Autopsy Rd 12 Newnes wins the game for Carlton after the siren!

[ETET]

I am sure I speak for everyone on this site as we have all been behind him from the start... lock Newnes in for 19 years before he is poached.

 

[BigBreakfast]

Needed to revel in the glory for half an hour. I f***ing love this club. I love this team. All of them...

How the fu** did we win that

nobody knownes.......

Just wanted to post this here, as me and my partner are in raptures right now (her side Carlton and obviously my second side) - you may have just witnessed divine intervention, haha.

My grandmother unfortunately passed away today, from this f*cking horrible covid 19 disease. It's been a tough day as we were close, but footy has been a great comfort all throughout.

Point of this post, is that with about 10 minutes to go, I looked up to the sky and asked my nana if she could help us over the line. 10 seconds to go and Docherty kicks it out on the full. Me and my partner both think it's over and we commiserate.

Nek minnit, a down the field free kick is paid, and no-one really knows what it's for. Moreso, Newnes who is an experienced player takes the kick, and Gibbons who is young doesn't.

Newnes kicks the goal, and the rest is history.

For the record, I'm an agnostic, but I do believe there's things we don't understand. I said thank you to my nana, and it kinda brings me a bit of joy to see something so bizarre/unusual unfold.

Go Blues!

How freakin quick and clean are Fisher's hands in close?

Teague, leave TDK in this side for the rest of his career

TDK plays the rest of the year, cotrell keeps his spot, give honey another run on a dry day etc etc.

Cottrell is pretty unrefined, but his intensity and drive is huge. Covers a hell of a lot of ground.

Seems like a natural defensive winger.

 

[myblueroan]

how good would newnes be feeling. clutch af

Seriously looking good for going forward after that. A few to come in.
Marchy...Dow?

After the s**t run we have had with the umps, we deserved to get one back.
They got two gimmes in the first quarter to put them clear.

GO BAGGERS IM SO BLOODY PROUD OF EVERY ONE OF YOU.

Also, we have some of the most over-critical, abusive, uneducated fans in the AFL on here.
We clawed our way back into the game, especially in the third, i jumped back on Bigfooty at three quarter time, and the comments were atrocious.

You mob are not supporters at all and many only seem to post when we're behind on the scoreboard, then disappear when we win.
Friggen nuffies all of ya.

...and Richo, the free kick was there. Makes no difference what the spoilers intentions were..
Front on contact and high!
This prick always tries to tarnish our wins.
He hates us and that makes me feel great.

GO BLUES!!

 

[perthblue]

Downfield was the right call as it was contact after he kicked the ball. It’s whether or not you agree with it being an infringement or not

If the ball lands out on the full is it not meant to go back to where the freekick happened?

 

[passmark]

what's with the slippery deck? appalling conditions........

Perfect level surfaces are like that.

 

[reg_lower91]

How can it be down field when the ball is out of bounds? It's never down the field if it is out on the full.

The ball left the field of player after ThE contact. Beside the point anyway. It’s about the when the player made contact with Doc, which was after he kicked it. That alone is what determines the whether it is downfield or “as he kicked it”.

 

[Michael Jezz]

I will never forget this game.
I am blessed
That is my match report

 

[FRUMPY]

I was about to blast Doc for kicking it out on the full.

I still blasted him (again, his kicking was shizenhousen today)

[athensblue]

Cameraman should have gone behind Newnes to get a good shot

Suck a lemon, you whinging turd.

For all those that winge about the umpires, it always evens itself out. Go Blues.

 

[NavySteel]

BLUES BLUES BLUES!!!!!
Dropped to my knees as Doc kicked it out on the full. Jumped up and ran around the room as that ball sailed through

My heart didn't know what was going on.

Might have to check myself into emergency.

 

[Own The Future]

I like Cottrell...

Same.
Seeing him bump the Freo guy (I want to say Aish?) showed some grunt that too few in the team have.
Not dirty, but physical.
Loved his goal too.

 

[OldCarltonian]

If Doc wasn’t our co-captain he would be close to being dropped. Dropped mark and 2 awful kicks into the 50 in the last quarter. He’s been awful for a month. Lucky we won

Sam Docherty is a lucky lucky boy. I was absolutely livid when he shanked the initial free OOF - got bailed out by some absolute bullshit (going our way for a change) and an incredibly clutch kick by Newnes.

Walsh absolutely fantastic - our best player by a mile tonight. One of the better games Crippa has played this season too. Lots to like about TDK in the ruck too!

Reality is however we have absolutely stolen that, even if on the balance of play in the second half we probably deserved to win. Bank the points and look to next week
