Non-Lions discussion 2022

[McIvor]

I know a Carlton win benefits us but that whole Cripps debacle is karma.

Suck it Carlton.

 

[MSB ROYS]

Delicious if Carlton lose next week as well.

 

[Nunez]

* Melbourne. Hope we smash them next week.

 

[MacMum]

Wow, what a finish.

 

[pulpdriver]

Oh well, we had to win next week any way. Blues winning just would have been some insurance and nice for Vossy

 

[MSB ROYS]

Carlton choked. Wasting time kicking backwards then miss the target. Then Saad kicks the ball long 20 m inside the boundary to an out number. Rest is history. Cripps karma.

 

[Lion_LegacyXL]

The stakes are even bigger for next weeks game, both us and Melbourne will be going into the final game of the season tied on 60 points.

 

[McIvor]

Funnily enough - more I think of it, if Carlton won, I dont think they'd have the same intensity next week when we may need them to beat Collingwood. The fact they lost tonite means theyl be going all out against Pies, which if we beat Melbourne, may serve us better, particulalry if Pies can upset Swans tomorrow.

 

[CarterS]

Three Carlton players go up for the same ball they all miss it hits one of their heads bounces straight to the Melbourne player and the rest is history… laughable scenes.

 

[mpal6]

Docherty playing in the middle was a great move. Almost felt like we got to see what a Starce move to the middle would look like. He tackled anyone carrying the ball past him, stopped Oliver as well and caused repeat stoppages. Good coaching move, gave them lot of protection.

 

[martinson]

Intense game for Melbourne tonight and a 6 day break up to Brisbane.

 

[luthor]

I know we don't like Carlton/Cripps but that was an incredibly lucky win by Melbourne.

Carlton played their guts out and deserved to win IMO.

Suck it Carlton.

It actually didn’t.

We’d have to beat Melbourne regardless if we want to overtake them.

If Carlton miss finals from where they were, beautiful.

 

[Mr Ripper]

Don’t think Carlton can recover from that.

is a bitter pill to swallow.

Don’t think Carlton can recover from that.

That loss will ultimately either motivate or break them, we'll find out next week.

Yep, this is the best scenario for us IMO. From here if we are to finish second we have to win next week, Collingwood beat Sydney, and next week Carlton beats Collingwood.

 

[BerryGood13]

Was at the game tonight. Carlton’s skills are horrible. Melbourne’s delivery going forward leaves a lot to be desired as well. They are gettable at The Gabba. Just have to actually apply some pressure this time.

 

[bungalow_bill]

Would not be particularly concerned about Melbourne if this is what they are going to dish up. Not saying we will beat them easily or anything but we probably start favourite. The unbeatable veneer of last year is definitely gone.

Very 2001 Bombers

If it bleeds we can kill it and Melbourne can bleed

 

[mpal6]

Melbourne players were so excited after the win they spoke a lot about inner workings yesterday.

Looks like they're taken a leaf out of Pies book and started practicing the last few minutes scenarios. Kozzy talked about it and how they reviewed Pies loss, last few minutes and kept practicing players mindset during that time again n again. Seems to have helped them yesterday.

Similarly Melksham spoke about positive reinforcement session that choco williams runs every monday, tackle n tough or something. He plays all the one percent clips to the team and commend players on their great work. Sounded very similar to Fagan's method of always reinforcing positive vibes to our players.

 

[Mr Ripper]

Losing a game to Jake Melksham is a bitter pill to swallow.

We almost lost to Mason Wood.

 

[morsie]

Given Carltons outs ,it would have been a very gutsy win

 

[Lazza16]

Delicious if Carlton lose next week as well.

True ..... tho I would rather play the Blues than those ball throwing umpire favourite Doggies in the finals

The Dees post match song was sung with such gusto I was jealous that our team rarely gets so excited.
