Review R8: The Good, Bad and the Ugly vs. Carlton

[jamesclean]

Bad: Smith

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Sack Nicks.

Ugly: Nicks

 

[pjcrows]

Hand up - was not expecting us to be that professional and Carlton to be that dismal. A comprehensive smashing. But we need to bring it away from AO against better teams (read: coaches).

The blend of defence and attack we've been crying for, and a nippy midfield mix with Crouch out. Let's be honest, he shouldn't return.

Rachele effective at CBA - who knew? feenix67

Worrell is a star.

 

[Scorpus]

Another perfect example of master tactician Matthew Nicks

Seriously, how good is it to see the skipper back in form?

 

[Crowstar]

Credit where it's due.
Selections of Smith and Butts didn't hurt us at all.
Team played well. Happy with that.
Challenge is to back it up.

 

[Samcro24]

Carlton don’t seem to fire a shot here. I’m not surprised we won.

 

[MRB37]

Good: Jordan Dawson.

Actually used him down back a bit too

 

[Lord Crowley]

Ugly- the selection melts.

 

[Iridescence]

Sack Nicks.

Ugly: Nicks

60 point win and that's all we care about? Can't a win just be enjoyed for what it is? I don't get it.

Worrell is a star.

Peatling, Berry, Taylor, Rachele, nice to have guys getting the ball who can move through traffic without needing to put team mates under pressure with short handballs.

 

[MooreTreloar]

I come in peace to say two things:

Congratulations and thank you!!!

Great to see Carlton brought back down to earth. (Ok three things)

 

[footy4ever]

That's a solid ****ing over!

 

[Barneythecrab]

Bad: people that think Berry is slow

 

[Afcprophet]

Curtin was excellent. Strong hands. One handed pick ups.

 

[dogs105]

60 point win and that's all we care about? Can't a win just be enjoyed for what it is? I don't get it.

That was before the 60 point win. I'm enjoying it now

 

[cleanhands]

Opportunity missed by playing Smith

 

[Scorpus]

Can we lobby to play Carlton twice?

One of the only times you can relax watching the Crows under Nicks because it's never in doubt

 

[MRB37]

Worrell and Max are absolute rocks down back for us. Can do it all.

Was good seeing the midfield change too, Rachele was great when he was in there, Peatling too.

 

[Crows I Am]

Worrell was huge tonight, could be his best game for the club.

 

[krrzr]

Good: Didn't miss Crouch at all, Better off without him

 

[Mutineer]

 

[Geoffa32]

Our midfield looks so much better without Crouch.
