Oppo Camp Regular Non Eagles Discussion

If we don't lose a game from here I reckon we will go all the way

Honestly, Geelong beating Richmond is likely the best result for us now.
We could end up 4th and play Port Adelaide in Adelaide which is a great first-up final for us.

Problem is Geelong can afford to drop a game if we do, and they may just decide to not go hard at the Tigers.

At this point its better to hope Brisbane f*ck up somewhere (Collingwood?), as we can catch them on percentage.

Its quite funny watching Mason Cox try to pick the ball up off the ground and then handpass properly before getting tackled. I think the league still really underestimates how athletic NicNat is for a giant.

De Koenig robbed at the quarter time siren there

11 cm shorter than Cox, but for sure his ground work is incredible for someone that big. Even compared to players a few inches shorter like Darling.

Bruce: "a promising start by Cox".
Cox....2 handball so far

They should both retire

 

[Yamumluvsbigcox]

There needs to be prior opportunity. This current interpretation is rubbish

These new HTB rules will make players want to be 2nd to the ball to tackle rather than win it themselves .

 

[Mulldogg]

Any danger of a Blues player going to that coke head from the Pies?

 

[Gods_Son23]

Some of the handballing is atrocious. So many to feet.

 

[CoastersFlag No.5]

Jack Martin brain fade trying to pick out Cripps instead of a 50m set shot.

Carlton are still trash even when they’re having a half decent season

They make so many errors, errors of judgement too.

 

[Coasters7]

How did they both play? Are we giving either of them a shot at Brisbane?

none

Gold Coast are a joy to watch. Expect to see them featuring in finals soon if they stay on track. (that's a big if, given their track record, mind you)

 

[KBLT]

Did the commentator just say "Chandler Boseman"??

 

[DirtySandman]

We’ve all had a laugh at Mayne over the years, but he seems a decent bloke, and In the end has done alright since his shift to Collingwood.

had a bad head blow today, hope he recovers ok.

 

[Monocle]

Just watch the collision / bump Cripps and Mayne .......... absolute lights out for Mayne

Big unit is Cripps . .......... BRING HIM HOME.

 

[Shuestar13]

Norf are a rabble

Imagine a midfield with Shuey, Kelly, Cripps, Yeo, Gaff, Sheed and Redden

but I can't see us being able to offer enough

Too many inside mids

Bad feels for Mayne . He git absolutely destroyed.

Cripps = an oversized Priddis imo

His size allows him to go forward and take strong grabs, which is great but he’s a woeful goal kicker. 4.8 from set shots this year, and I reckon I’ve watched about 1/2 of those and they all seemed dead in front about 30 m out to me.

He’s a beast no doubt but I feel like the novelty of him being KPP size and a midfielder is wearing off. I’m not sure I’d want him for what it’d cost.

Plus his body is absolutely banged up for a 25 or so year old. Been carrying a very average Carlton side for a long time.

Extremely long odds that he’d ever come to us anyway but what he’d command in terms of salary cap pressure I don’t reckon would be worth it.

Would have been great to get him before he re-signed his last contract with the Blues.

Yeah he always seems to be playing under duress. Maybe that’s why he’s been playing like a dinosaur this year
