleganger]

Keep getting them cheques Mick!!

 

[DanWA]

Levi Casboult, Bryce Gibbs need to hang the boots up

Marc Murphy is just s**t

 

[TheDyerLegacy]

Keep getting them cheques Mick!!

Money in the bank!

 

[The Joker]

Finally, What i punished myself for by watching that game, Micks presser

 

[Crawb]

Did Mick's eyes just light up realising Mark Stevens wasn't there?
