Game Day Rnd 8 - Carlton v Brisbane Game Day 🏈

[agro]

Has [PLAYERCARD]Jack Gunston[/PLAYERCARD] ever played in a losing game against Carlton - would love to wipe that self satisfied smirk right off his face.

 

[SkyhorseTamer]

Clean up disposal and we are well within this. Straightened up a bit towards the end of the 2nd qtr

Yeah more direct clear the Brisbane congestion.

Motlop & Honey offer nothing

Motlop at least tackles, and has 2nd efforts.

Honey is the invisible man.

Must have been an amazing 5 possession VFL game to entrench him as best22

Our composure with ball in hand is the big difference in this right now, if we keep making dumb errors and coughing up goals we lose if we tidy that up we win.

We looked 100% better in the last 5mins when we settled down and controlled the pace

 

[Kreuuuzeurns]

Cerra into the guts changed that game Carlton's way. Shame we couldn't really capitalise.

He has been our best midfielder in 2023.

They need to find some belief now... This qtr is very pivotal in our season I reckon.

Crippa and Walsh to go beast mode and bring it home... Go baggers.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

We are on top in most areas statistically, aside from stoppage clearances.

We are handballing way too much. Lions are 2 kicks for every handball. We aren't too far off going one for one, which translates to our forward line being more populated than theirs.

 

[BlueGum]

Need to work a bit harder and make better decisions. Not out of this. Put a bit of pressure back on Lions.

Honey is a Vossy favourite. We’re supposed to be at the point where games are given on merit and not gifted.

 

[V23]

Need to get the ball in Saad (8 touches) and Newman’s (6 touches) hands more often. Should help solve some of our turnovers through sloppy disposal.

 

[Juddrockz]

Our small forwards don’t do enough.
Not dangerous

Hard to do much if the midfield is breaking down,the forwards arent getting a look at it.

 

[HarryFlashman]

Moving to Bourbon for the 2nd half

 

[Arr0w]

Good fight in the last 7 minutes, but our kicking earlier was poor

Kemp needs to forget the intercept for a while and just focus on Gunston. If he can't, swap Jsos with him

Great tackling by Mots, couple of goals from he and Durds, but 7 touches from both + Honey just isn't good enough

If Honey is still struggling half way through the next, bring Kennedy on

Really liked Hollands qtr, Cincotta too.

Need more drive from Saad and Newman

Still like that we want to attack the game, just want a tad more composure

 

[Robbo's my hero]

I’m at the game. No need to run for the lifeboats yet. Go Blues.

 

[Mondyboy]

We butcher the ball at the worst possible spots. That has been the difference, otherwise we are matching them.

Clangers killing us

Carlton smalls

Durdin - 1 Kick 2 HB 1 Goal
Honey - 1 Kick
Motlop- 2 kicks - 1 Goal

How do these players keep getting a game

 

[Blue By Blood]

Right in this game. Just need to tidy up the disposal and take the game on. Rush the behind when it’s on the goal line. Enough of these small little defensive punches back into dangerous areas. Do the percentage plays. Surely they get drilled to do that.

Kicking errors are largely coming from hesitation. Take the first option and the ground opens up and kicks become easier. Run and overlap.

My kingdom for some players with neat foot skills. Needs to be a huge focus come draft and trade period.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Motlop & Honey offer nothing

A goal and 6 tackles for Motlop. That's what we want from a small forward.

Unacceptable.

 

[Red_man2008]

Too many unnecessary handballs, putting teammates into avoidable pressure.

Or hitting up late. So many easy kicks to hold the play up when out on the run but we choose to HB. The mots goal helped heaps with a pretty poor inside 50 from holland.

 

[Blue1980]

What is up with Walsh. Has he had an effective disposal all game? Did we rush him back?

Hollands has potential but he needs to play VFL for a while his disposal is awful under pressure.

This game could very well be over Brisbane had chances to kick out to a good lead.

I understand the mindset of moving the ball on quickly but you need to have an option to do that.

Acres has been brilliant, he is in our top 10 players right now. Cerra also has been great, everyone else can lift.

Problem is if you drop Hollands who comes in? LOB? No thanks

That’s true.
But it is the season in general

Careful. You are not allowed to criticise Voss in this forum.

Honey is an amazing lad

Just like Polson was for Bolton

Just bring Kennedy on for Honey now
Isn't this logical?
