You know the rules. Hope there is someone to votes for!

Someone will deserve a vote this week.

  Flying the Flag
Posted by: LP - 05-24-2019, 02:32 AM - Forum: Robert Heatley Stand - Replies (50)

This is the best news I've heard for a decade!

Quote:Carlton were dismayed that no one showed support for their former skipper Marc Murphy after his ribs were broken in an encounter with Giants' enforcer Shane Mumford in the first quarter of last Sunday's 93-point loss to Greater Western Sydney.

The Blues were 39 points down at the time but it was only skipper Patrick Cripps who made any attempt to remonstrate with Mumford as Murphy lay on the ground in pain.

Blues coach Brendon Bolton revealed that Cripps was particularly disappointed at the team's response at that point and said the moment was an opportunity for teammates to express their feelings.

"It is important to fly the flag when someone gets hurt," Bolton said.

  Question time
Posted by: Wet Willie - 05-20-2019, 05:14 AM - Forum: Robert Heatley Stand - Replies (46)

When we were getting smashed in the middle, why weren't our (few) senior players moved to the centre to assist Cripps?  Our small bodied mids were being mauled.

Why did no players assist or comfort Murphy or Jones when they were badly injured? Nobody went near them...Weitering was the only who went up to Jones (whilst Pittman got the giggles in the centre).

Why is Cripps the only player prepared to step up physically to an opponent who rag dolls one of our own?

When we fumble and lose possession, instead of laying a tackle to try to get the ball back we seem more concerned about running back to form our defensive grid or set up.  This might be "the team thing", but it allows the opponent to continue with no pressure on him.  Fisher, O'Brien, Walsh & SPS all did this yesterday...

Why do we repeatedly kick along the wings, back into huge congestion, instead of maintaining possession & switching play?  Which version is our actual game plan under pressure?

This game is a curtain raiser to the Carlton vs St Kilda game. It gives us a chance to peruse the kids.

Next Sunday we play the 'Aints at Marvel in an afternoon game. The seconds are a curtain raiser.
On this week's effort, even the 'Aints should beat us.
