Impressive

[stokesy]

With the game now over in Adeliade and a great win at that.

I ask to you guys, who played well, who didn't for our team? Let's have a review of all the players.

One played I was impressed with was Glen Bowyer.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

My best in no particular order:

Camporeale
Lappin
Fevola
Whitnall
Norman
Thornton
Stevens
Prendergast
Houlihan

 

[Free Willy]

Campo (Clearly)
Fevola (just behind....even with 7)
Lappin
Bowyer
Thornton
Stevens
Thornton

nice contributions....
Whitnall
Norman
Morell

 

[Carmelo Anthony]

I think that Norman is going to turn out a gun. Very very good talent you have there.

 

[95&eyenoit]

Fev
Campo
Lappin
Norman

But worth mentioning

I thought the work Lance did around the ground in the 2nd half was fantastic. He alone stopped a lot of their clearances just by putting his (BIG) body in there.

Johnson, although only featuring for a total of 5 minutes also demands a mention.....he can be so damaging, why doesnt he know it himself?????

I was so proud of Thornton. How daunting it must be to play on Carey (even now!). Thornton didnt take a backward step and his intensity can never be question.

Houla looks so good in defense, such a shame because I loved him up front.

My pet peeve.
HATE seeing the forward line with no one there. It doesnt work with our boys...sure give fev his room but we need targets.


Well done baggers.....consecutive wins? I hucking fope so!

Simpson..... showed heaps of promise, best game he has played with the club and looks like another player on the rise for us.

Just a quick question ... Andy Walker? Let him go back to the Northern Bullants for one or two weeks? Or play him for the next two against Hawks and Tigers?

I think play him until the break, and then see where he is at.

thats something ive been wondering myself ...

ive noticed ever since the weagles game his decision making has been pretty bad. against melbourne he ran into scotland and spoilt his mark. against the dogs he handballed directly to opposition player, did the same yesterday to a degree, these are off the top of my head.

plus he's spent a lot of time on the pine ... i thought he was gonna get dropped b4 yesterdays game.

personally id like to give him experience in the next 2 games. because although id love to think so i dont think we;ll make the finals this year. but where definately on the right track for next year and beyond. playing him in the 2's has advantages of giving him some more confidence. i think he'd be lacking it atm.

what about harford??? play him against his old side??? he doesnt seem to be a favourite of pagans, as seems to always be on the bench.

either way someone will have to make way for waite, and hopefully kouta!! and i cant think of ne one else who would be dropped. any thoughts???

 

[stokesy]

I think one of the reasons Harford came to the club was to share his experience. I can't see him playing next week, he only got 19 minutes yesterday on the ground... but we do need to let Waite and Kouta in some time or rather.

So you would think that Hardford would go back to the reserves, and probably Walker.

Walker is a 50/50, keep him in until the break or.. give him some more confidence in the reserves.

As you said BlueBoy, he has panicked quite a few times when he has had the ball - but thats inexperience and a lack of confidence.

The question is, will Kouta be back next week?

Will Waite be right to play, it might be to soon to bring him back?

Hope so.

off topic....BUT, how much BULL was that free kick against Norman with 50 seconds to go? i have no idea HOW THE HELL it was holding the ball, luck johncock sprayed it

 

[stokesy]

The umpires panicked, as they seem to do when Carlton have a chance of winning with 30 seconds to go.

If Johncock kicked that goal we would have been robbed.

The umpires would not of paid that free at the start of the game.

Dad said, when Johncock was lining up for goal - F****** Aboriginal.

Luckily, he didn't kick the goal like Daniel Wells did lol.

Tell your father he should be teaching his son to have better values.......F&@king Fathers!

 

[DIG]

Harford

I reckon we should play Harford for this week - him and Johnson should be fired up for their old club.

 

[big_sav]

drop - harford and walker - walker needs a game in the vfl so he can mayb get a bit of form in that match and come back firing against richmond

bring in - waite and McCormick - great games in the vfl

 

[tim_smith321]

bring in setanta!!!! this is one of the few time this year carlton will be strong favourites to win, it would be perfect to bring him in this week, give him some experience. Does anyone know if Jonothan Hay will play? i heard theres a strong chance he'll get cited, if hay doesnt play fev will DOMINATE
