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

[Bobmonkey]

Plow knockers no where to be seen tonight.

Been missing for the last month, funny that.

 

[murphster]

That is extremely impressive...

didn’t think his stats were as high as that. Contested ball has me frothing.

Def keeps his spot

0 tackles let’s him down a bit but very good 2nd game.

I never watch Ch7. I'm strictly a FoxFooty watcher. No adds.

But for some reason, as soon as Newnes sunk that goal i thought "i'll go to 7 and record the aftermatch and switch back to Fox". So i did. And i've just now watched the 7 aftermatch.

How sweet was the Brayshaw, Richo, Darcy tears lol. They were shattered. The fake laughing in between all the handwringing was, as 7 would say, delicious.

who was he on for the game?

not sure?
But you’re right. Still an impressive start!

FMD how bad is the carlton media/club that don't make themselves available for roaming Ed?

Agree with you here. I was looking forward to seeing our guys on TV having a laugh. We never won Friday or Saturday night games so never got roaming Brian. Disappointing

 

[Dramoth]

TDK’s athletic ability and skill set has me drooling...

Give him the offseason being mentored by Kreuzer in how to hunt midfielders to turn him into the finished product.

That being said, there is that something special about him!

 

[thylacine60]

We deserved to win ,we were the better side all night.

all night?

 

[Dadda Dave]

ed curnow what a workhorse
willo cotrel newens all tckle aggressively and attack the ball
tdk should remain in seniors

Yep ,runs his guts put every week and now and then he might miss a target but that's because he's knackered most of the time ..top 5 picked every week for me..

Didn’t get 7 coverage in QLD. Had to watch through AFL App which means missing all the after game analysis, pressers and frivolity. Could be a blessing.

 

[murphster]

really responding well to this spell of continuity..........

Loved his hardness and his tackles on Fyfe which were actually rewarded for a nice change.

 

[thylacine60]

I don’t get the angst against SPS the majority of his disposals hit a target if he is 20 from goal hits up a team mate at 50 and they have a decision to go inside or down the line
Or you have The Doc kick blindly straight to a fifty fifty or try to hit a target at 30
SPS is best 22 every day of the week and class has time to look for the best option and generally uses it

kicked direct to opposition players on several occasions tonight - by hand as well - don't know what's going on with him but he's too good to be wasted back there

 

[Dadda Dave]

all night?

Pretty much ..

 

[Rhysswans13]

Outstanding kick by Newnes!

On the boundary, 50 out, crowd against him, photographer in the way and absolutely nailed it. Goal of the year in my opinion.

Good to finally see something go Carlton’s way. Well done!

 

[footyfan1978]

Happy they included the trainers in the after match song.
Not easy for those types to be so far from home and not being able to get out of circle of same people and be with family and friends. Any joy the players and staff can give each other and share going to do them all some good mentally and emotionally in this very strange year for everyone.

 

[Jimmyonesix]

Back above 500 metres gained for the first time since the first 3 games of the year, good start to the road back to his best.

Yes and he didn't seem to be going that well .. I remember more of a couple miss kicks bit of the fumbles -- but that lingering spoil on Walters was superb .. that's a real positive..

 

[TerryWallet]

Simmo a bit sore and out on his feet. A couple of new kids unable to run out the game. Kennedy with a corkie.

Walshie?

“I’ve got this. Get on my back. I’ll bring this sucker home.”

He's done that 4 or 5 times in his first year and a half. Next level steeliness. Not the prettiest, but next level drive and belief.

 

[thylacine60]

Pretty much ..

see the quarter time score?

 

[TheKITC]

all coaches say the same thing........

I think the subtle (or not so) "...after what they did last week" is the salient take-away from the quote my friend.

He's not a decent defender is why.

Maybe it's the coaching panels fault for constantly playing him down back but we need someone with more run and carry than he provides in that position.

Something we thought he might bring to the table but for someone who should be able to run and carry he doesn't do it much at all.

We need a Zac Williams like player rather than SPS down back.

 

[FairKouta]

He did tonight. At half time he was bemoaning the bullshit frees in front of goal freo had.

But after the game when comparing stats he was like fyfe was forward and was making excuses for why fyfe was better than cripps

 

[BigBreakfast]

I know Weibot has a couple kicked on him tonight, programming mishaps maybe, but I thought he was still one of our best. Not as many chop out marks but, the wet was always going to stifle them. Fist to multiple contests and was generally clean enough when he got it given that there is always pressure on. All key forwards know they are in for a rough night when the cyborg heads their way.

 

[Jimmae]

So you rate Adelaide?

I rate Adelaide as the next key game for rotation after Gold Coast.

Look, as it stands, we've got Martin, Cuningham and McGovern due back and Dow banging down the door, so the rotation looks pretty much like a best 22 scenario, with just a couple of tweaks.

We need fresh legs for pressure purposes, or we'll be completely out of gas by the Sydney game.

think you may have an odd lens on this - saw none of that - just suppressed delirium around a bizarre finish.........the media hate silliness is just that.....

 

[Foucault1989]

Tom Williamson turning into a very serious footballer.

Very good call. Was huge tonight.

thylacine60 I see your little exodus has not harmed your post count. FMD it's monolithic.
