He's had a very quiet year and has been bashed around a bit. Needs a spell of a week or two managed or to find his mojo in the reserves. We don't need him run into the ground

And SOJ??? 5 possessions to add to his 9 last week

Time for Laurie Levi to come out and challenge anyone who wants to shoot our dear Bambi's

Silvagni played a very good game yesterday. Not sure what you were looking at. Throws himself in with abandon, chases down opponents who appear much faster, looks like an India rubber man at times.

Actually reminds me a lot of someone, not sure who. It's those long sleeves, the hunched walk....

My opinion is that he doesn't do enough AT THIS STAGE and the stats back this up. Yes, I see all the chasing and pressure that he puts on and they contribute to turnovers, no doubt. He is a natural footballer who will be a super player in 3 years time. Right now, we need just as much offensively as we need him as a defensive forward

I'm happy to accept being a harder task master with SOJ than others but seriously, I think others need to come to the party a little as well and reflect on the fact that his name and SOS playing style affords him a little less scrutiny.

Sumner had one less possession, kicked the same number of goals (should've kicked one more) and BV whose opinion I value also said that Sumner does lots of stuff behind the scenes.
Yet, while people aren't baying for Sumner's blood, there is a distinct difference in people's assessment of the two.

So, where were you actually sitting yesterday?

That would be cos SOS was terrific again and Sumner not so much.
Look beyond the stats.
I am quite astounded at how good SOS
actually is...and still a kid.

I didn't go. I watched it on television yesterday.

If rather than rationally disagree/challenge what I wrote above, you use my non-attendance as your smoking gun, one thing is for certain...you haven't made your living in a legal profession
So a precedence has been set now...you forfeit your right to an opinion on TC if you do not attend in person
Oops...you may not be familiar with the word 'precedence' given my statement above

Some good, straightforward commentary in that package.

Can Adam Papalia commentate every Carlton game? Most accurate commentator by a mile.

Papalia and Jason Bennett stand out like dogs balls against their fellow commentators. Quite a few classes above imho.

Also I've found that Jason Dunstall on Fox Footy is pretty decent. He's the only one that's not cheering for the other team when we play. Other than Jason the rest of those bastards are always against us. I hate having to listen to the commentating for an away match.

Kerridge deserves to be in the votes. He was instrumental in the Crows victory. They couldn't have one it without him. :lol:

Jesus, a good team effort by the Blues and the first post is some sad-sack fanboi slagging off a couple of our players, both of whom put in very honest performances and could not in anyway be said to be deplorable. To support his position, he just makes stuff up - what is known in the trade as lying.

I wonder why people do this? Is it just attention seeking or is it perhaps part of a penis enlargement program?

They are exactly what you want in a football caller.

Can't believe seven push on with the rest of those flogs

In a later post I admitted I used a couple of stronger words than necessary because I was caught up in the emotion just after the game. Also said elsewhere they are the right selections based on available cattle. Also said in the same post that you have selectively quoted from that it was an "amazing fight by many and good games by many."

Not sure what you think I made up or what "trade" you think this is?

Anyway......I understand why a negative comment about two blokes who tired hard detracts from the effort and fight across the board but try to stick to the footy mate instead of personal attacks on me. But I understand where you are coming from.

Go blues!

As for whipping boys. Simon White must have done OK today as no one is mentioning him!

Solid game in my opinion

Apart from what I saw, SOJ almost doubled Sumners SC score 40 v 22 which backs ups people view of why possessions alone don't sum up SOJ day.

Even though it shows that he had an average day of which he will gladly admit, it was not for lack of effort.

I don't think it's effort that is Sumner's problem, I think k it's size and strength.

Had he kicked that other goal would we be talking about him?

I've come to think they actually put a commentator on one team and another on the opposition. Probably more for stats and info. Gerard is always given the opposition to us. :lol:

So called second stringers in Papalia and Bennet kill the so called frontliners.Hopefully these two will graduate to the mainstage in time...................also agree re Dunstall.Leave the rest for dead for mine.......but i gotta give special mentions to Richo and Scott Lucas who i reckon are pretty informative and objective.

I don't think that Sumners issue is effort either, the problem is he runs around like a headless chook and doesn't use his pace effectively.

Had Sumner kicked the goal, his game will still be talked about, because he didn't put the pressure on their backline that he is required to do as his role of the small forward.
