Jon Ralph with a pathetic dig at us just then in the Fox coverage.

Gex waffles the most and takes ages to say nothing. His comments re Dow are short sighted and incorrect.

He also uses words incorrectly, a lot. He adds some interesting stuff but let's not pretend that he is a football scholar.

What did he say?

Had his Wreck It Ralph segment where he just asks the panel questions. Asked Dal Santo whether Bolts will be coach when we play our next final. Then said it will probably be 2080.

To my mind the thing that was happening was they were trying so hard but not enjoying their football. That really seemed to change from the start of the match this week. Then as that slightly more relaxed approach started to pay dividends it caught on right through the playing group. Suddenly they had time and timing and patience to build.

They’d previously played 1 or 2 quarters but that was their first 4 quarter effort. To me their approach looked pretty similar in all other respects.

They were however cleaner with their possessions and held their marks better.

Jimmy Buckley on Marngrook. Him and Dougie Hawkins feeding off each other, having a good few chuckles....gold.

We loved Jimmy tonight!

Always enjoy Marngrook Footy Show. Genuine insight and valid opinions. Delivered with good humour. Its about the love of the game not egos and agendas. Thats what shines through. As I mentioned in my earlier post. It was terrific to hear from Jimmy how he sees the Blues of today and it was great to see the chemistry and obvious respect between Jimmy and "more senior" panelists.... Dougie was near wetting himself

I quite liked it, I took it as a plea for the club to acknowledge and fix it, rather than just brushing it off with, he’s just a kid, it will get better as he gets fitter, he’s maturing.

It seems it took the club 8 years to get someone in to help Levi with his kicking and I too hope the club is taking Dow’s kicking seriously rather than letting go.

For me, the idea that the club hasnt already identified and started working on those problems is nonsensical. I know an AFL assistant coach, I’ve heard about what they do. It’s painstaking detail most of the time and if that’s not happening at Carlton it’s a massive problem.

I guess the point I’m trying to make is that it’s fine for people to hold those opinions but for me, it’s not far removed from SEN talkback after the game. Good banter, love to hear people passionate about the Blues....but not really something I’m willing to invest 90 minutes in.

I’m not entirely sure the show knows what it is. Is it 90 minutes of pub banter or trying to be something more substantive? If there is an audience for the former, good luck to them. If it’s the latter, there is a lot of work to do.

Andy is an astute journo and a good presenter...it’s weird to me that he seems to have paired himself with two blokes from the pub. But obviously I may not be the audience.
