Opinion The 'Carlton related stuff that doesn't need it's own thread' thread

I’ll forever admire Brock for his match winning goal against the tiggies

You mean the one where he was actually trying to pass the ball to Levi Casboult, missed the target because he kicked it over his head and it dribbled through for a goal.

Better lucky than good

Never trust a highlights package. My 2mins highlights reel would imply I’m good between the sheets. Reality couldn’t be further from this.

8 good things always appears good when viewed over 2 mins... but then reality hits !

Hey Esk, is that the home mesh or the away mesh.

Nothing worse going into battle and having to deal with a clash mesh situation.

Isn’t this ** guernsey ? They’re a bunch of mesh heads, aren’t they ?

Well that is probably the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me on BF

My earliest footy recollection would be season 1969 , a little hazy now but as far as i can go back.

Golly gosh there's a lot of old farts on our board ...
Late 60s WTF. ..
Early 70s for me..

A bit depressing when you can remember footy in black and white

İt's : Too Long Didn't Read

Usually a short summary of a more in-depth post.

Eg a tldr of the crow's pickswap thread would be something like:

Haha, they're all injured. Blues are fudged. We're getting pick 1.


That saves you reading pages and pages of their posts.

This pretty well reflects the mentality of Crows supporters.

My auntie had a farm,Traralgon or something of spelling similiar and when we'd stay I was always called this

Butch jinxed himself as well. Given the closeness of the game. “I think I’m having a heart attack”.

 

[gbatman]

I dare say that those who aren't deemed fit enough are only doing fitness stuff and avoiding match style training which makes sense really. So if players aren't doing match practice until their fitness levels are good enough then that's understandable. I wouldn't bother about players missing training at times, it's going to happen from time to time.

We're probably only going to be missing Docherty and probably Fasolo from our best 22 at this stage so that's not to bad. There will be a few who may not have had the most ideal preparation but if they are fit by then and have done enough skills work then that's probably enough.

It would be nice to know where the guys who are missing match training are fitness wise and how far away from that they are though.

Carlton womens team must have learnt from Casboult can’t kick cant handball fumble bumble panic, disappointing.

How much would you pay for the Carlton Team of the Century Print.
This is the initial run of 1000 prints by jamie cooper, framed with coa no 13/1000....not the artist proof

Wish Robbie Walls the best, in a bit of trouble with his property in the Hepburn fire.

 

[Christou2Kouta]

Is there any way we can make babies using Kouta and Erin Phillips' genes? Phillps stands out on the womens' field as much as Kouta stood out on the mens'.

A lightning strike at the property of AFL great Robert Walls has sparked what has become an out-of-control bushfire threatening homes in central Victoria.

The Hepburn blaze has destroyed half of Walls' 40-acre property, and an emergency warning is still in place for local residents on Sunday afternoon.

 

[Alphonse_]

Gutted for Robert Walls, half of his property has been wiped out by bushfires, and to my annoyance (but not surprise) we have flogs celebrating the news on social media. If this happened to James Hird or Eddie McGuire, I would have sincerely felt bad, i am pretty ticked off by the lack of empathy and human compassion, especially as Wallsy has had experienced a rough few years (lost his wife and mother of his kids several years ago)

Really hope the footy club can rally around one of the greats of the Navy Blues.

So apparently Faz was wrestling none other than C Curnow at this party, I know we’re all pretty disappointed that Faz injured himself but could have been way worse.
