Post Game - 1st Semi Final - Carlton v West Coast

Would love to see some of those West Coast goals that Warnock looked like he touched. Too bad in Australia the TV technology still sucks.
At least we can hang out hats on having 40 different camera angles for each game, 37 of which aren't useful in the slightest. :thumbsu:

Yeah couldn't believe Channel Ten didn't show any of those questionable goals at all. Seven may have shit commentators but they always show questionable goals.

i had a perfect angle of it from where i was sitting and every single one was an eagles goal

robbie touched them that little bit too late

Fair enough just would've like to have seen a replay like many other fans watching would have.

thought army might have been pushed in the back for one of those
 
Hard to believe that Armfield was on Embley last night. From the TV, all I saw was Embley getting the ball and wheeling around to dispose under zero pressure. Gibbs's class, poise and ability to shut down a player whilst using it well is irreplaceable.

Kreuzer's class and ability to manufacture something forward would have also made a difference.

Thrashed Carlos who had to pinch hit in the middle and play out of position.

Activating Tuohy earlier than we would have planned hurt our structure and ability to run the game out. They could just sag off our forwards and cut off our inside fifties with Thornton out of the picture.
No mention of Betts?
He continually sagged off the front of the contest having taken his man to it, only to let his man go third up with no pressure.

Betts struggles when he tries to play "tall" and last night h got caught in no mans land, moving into the leading forwads area only to pull out at the lasy minute.

Didn't hit the pack front and square and only achieved adding another defender to the contest.

Not sure Kreuzer would have faired any better on Glass. I thought Setnta did o.k. At times, but I suspect he was one of the ones Ratts was referring to when he mentioned the same 22 not playing together and consistency up forward. Needs plenty of work on his goal kicking.

Would like to see Thornton spend a full pre-season playing CHF.

The Sunday Footy Show reviews the Semi Final match between West Coast and Carlton at Subiaco. With West Coasts Andrew Embley.
Jeez Wookie, your work has been incredible with these videos lately. :thumbsu:
 
Still gutted beyond words but I'd better have a say on the last game of the season.

Good effort by all.

Really missed Gibbs. For eg, Carrots had Jeffy leading to him but not the poise or skill to hit him. Half volley, clean bowled, ball turns over, Cox goals. Gibbs would have hit Jeffy.

Umpiring was shite. Why exactly has been explained beautifully by many other posters so I will leave it at that. But we wuz robbed.

Davies was a poor selection. Yeah he kept Lacras quiet but contributed nothing with his handful of possessions and cost us two goals, one of which was patently dumb and cost us the match in the end. Zac should have played instead.

Robbo came of age last night. Geeze he was good.

Lastly, hats off and three cheers for all the big improvers of the year. There were plenty and it was a good year because of it.

Walks, Eddie and Jeffy kicked 154 goals!!!!!!!
 
No bagging Betts if he's asked to play as a lead up forward. You try crumbing goals if we're not getting in their quickly and producing 50-50 contests because we lack quality tall targets. Our forwardline wasn't as open as West Coast's. There was nothing Jamison, Laidler and Henderson could do to stop those lace out kicks. Our transition from the backline was down with Yarran dragged deep.

Setanta was OK, but worn out.
its called too much time on my hands. Plus I figure i can save people having too watch crap about teams they couldnt give a rats ass about
Can you Youtube the new national anthem?

Priceless stuff up.

Thanks for all the videos wookie, much appreciated :thumbsu:

On Davies, I hope he's a resilient character because he's being thrown into the wolves when his development isn't quite ready to be starting in cut throat finals. Watching him in the VFL, I've never ever seen him play in the forward line and asking him to try and do it in a cut throat final at Subiaco was a mistake by the match committee. To those that think he's a spud and should be traded away - you're wrong. He just needs more time to develop at a lower level before he is ready for the seniors.
 
How's that moron Spud Frawley having a go at Duigan for "dropping" the mark in the last quarter. Seriously this muppet has NFI, Duigan's arm was clearly chopped and at least the Chief was able to see that.

Just wanted to commend your team on their efforts last night.
The attitude, application and commitment they showed was as good as I've seen under duress. I understand it doesn't change the result but you must be all very proud an excited about 2012.
 
evening blues

been a busy 24 hours for me so havent watched the game yet - will soon.

while it is against everything ive ever known, i will congratulate you on what id suggest was a successful season. certainly some recent arrivals to your club have added something that you previously lacked. and obviously some players roles have changed, and improved them immensely. the one thing i certainly noticed from your squad was its endurance - the ability to run out the game, despite the sub rule and its effects on other clubs. in the past it would have been 'get a few goals up on the blues and your home' but clearly no longer.

its no mystery you probably only need a KP tall at each end of the ground to become a true top 4. what are you prepared to give up for such players ? they are a rare commodity.

i wont wish you the best for 2012, cos it'd be a lie of i did.

see you next year.
 
very dissapointing loss, no doubt Gibb's injury was the difference. Very exciting things to look forward to in the next season, not really any serious injuries to prevent preseasons going for our players. Touhy, Gibbs, Kreuzer, Waite, Henderson, Warnock, Russell, Yarran, Joseph and Armfield look all about to take a next step as players.

This year we have gone about as good as I thought we should. Next year we will be fair dinkum chances to win the premiership.

trolls or not?
Thanks
go away and leave us in misery


no troll

its with regret i realise i WILL have to respect your team in 2012.

maybe, just maybe, in 2012 we pies get a chance to exorcise those demons that would allow us a peaceful afterlife.

and this has nothing to do with melbourne ;)
