    VFL 2022 - Reserves Game Day discussion Rnds 1 - 22 (Merged threads)

    Looking forward to the players having a real fire in the belly after their last quarter capitulation against Frankston. After the seniors' win tonight, anyone looking for elevation to the seniors anytime soon needs to make every post a winner.

    I think we all know the answer to that.

    I was at that game with my Dopers supporting Aunty & her kids. That was one very painful night.

    2nds Exhibition Match: Carlton VFL vs Fitzroy Cubs, Sunday 15th May, 11 AM @ Ikon (stream link in OP)

    Dane has his father's footy brain, he reads the play better than most, his foot & hand skills are almost elite, he can take a good mark, but he doesn't have the build to go one-on-one with big forwards.

    Charlie shared his time between midfield & half back whilst playing for the Sandringham Dragons. Sadly he was just a bit too vanilla. There was no really outstanding features about his game.

    Still remember the goal he kicked in a pre-season game from the wrong pocket for a left footer. An amazing checkside which seemed to defy all laws of physics (not that I'm an expert on physics).

    Just running onto the field before the game makes them brave. My late mum, my sister, my half brother, my Auntie, a couple of her kids, my sister-in-law, her father all follow/followed the Dopers but somehow I can't find it within myself to have any sympathy for such a cheating club.

    Preview 2022 Round 9 Carlton vs GWS - Sunday May 15 3:20PM @ Giants Stadium - Team Post #1034

    Don't be expecting Motlop to be a prolific goalkicker. He is not a small forward in the Betts/Cameron/Walters mold. He seems to be playing his best football in the VFL as a high half forward, with the occasional stint in the midfield.

    Both Philp & Kemp have had long injury lay offs in their relatively short time at the club. With their fitness & confidence they are still playing catch up.

    Sometimes "bashing the ball fwd" can be an effective weapon. This is dependent on your midfielders running hard (we've seen Pittonet do it a few times this year with Walsh running hard to get to the ball first) & your half forwards ensuring they clear space to enable your midfielders to...

    In 50 years of watching VFA/VFL footy I have never seen a more heartless effort from a team containing the talent of this Carlton VFL team than what we have just witnessed in this last quarter. Not one Carlton listed player should expect elevation to the seniors next week. Not one of them has...

    Autopsy 2022 Rd 7 Blues down the Roos by 50

    This has been happening for some time. LOB needs to demand the ball from his teammates. Force them to notice him. He's still a bit introverted.

    It's 10 years since the Dopers were juiced. I wonder if Dank, The Weapon, Hird, Evans & Wallis had a reunion to reminisce about those days.

    Universal Love Down Memory Lane

    Cripps aside, that list is depressing. Hopefully Carroll can wear 16 with great distinction.

    He plays from behind too much & doesn't take many contested/pack marks. He's also a 'tweener'. Not tall enough to play KPF & definitely not a small forward. VFL is his level.
