A few pundits were sort of making excuses for Armstrong saying he did pretty well too; he actually was in the game a lot more than some of the Carlton blokes. Forgive me for not noticing Carlton had a bloke on the ground in the 44 jumper.

Smashed a contest and laced it out to seal the game. This kid is going to smash it

Really pleased with the games of the 3 debutants plus a few of the under appreciated players like McIntosh Dow Ross Brown & Miller.

Blight was impressive before being the sub due to groin tightness.

McIntosh as a defensive midfielder might just be a smart move. Has the tank and discipline to stick to a run with role as well as the smarts to get into the right spot as a get out option/ defensive support in D50.

Dow as a winger wasn't world beat by any means, but he did have some important moments where his hands in close and pressure excelled.

Miller really stood up when Blight went off and positioned himself well to be able to impact the game when needed.

Ross back as a inside midfielder made a difference to his ability to impact the game. Won't be expecting 27 & 2 every week though.

Lalor had a lot of Dusty type moments where he just willed himself to win the contest.

Armstrong won't die wondering when it comes to the contest. His attack on the ball and opponent was impressive for a debut.

Trainor looks like a 200 game player already. Will only improve from here. His calmness under pressure late was amazing.
Not sure why Ross gets under appreciated, he’s a natural mid that reg finds the footy and a good user , more valuable mid time and the better we will be for it . Played golf with a bloke that knew family well said swans had a fair crack at him last time out of contract as they’d followed him thru juniors , he loves the tigers wanted to stick , good on him coz he’s done it the hard way

Dimma derailed his career , crazy how he tried
Turning a natural ball winner into a running winger.
 
Ahh, that’s right. He’s on the channel 7 commentary team now, isn’t he. And first time for Kayo/Fox Footy having their own commentary team, so I missed out!

He was actually a reasonably good commentator on the coverage, didn't try and be a shock jock and was balanced.

Campbell staring the Blues degenerates down before backflipping is faarken gold

After the backflip, he did the "put them to sleep" celebration.. elite levels
 
Heard Ross speaking earlier in the week

Impressive fella
Also copped a mention in Yze’s post match presser about his leadership and essentially said he had been earmarked for a future leadership group position

I probably wouldn’t even considered it 6 months ago but depending on his year he could be a new contender for the captaincy in 12 to 24 months
 
What you say.
Tigers for premiers?
To be truthful I questioned the rules they brought in to stop us and his state of the game views, I said to him what makes him the grand poobahh given his only football experience was kicking a nerf football in the hallway at his home , called him an idiot and a fake, amongst other choice words
 
Congrats gamblers enjoy your winnings
If the club was smart they could have funded the new grandstand , but on a more serious note maybe Carltoon recovered some money for Wettering

My voice is gone
I was sitting there watching it relatively peacefully , I had Molly the cat curled up beside me , when we hit the front I got a little excited , she has never jumped do high or moved so fast
 
41 points down and tipped by many not to win a game this season.

That's one of the greatest home and away wins I've seen.
At least we WERNT the worst team since Fitzroy again
 
I think all the players that left, no matter how good they were, possibly held back the new culture from taking place.
Very true, it almost felt like last year the majority of our best 22 were all still Dimma’s boys, and fair enough
They had only ever had him as a coach and he had helped them achieve greatness

But so far this year it seems the players are a lot more invested in Yze and especially for our young players as both the players and Yze as an individual grow together that bond will form

But I also feel that the buy in to the plan from the likes of Nank, Broad, ect is completely galvanised and they understand even if they aren’t around to see the fruits of it how they conduct themselves will set the example for the cubs to follow

Not much doubt about that , the vibe with players either retiring or one foot out the door just wasn’t right , with a fresh young squad ooze has genuine opportunity to create a positive winning culture with BUY IN

Don’t quite agree, he helped him become a more rounded player

Without his experience of the wing Ross wouldn’t be as effective as he is on the outside that complements his inside game

He played as a outside mid on Thursday night and that is essentially the same as the wing in terms of providing outlet running

Probably turned him from a 20 possie a game player to a 25+

It’s also what has helped him become more of a threat when the stoppage at half forward that resulted in those goals he kicked

Did you tell him Gryan Miers is superior to Messi the way he scans the field?
 
Stats are shit if you go by them we would have lost by 10 goals.
The only stat that matters is the scoreboard at the end of the game……oh and P Cripps 6 votes
