Traded #22: Jake Carlisle - Pt.1 - Traded with some other stuff for pick 5, 24 and a Bird (cont in Part 2)

[Pweter]

After his first or second game I posted how one of the commentators said he saw a lot of Dermot Brereton in the way he moved.

I got flamed, even though I was only the messenger.

If this keeps up it seems we mightve been underselling Jake a touch

This is right up there with one of the best things I have seen for a while

Carlisle's marking (whether forward or back) has been 'elite' for two years now.. so it is an interesting point.. hard to disagree that Carlisle could end up on the same level as Carey...

Having said that.. as much as I hate/d Carey.. he was friggen epic for a long long time.

Serious question.. is there a better reader of the ball in flight that Carlisle in the game? Very rarely misreads the drop of the ball imho...

Similar to Harry Taylor..

I love how he just grabs his marks in one massive clunk. He's been doing this for a while of course, other than his drop in form, but now he's beginning to believe he can do it from almost anywhere. And the best thing is it looks like he can!

Actually I can't recall anyone rubbing anyone's nose in anything on this board week after week.

Well, I often feel like a pint and some sort of seafood, but alas, I'm unable to have any.

Your name kind of points it out and makes me feel worse.

I haven't read 72 pages of this, but I presume Bomber Thompson's spewin right?
I wonder if he's stubborn about his sandwich fillings too?

Jake Carlisle 10 marks inside 50 - most CD has ever recorded @EssendonFC

Gun.

 

[fishardansin]

Also, Essendon need to send Carey a gift basket.

.... or a night with the "Essendon mother"

How good was that mark on the edge of the goal square in the last.

Four deep, what a ****ing star!!!

not to mention that he can have a player in front of him in a better position to mark.... and he still reaches over and plunks it. that's the Carey aspect.

AFL: Jake Carlisle lifted the Bombers over the Bulldogs tonight. Here’s his full highlight reel: http://t.co/FVKtYb5PmV [3:16 video] #AFLDogsDons

Not sure Parrot is his type

 

[Lord Nicholson]

Why the need to tell someone they're wrong rather than enjoy one of our own players' career best form.

Probably because there's a 17 point manifesto on the Bomber's coaching thread.

Which is perfectly fine, the whole point of having a board like this is to foster discussion, but you have to pay the piper when you're wrong. And the more vociferous you are in pursuing an agenda, the more you're going to be called out down the line. Because you know damn well that there would be some pretty loud noises being bandied about if those opinions were vindicated.

That's pretty much what happens in real life.

That was Carey-esque.

Fyfe.

Who you'd trade for?

 

[GandalfTheDon]

****ing hell, if Jakey keeps this up and Daniher becomes what we all know he can be...I'll just chuck on a raincoat. Permanent coating of jizz

That's the angle you were going with, wasn't it?

Forget Lloyd/Lucas, how about Lloyd/Carey

 

[JD11]

I love his whole demeanor too. No fuss. No big celebrations. Just big clunks and on with business.

Laid a few nice tackles as well.

 

[Childish Gambino]

Didn't realise he also laid 7 tackles. Awesome performance!

 

[Bomberblitzer]

Forget Lloyd/Lucas, how about Lloyd/Carey

Let's not disregard how good Lucas was...

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

**** we haven't a forward dominate like that since the Llyod and Lucas days his last 2 weeks have been superb hopefully it continues.
