Our 4th win, not convincing but beggars can't be choosers. We got the job done with some names missing.

Carlton 16.13.109
Port 14.7.91
 
got the job done.
another game with plenty to work on for the upcoming week.
congratulations to the milestone players in Scotland, Walker and Murphy.
celebrate today and tomorrow move on to next week again.
well done boys:thumbsu:
 
Happy with the win. Obvious issues, but also a bit to like.

Cachia and Bell are monsters and each bring something to the table, Bell in particular as a goalkicker.

Bootsma had a better game.

Didn't get to see much of Menz or give him much of a chance for that matter, but we got to see his tackle prowess and natural skill.

Murph makes a handy small forward.

A workman like effort is about as complimentary as I can be about that game.

Plenty of turnovers gifted to us some easy scores. Waite provided a good focal point but Kreuzer has to kick more accurately. Solid performances from most but nothing outstanding from anyone really except Murphy.

Good to get a win missing key players but I really hope we lift in coming weeks.

Still, gladly take the 4 points and learn from a few things.
 
Missed it unfortunately.
Who were some of your better players today?

Murphy, Henderson, Judd best 3 in my opinion.

Better efforts needed from players like Lucas, Simpson. Disposal questionable and Lucas still doesn't understand the physicality required to be an AFL player..
 
Really worried about McLean, Judd and Curnow's ability to defend on the spread because they lack real leg speed to assist in this area. Some of the other mids either get drawn into the contest far too easily or simply pay lip service to defensive pressure.

Opposition teams score far too easily on us regularly.

On a bad note: umpiring.

Holy hell I know it's bad in general, we all know that, but bloody hell it's like they were trying to keep Port in it.
 
Wasn't the score 109 to 91?

That's what the TV said yes. Commentators were confused in the last few minutes too. I think you are right. Look at the AFL site though.

The game is unwatchable, combine poor umpiring or rule interpretations with ordinary skills.....:thumbsdown:

Thought the Bell 50 metre penalty was a joke, should not of touched the ball but tried to do the right thing and kicked the ball back and the Port player just stuck his arms out without even attempting to mark the ball and conned the umpire big time.:mad:

Agree with the top 3.

Lucas at least tackled today. 2nd best dream team score for Carlton for those who play.
 
different outlets are reporting different scores and each score falls on either side of the betting line for the match lol
