We were in disarray because of injury. I assume Cowan has done a hammy. I’d expect Haynes to be fine and Blacres. Not great though.

Very good half.
Dominating everywhere except for the scoreboard.
Things got disjointed once we had 3 or 4 players on the bench injured but we've otherwise been in control.
We do 40 more mins of that, we simply win.

 

[RedFury]

With the mounting injuries and the way we played the last 10 minutes of that quarter (partly due to the injuries), I've got almost no confidence that we play this out for the win.

 

[DirtyLeeds]

Love Charles but that smart arse backwards handpass woke up the Aints...

 

[Jacks Seething Rage]

Acres having a rugged year...but he's Dean/Hickmott/Wiggins brave.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

At least Acres looks like he’s going to keep going

And Haynes by the sounds of it.

 

[teknodeejay]

Haynes

Looked neck related on the tv rather than HIA

 

[Jimmyonesix]

Which Carlton do we get after the break ..

 

[gbatman]

Injuries are a bit of an issue here.

 

[BlueSuede]

Great start and game so far. Absolutely unbelievable to have 4 players injured by half time, 3 of them defenders. Makes it very tough to adjust from here unfortunately.

It wasn't a coincidence that things shifted when we had so many players off. Actually did well to grit our teeth. Hoping we'll be able to reset at half time.

 

[BlueTongue]

Jeez Saints are playing dirty. Just crashing into the contest with no effort to win the ball. All Elbows and knees.
We need Tom to start throwing his body into them.

 

[Blues_Man]

At least Acres and Haynes are both back out on the ground. Hopefully means they will be fine.

The bench isn't on the ground, Haynes looks a bit sore and sorry sitting there

 

[myblueroan]

Stamos , I meant we have been lucky that Saints missed those shots for goal.
Not that we've been lucky to be in front!

Nah we'll win.
Acres and Haynes will get back out there. Cowan unsure.

It's all they've got.
Dirty Deeds
And a sleazy coach.

 

[myblueroan]

Nah we'll win.
Acres and Haynes will get back out there. Cowan unsure.

Anyone see what happened to Moo?

 

[teknodeejay]

Haynes had the worst debut
But he’s become the 2nd or 3rd most important defender down there now
Has totally reignited his career

I meant walking around on the ground at half time.

 

[Ahuitzotl]

injuries a HUGE worry now

Backline with Sos Weiters and Haynes is F.A.B!

 

[SolGoodman]

Need more from Evans and Mots, Harry having an almost game.

 

[Wickzki]

Motlop 2 possessions

2 possessions and been around the ball a lot. Has done nothing in the contests, etc.

A lot of half efforts that amount to nothing regardless of where he is on the ball.

At least he has 3 tackles.

 

[teknodeejay]

Anyone see what happened to Moo?

I’ll wager hamstring related again but I’m guessing
Didn’t see him back out on the bench but might have missed it

 

[BIuebagger]

JSOS has been massive. Well done Binnsy, liked his game so far too. When we dominated contested ball earlier in the quarter, it was looking lights out. Hoping we can produce a big 25 mins of that in Q3
