Non-Lions Footy Season (2018)

Only last week plenty of us on here were lauding Carlton's young talent as leagues ahead of ours and the envy of the entire league. Just another lesson in the importance of balance and perspective instead of reactivity and emotion.

Not even suggesting off this performance that Carlton's list isn't that, or that they won't go on to win this game - just saying that claims like it rarely prove accurate when made on the basis of limited viewing.

The shade is stopping me from seeing the Suns... Every forward 50 entry to the left of screen becomes a guessing fame
Just thinking the same thing, trying to watch day games at Etihad on TV is pretty difficult when you can’t see a third of the field.

LOL at the Carlton fans spitting the dummy over what they think is a raw deal from the umps.

Then the TV guys saying it was a "strange" match at half time

Only "strange" because the Blues aren't giving GC a bath like the script said.

GC deserve their lead

The TV guys seem almost depressed at the current state of the game.

Umps are certainly playing to the crowd this term, yuck.
 
Would hardly call either s**t on talent. Weitering is a much better player than Schache, not to mention KPP take a while to come on.
And Weitering has had at least one very good year.
 
Really impressed by Gold Coast's tackling. They seem to be sticking their tackles most times which just makes an enormous difference in terms of applying pressure. Would love to see us tackling with similar intensity and execution. Broken tackles have killed us in recent years.
