Hoping there's still a fair bit of footy left in him, but watching Doc hold his ground against McVee, playing on and kicking a deep penetrating ball inside 50 to Acres is tell your grandkids kinda stuff. s**t you'll never forget.
Boyd might have been been an inspired selection, but he looked best 22 material before suspension and showed it again tonight. One of their best.
Hollands is on the right trajectory.
Massive tick for the season. But the goal now is to be there again next year, and the year after that etc...
Reasons why I probably can't ever truly be a non-believer in a higher power:
It would only be some sick * that lives upstairs that would give us the last two weeks as payoff for what happened last year.
The three wingmen of the apocalypse, when last year we had none.
Footy. How good.
There isn’t a version of this team that can unquestionably be backed as best 22 regardless of opponent.
So making tweaks to accomodate for matchups makes sense.
Can go either way on this.
But will say I'm not concerned (maybe foolishly) about the level of hunger this team will bring to a final, regardless of how many weeks off they've had, given this will be the first time playing in one for nearly all of them - especially the leaders.
Part of the generation that can remember and count nearly every Carlton finals appearance on one hand.
Tired of that being the case.
Not counting out what they could achieve this year, but irrespective of what happens, I hope this brings in the next successful era for the club.
There are valid reasons for why you should let Dow find a new home - both for the club and the player. There are increasingly more reasons for why you should keep Dow in navy blue.
The kind of game from him that would even make Voss smile.
Tillies into Baggers. What a night.
Did it the hard way, but that's as big a confirmation for Voss, the club, the leaders and ultimately the players as you're going to see this year.
7 in a row feels like a fever dream.
Injuries are the bigger story, but take nothing away from how good Charlie was.
TDK is my guy I've decided. I get the reasons for letting him go, but he is building into the type of player that you won't be able to easily replace.
If it comes together next week, they'll have turned the...
Partly makes me a tad more infuriated that they couldn't figure this out even once in that 6-week stretch, but lessons learnt etc.
Mostly, the balance is exactly right. Quick ball movement exists, and defensive pressure is as the made-up pressure rating says 'elite'.
The JSOS/Young combo is...
Stuck in a perpetual cycle of shitness.
Not sure a club can have this many cracks at it and manage to * it up every time. Exception to the rule I guess.
The doubling and tripling down of the same crop players is just so infuriating.
Had a renewed sense of enthusiasm going into this one because I figured we’d likely see Dow and Binns make the side and potentially see a spark come from somewhere else.
If Voss is telling us that this is the...
Voss almost needs to work because if he doesn't then it's an admission by the club that we've failed a generation of players.
4 coaches in 7 years does very little to support the growth of a team and it'd be fair to suggest that how good a player on the list is, is far more due to their own...
Losing to the Saints and Lions in practically the same way is as infuriating as anything this club has done in over 10 years.
Leadership on the ground and in the box seems non-existent.
******* hell. You couldn't have asked more from a supporters base, and yet they'll probably be rewarded in a...
Even in that passage when took the game on, they lacked class, awareness of their surroundings....
That to me is almost as troubling as the shite they put up coming out of defense in the 3rd.
