Yep.

EB1 is spot on here, CC. I watched the replay (lashed out and got Kayo tacked onto our Telstra a/c) and there's no doubt there was a 'hesitation' moment and he didn't commit to the mark in his usual style. IN NO WAY should that be seen as casting any doubt on Crippa's courage... in fact it was only so noticeable because it is totally unlike Crippa, but that day a degree of hesitation was apparent in a lot of blokes from time to time.

Against cheats.com.au in the last qtr some of his disposal by foot was sublime and helped us come back and win the game... then against the D1ckers I saw him kick into our forward line and land the ball beautifully into the hands of an opponent... does it too often and some of his bollocking work in the clinches is, well, ineffectual.
I was one of the people in the game tread that was critical. His lack of defensive pressure and hunger for contact has become so apparent. This is countered by his above average disposal, but when that abandons him (as it did for some of the last game) he becomes a liability. He either continues to kick it really well or he does not, if that goes he is in trouble.

This ultra close scrutiny of a players every move makes me nervous and must be very disconcerting for the players. Have we been in lockdown too long?? ?

Fair enough Baggers (and EB) ... I just thought it was a monumentally clumsy attempt and of course we all know he shirks nothing.

The other angle shows Casboult's left hand into his side and pushes Lobb to the side - notice Lobb isn't sent flying forwards but gets spun and ends up facing Casboult?

Interesting by comparison, I think Cripps has gained some acceleration but hasn't really gained any top speed.

Just looking at the reserves highlights. We managed some of the easiest goal I've ever seen a Carlton team kick. Almost all were from the square. It would be really nice if we could replicate that in the seniors!
There were 2 long bombs from Moore from his own clearances from the ruck. Most impressive. Pity he can't do that in the seniors either!

The footy gods owed us that one so I’m not in the camp that we were lucky but rather we were unlucky early controlled the game but could t finish off and then ended it with a kick that was pure gold.
Was a crap game crap skills and we had a lot of blokes that were not playing anywhere near their best yet IMO we were the better team for most of the night just didn’t put it on the scoreboard.
Sometimes you win ugly that’s what good teams do. Looking at this one positively we deserved the small win and have tons of upside.
Bring on GC reckon our boys will be very keen to show the football world we are further advanced then they are.
And so we should be.

We deserved to win this win about as much as we did last week.
The only difference is, that a real side would have put Freo away with 10 minutes to go when we kicked all those behinds.
we really failed to pile on the scoring when we needed to, which made it much closer than it should have been.
Freo were crap. They got 2 free goals from non existant frees, and the final free kick was the karma bus hitting them, not us getting one we were owed. We bank the 4 points, and that game was almost as dissapointing as the Hawthorn game for mine.
IMHO, we need to start taking our chances, and the magnifying glass needs to be on Cripps for his ability to take a regulation shot for goal, and impersonate Levi from a few years back when he was as unreliable as a broken watch.
