Handicap was 48.5 points

If only we'd kicked straight.

As usual dominated a lot of the 3rd quarter but couldn't convert.

Competitive with Cripps scragged and on one leg.

Kerr presenting well.

C Curnow pretty good while getting scragged as well.

Not a bad comeback from Silvagni.

Kerridge some very good and bad as usual.

Jones pretty good in defence.

Kreuzer a poor showing, letting that spud Sinclair out mark him so often and hurt him up forward.

Lang good first half then ran out of puff.

We are playing with 21 every match that O'Brien plays at the moment unfortunately.

Lamb not enough of the ball as usual.

Dow the 2nd most clearances.

What's with the umpire telling that dick the rules? It's not his job to tell him he can't run around, FFS!

My feeling exactly. I'd hate for that to have been a match winning goal.

Mentioned that in the game thread.

It is Auskick though.

Until each team plays each other the same number of times, the AFL, as a fair dinkum competition, cannot be taken seriously.

He (Mr Swann) said the honour and pride associated with the club's traditional navy blue jumper was priceless.

No way that should've been 5 goals. Should've been very close. Just our 3rd qtr with shocking use going into the 50 and finishing at goal cost us a very close game as that qtr was otherwise close in general play.

Daisy and Simmo both need to retire at season end

According to the commentators, Kerridge played on Hanneberry most of the night - hard to tell from TV who's manning who, but if so he did a terrific job... not sure Hanneberry even made it to 10 disposals, and Sam had at least 25. So he's possibly my Carlton MOTM.

O'Brien doesn't get enough of the ball, but gee his kicking is just perfect. Makes our forwards look so much better when the ball is kicked to their advantage.

On the other hand, Dow's kicking is woeful and was also guilty of taking too long on the ball sometimes. But his in-and-under work was excellent, so he'll probably get a MVP vote or two from me.

Agreed with the rest. SOSOS was outstanding first half but tailed off in the second.

When I heard the name "Adam Goodes" I couldn't find the remote fast enough.

Good result.

We were with them till halfway through the third. No reward for effort and then we dropped away.

Big rest now and I reckon a good back end of the season.

And then letting him break the rules anyway. Gutless @#$%&! maggots.

We dominated alot of that 3rd qtr and kicked point after point after point.

I seriously can’t believe how bad we can be to only lose by 5 goals.


I’m surprised to be sitting in my lounge room surrounded by a broken aroma candle holder, a broken remote control a broken leg off the coffee table a broken picture frame and anything else that was within arms reach.

If only Kerridge didn't butcher the ball so much as he works so hard.

I'm just home from daughters concert just turned TV on to see Oshea give away a free kick.
Celebrate another 5 goal loss.
Lòoking at the stats 9 minutes in 3rd to 16 minutes 4 behinds in a row and one to start last quarter.
Please tell me they weren't set shots

I think they scored at least five goals from free kicks. Franklin 2, Heeney, Sinclair and Parker.

Correct. You can't take 1 step off the line. Even if he took a step backward toward the boundary so he could step forward - PLAY ON!
