Carlton vs. Essendon - Rd 23. 2014

[Stan_Darsh72]

Gotta say, I love the jumper with the Heritage logo that Carlton are wearing at the moment, I really do hope they stick with their decision to make it our permanent jumper moving forward

I agree however the Jumper needs to be lighter and more blue.

I keep thinking it is black.

Goddard had a bruise on his cheek?

Now I'm no big city lawyer, but a high bump is a high bump. It was RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME and I thought a fair free

There was no free in it, the reason the umpire gave was also not high

Goddard is weak as piss

No idea if he had a bruise on his cheek. Just saw the clip.

Looked very soft.

Who loves a draw??

I know I do (especially when it's not my team).

Maybe Goddard got the bruise on his cheek from a passing seagull?

What bruise on the cheek and how do you know it come from the gifted free kick? He is pretty soft maybe he got a hard gust of wind bruised him

 

[Simon Wiggins]

Could be a needle mark

Edit: Highly likely it's a needle mark

 

[Bell Ringer]

He's a seagull himself, so yeh, probably.

only saw the clip about 15m ago. the fact the umpire paid it only when he saw a player down and then when asked why it was a free, he said 'too forceful behind play'.....WTF??? this game is in trouble. is that a rule now? too forceful? what a terrible decision and you'd hope he doesnt umpire finals.

 

[Chief]

And here I was, a week out from the end of the H&A season, wondering if we wouldn't see a draw this season.

The draw always finds a way.

I remember the year we ran betting odds based scoring in the tipping. Had about 6 draws that year.

 

[Lance Uppercut]

Ah well. I hope you have booked your caravan spot for holidays next week?

 

[Lance Uppercut]

Oh there there, maybe next year you'll make finals.

Well, you probably won't, but who knows. There's always hope I guess

 

[FRUMPY]

Ah well. I hope you have booked your caravan spot for holidays next week?

i have but could only get 1 week, essendon supporter already booked theirs for the week after

 

[Bell Ringer]

Ah well. I hope you have booked your caravan spot for holidays next week?

Not at all. Will be front and centre to watch North continue a decade of finals futility for the Bombres.

Michael Quinn to replace Belcho this week?

 

[BALKAN]

I don't understand why people are saying it should have been punched through. Watson was in front of the pack and got both hands on it, any forward in that situation would do the same thing.

I heard Essendon made finals last year, how'd they go?

true but game awareness, they would have known down to last minute or there abouts, any chance just make sure you get a score. no biggun, has no effect on our season. nice to finish off with a good performance (thought they may have played like last week)

 

[Sufjan Stevens]

There are always so many sore losers in these threads.

 

[Chief]

Maybe Goddard got the bruise on his cheek from a passing seagull?

Or from hitting the ground?

 

[Chief]

There are always so many sore losers in these threads.

And troll winners

 

[BG32]

Carlton are s**t. How did Gibbs not score from 50m out? Or wood knock it through??

 

[pinot]

That game summed up our year. So close and yet so far with 2-3 aberrational performances just a crap season all round.

Bring on the pre season shall watch on with interest most important pre season I can ever remember.

 

[jimmy35]

Unlike the awesome Pies last Night ..they were sensational .. your trolling garbage is hilarious

Come on Bluesy, no drunken ranting PM this time? I'm disappointed.

Nice post mate but it's a Carlton v Essendon game day thread not a Collingwood one and what I said stands firm. Nice honourable draw though this time to hang your hat on, at least the Pies were balls deep in the finals fight until the last round not speculating on how high your draft pick was going to be back in July

 

[Halftimehero]

Good to see the dons use this games as prep for their final against norf

Just lucky the team we will face actually lost to Carlton a couple of weeks ago
