Review Round 6, 2021 - Carlton vs. Brisbane Lions

[ZoBlitz]

Well got soaked on the walk over to the ground!

 

[lionsrules]

Will take that. It felt like it was ours to lose like 2 years ago. But that was a character win and bring on port.
Big berry back for Gardiner
Neale will play
Now port have the 6:40 game tomorrow let’s see how that goes.

 

[JeffPapers]

Gutsy win, with Neale, Gardiner, Robbo and Harris all copping it throughout that game. Thought McCluggage was brilliant and Zorko had one of the best games i've seen from him in some time - kept us in it during the second half. Great signs from Dev as well

 

[FLVanLandingham]

McCluggage and Zorko in firing form. Lovely.

So many injuries.... hope andrews is fine.same with neale..


A long long long game, a lot of players popped up and fired really well, but we also had some bad screw ups.

building nicely into the season though

 

[luthor]

I'm ecstatic.

We were bashed, smashed and belted from pillar to post by a Carlton team that was absolutely desperate to prove a point.

Fantastic gutsy win,

Very proud of that effort

 

[jackess]

McCluggage clearly our best, Zorko very good, Neale and Lyons good too. All our mids were at least ok

Adams and Starce great down back.

Forwards all did their job apart from McStay who had a down day

Answerth for Dizzy if injured
Berry for Prior if fit.

TBerry pushing for a full game as well

 

[Toffee Lion]

Everything was against us today but we pereservered and we fought out a strong win.

Super proud of the boys, hope they can rest up because boy we got some casualites

 

[martinson]

Zorko McCluggage Rich all awesome. Lyons not far away.

Strong team effort.

We still have some good players very much down and a couple in the shame file but I don't want to start a brawl.

Happy to get the win which we deserved.

 

[M Malice]

Just happy to get away with the win, the Blues were right up for this one. We did fantastically particularly when you consider we had so many players having a down day eg, McStay, Andrews, Lester, Daniher, Birchall.

If you don't vote for McCluggage as one of the 5 you're a bum.

 

[Jivlain]

Zorko BOG for mine, not a great kick late but I'll forgive tired legs. Was very good otherwise.
Clugga superb.
Very happy with Adams and Robertson.
Just a salute for Neale for playing as well and fighting as hard as he did while walking limping wounded.

 

[Zhesty]

McCluggage bog.

Berry jnr has really improved over the last 12 months.

 

[CarterS]

Robertson was one of our best. A really good, character building win. Carlton would have beaten a lot of sides tonight.

 

[Sproj]

Had no right to win that and yet we did, comfortably in the end. Good signs.

 

[martinson]

The big plus for us this year is Zorks back to his best. Haven't seen him hit the ball that hard in over 2 years.

 

[luthor]

McCluggage clearly our best, Zorko very good, Neale and Lyons good too. All our mids were at least ok



TBerry pushing for a full game as well

I was pretty negative about T Berry last year.

I felt he was below AFL standard, admittedly based on a very small sample size.

Happy to say I have come full circle.

He's been very, very good for us this season.

Well done young Tom

 

[irish]

Well sometimes you have to win dirty and ugly. Blues smashed us and we got home . Got all the umpiring and the bounce had the commentary wishing to see the blues home , yet we won

well done boys !

 

[Cooties]

I've never been more nervous being up 30 points with 10 minutes to go. Huge effort to hold onto that win backed up by a massive second quarter. Clugga, Neale, Zorko all stood up and every week the effort from Robbo is top notch. Dev should hopefully get a sustained run in the team

The sheer disappointment in Eddie McGuire's voice when Daniher kicked that massive goal to seal the win was the cherry on top of the cake of blatant Blues barracking we had to listen to all night from commentary. Some highlights from commentary for not knowing Lions players was Charlie McCarthy, Oscar McDonald

He will be a good player with experience because he has a total passion for the contest.

 

[Lazza16]

Disagree...should have have been very comfortable win except for umpire 8.

 

[martinson]

Disagree...should have have been very comfortable win except for umpire 8.

What was with that guy ???

The in the back to Ah Chee was just about reportable. Dumbfounded.

Thought Eddie was by far the least biased of the commentators but just my opinion.

 

[fugitive]

Why do you say that?

Everything was against us today

 

[Lazza16]

Not sure... he has an anti Lion streak everytime we get him.

 

[Sproj]

Disagree...should have have been very comfortable win except for umpire 8.

That was my point, our boys were almost umpired out of the game.

 

[CarterS]

I'm a bit over people constantly playing the victim and saying the commentators and umpires were against us. Literally every week.
