Autopsy Rd 5 Did Blues win? They shit it in!

[mediumsizered]

To be fair, Crows were going to take Harry, but not Charlie. SOS took H first to guarantee them both, not to prioritise one.

Just another one SOS has got over the Crows. They must see SOS as enemy #1 with the way he keeps doing naughty things with them.

Thought our short quick handballs around and out of the stoppages today was first class, enabled players the chance to separate and spread out of traffic allowing cleaner ball movement...

Gonna be a broken record:

The run of Gibbons in transit added a LOT to our game. All of a sudden we can really link up from the back half all the way forward.

Was at the game today, level 2 behind the goals, so had a gopd down the ground view. Daisy's energy and workrate were extraordinary today. More than I've seen from him at Carlton. Not sure if his numbers reflect it (haven't looked yet) but he worked to hard to create an option on the wings, and to get back to help defense. I was really, really pleased to see it. He is more important than he gets credit for.

Daisy's been superb this year

Have to Love our average winning margin of 44 points

Is that Mediumsizered’s footsteps I hear approaching? ... but re the overall tone of your post

I'll let him off because he hasn't incorrectly stated that our last 2 decades are the worst by any club in the history of the competition, "stone cold fact."

 

[FitzroyBlueBagger]

If today highlighted one thing, it is that we're a different team with a good ruckman.

Kreuzer dominated English today (as expected). Not only at center bounces, but was a constant threat all around the ground.

Phillips and Lobbe are injury depth, that is all. We seriously need to have a plan in place for when Kreuzer hangs up the boots. Grundy would be handy...

With some luck the big fella has another 3/4 years in him so he goes out a duel premiership player

Don't record live games. Always been a jinx for me.

hate being at the ground watching a close game only to have someone who has recorded it tell me who won.........

 

[thylacine60]

I'm assuming that W sign Walsh made signalling a win?

You know, I share a lot of mutual connections with the Walsh family, all from the same community etc and no matter who and where I ask, I cannot find a single ******* bad word about this kid. I thought surely there is a bit of arrogance in him? Apparently not.

However this little W symbol along with his ridiculous drive and competitiveness, tells me that he may just have a tiny little bit of arrogance about him that he keeps under wraps.

I like it.

don't shoot the messenger and this is just a rumour but I heard he uses the butter knife in the vegemite..........just a rumour, make of it what you want......

 

[Robert Heatley]

I don’t give a flying how many he’s played. It’s my opinion that he doesn’t have what it takes at this level and after a “kickless” game it just highlights it more. A moment here and a moment there doesn’t cut it unfortunately. Happy for him to go back to the twos and come back and prove me wrong.

For his own development, he needs the opportunity to expand his game in the 2s. Whilst he might be doing “a job” it’s not good for him to be getting the ball 4 times a match.

Let him get it 20 times a match for the next 4 games in the VFL and see if he can bring some better form into the seniors

 

[GoBlues!]

He’s the best player we have ever had.

And I’m old. I’ve seen heaps of em.

Comparing our other greats at the age of 24, and considering the quality and experience of players around them, you may well be right.

 

[FitzroyBlueBagger]

What about Curnow. From where I was seated it didn't look like he did alot. Happy to be corrected though.

Very quiet game...

Finally caught up!!!

Mr Ed spent the weekend up in the big smoke, and was fortunate enough to do the double header and see both the NB's and the mighty Baggers have GREAT wins....still coming back down to earth...well, maybe a little scotch may assist there. And a bail of hay.

And if I'm allowed to blow my own trumpet, I reckons I should be up in the coach's box after one of my rants earlier in the week....



Maybe a little self indulgent, but I don't care, cos we won...and we are the Navy Blues

...and the rest can go and get ******

 

[ParapMarkets]

Daisy Thomas just keeps on keeping on. The debate on who won the “trade” is never one we’ll be able to answer in the affirmative for Carlton.

We didn’t “trade” for him!
There is no loss!

 

[thylacine60]

He’s there already

I'll play - walsh is a better player after 5 games than nicholls, jezza, doull, hunter & judd? asking for a friend........

It doesnt matter. In twenty years time is the time to ask.

 

[FitzroyBlueBagger]

i think we should keep changes to a minimum ...team obviously clicked today

If Cuningham is cleared his straight in Charlie too...

 

[thylacine60]

Priveledged to have seen all of the above play in the Under 10s.

 

[thylacine60]

Or just switch to Kayo and watch whenever you want.

yeah baby! just did........

 

[thylacine60]

Gibbons especially. Just finished watching it on replay. His link up play is superb. He’s composed in traffic through the middle of the ground. Seems very at home there Obvs. I felt he gave our mids a massive boost today.

gibbons has been a fine pickup - we just need to play him to his strengths.........

 

[thylacine60]

The doggie supporters have gone into meltdown mode on their page!

who let the dogs pout?

 

[bleednavyblue]

who let the dogs pout?

They are calling for Bevo’s head! Apparently he has the group off side, plays his favs and its his way or no way.

 

[thylacine60]

Plowman, thomas, JSOS, Casboult were our C and D graders who played like B graders.

I can't see it with Polson. His had plenty of chances. Gibbons is also not best 22.

Overtime Kennedy, Williamson, Cunningham, Curnow replace Obrien, Gibbons, Polson Casboult/Mcgovern and maybe Newman.

reckon he's jolly close

Sack everyone, Bamboo Harvester to coach.

Finally home from Easter family dinner. Time to watch replay.
