[Blue_Fusion]

Today's game has proven Norf are going down while we are rising. Don't worry about the end result, we have shown a LOT of resolve today for such a young team, Carlton of old would've lost by 10 goals plus. Just a pity that our youngsters ran out of steam and couldn't complete the comeback.

Charlie and Cuningham were great today.

 

[TBellicious]

Hard to be too displeased. Plenty of green shoots.

Rising star nom coming up for either Cunners or Charlie. Take your pick.

 

[Neku]

Good effort boys, definitely positive signs.

 

[RAPPA]

Waite is a flog

 

[T2B_]

Have to say regardless of end result, Kreuz was an absolute behemoth.

18 touches, 46 hitouts, 9 tackles.

God I love him and his dodgy ankles/foot/whatever the supposed medicos said.

 

[mikeythemoocow]

Got smashed in the 1st. There is a lot of fight in this young group. Plenty of positives to take away.

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

sorry for the intrusion but the scumps absolutely reamed you blokes/ladies absolute joke the standard of umpiring atm

just look at the bright side
kreuzer gave goldy an almighty bath
gibbs had 38 disposals 5 clearances 6tackles and 3goals

good luck until we next meet.

 

[Mr_Plow]

Gibbs was a monster today.

Charlie and Cunners emerging.

The days are not bad.

 

[reubsblues]

Free kick north

 

[BlueVision]

Plenty to like from the team after qtr time....the Carlton of old would have folded like a pack of cards.

A lot of young kids looking forward to the break.

 

[kingkingston]

just like the St Kilda game, come back and hit the front....then lose with the other team running away

really disappointing

 

[LanceRomance]

Sharks On A Plane imagine how much we would have won by if we had Charlie Cameron instead of gibbs

 

[ferrisb]

Not the result we wanted, but did well to fight back.

Important we stay in these kind of games. That experience and mentality will be crucial once we are more competitive.

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

C Curnow
Cuningham
Kreuzer

 

[Neese]

So should I watch the first half?

 

[T2B_]

Charlie Curnow - 17 touches, 5 marks, 5 tackles, 2 goals

 

[Old M8]

Kruzer is an absolute ******* machine

 

[Bobmonkey]

Break out game from Cuningham, Charlie gets better as the year goes and Willo looks like a 100 gamer down back.

Loved the effort to fight back from 45 points down. It wasn't too long ago that Carlton would have just given up, you can really see the Bolton influence on the boys.

 

[La Dispute]

Thank you Dave Cuningham

 

[Blue__Balls]

So should I watch the first half?

Skip the first quarter and you're all good.

 

[Benj7]

Unlucky you guys played really well for most of the game but these things happen got some amazing players and really underrated you blokes well done.

 

[Foucault1989]

My initial in the moment response is disappointment but then my old mate called rational thought comes up and says 'look at all those young guns...Cuningham's side step, Charlie's leap, fishers hands, Samo's poise, Weiters smarts, marchy's marks, Cripps is a bull, Macreadie a cool cucumber'. Thanks rational thought. You're a ripper

 

[Chism]

Very proud of our boys but very angry at the same time.

Still cannot think what would of been had the Umps been not favoring the tin rattlers setting up that 45pt lead and killing our mojo of a young team that took 2 Qtrs to get back.

One day i suppose we will be on the decent end of the Umps but until then mehhh.

Fantastic effort though to hit the lead after all this with such a young group out there and our future is very bright, Doc and Simmo were magnificent while Cripps was scragged all day but kept trying.

Lots of positives for our boys but at the end of it it is a big * you umpires.

 

[ShanDog]

Kreuz was huge. So was Gibbs. Great signs from some of the younger players, but a little disappointed Fisher and SPS didn't get much of it. Must be shagged.

If we'd managed to stop the rot early, we could have been in the game longer, but tired legs got us in the end.
