Re: AFL Rd 3 2023 Post Game Prognostications Giants vs Carlton - Thryleon - 04-01-2023
Sorry I missed something.
Lochiel o brien has been ineffective as a sub in each game hes come on.
He did ok against Richmond but he may as well have not have played against Geelong and today it was a bridge too far and his final quarter was putrid.
He either starts next game if acres doesn't come up or needs a game in 2s.

So very disappointing. Just hoping that one day we turn the corner and just win games against opposition that are shite. Make no mistake GWS are carp and we only managed to stumble across the line because Cripps had a blinder, the backline was solid and an umpire plucked something out of his hole that will be talked about more than the game and how bad we were. Yes I'm happy we got the points but when do we turn the corner. Maybe next week.

The positives
- W away
- W in a different way (kicking pts. Who'd have thought that was a thing)
- W in windy conditions
- W in front of minuscule crowd
- W after q4 turnaround
- W despite in-game injuries
- Great negating from a few (Newman ?)
- Ability to hold on for the W
Needs urgent attention
- Goalkicking, obviously
- Pressure around the ground (Durds aside)
- Connection
- Consistency
- Basic skills
- Player durability

Persisting with LOB is not working.......time to give Binns a few games.
It’s hard to tackle when you’re the one with the ball. Crippa and Doc can just keep doing what they’re doing.

Err they need to defend better
Re: AFL Rd 3 2023 Post Game Prognostications Giants vs Carlton - LoveNavy - 04-01-2023
Another positive
- Carlton headline doesn't read:
Brave
Plucky
Spirited ?

Post match they said the dissent call was right and what wasn’t shown on tv was Coniglio was clearly on the wrong.
I felt like a lot of our marks werent called marks which was confusing.
The ground looked like crap.
Crippa chucked us on his back again to get us out of that hole.
So many missing players.
Ffs play LOB for a good spell and then decide his future. He’s not the only one that makes really dumb decisions.
Re: AFL Rd 3 2023 Post Game Prognostications Giants vs Carlton - Micky0 - 04-01-2023
Must say one of the most unenjoyable games to watch.
Re: AFL Rd 3 2023 Post Game Prognostications Giants vs Carlton - Baggers - 04-01-2023
Well done Blacres and Hewey for playing through pain and doing well.
As others have said, winning ugly is important - beats the shyte out of loosing bravely, etc.
Terrific leadership from Crippa and Doc.
Welcome back JSOS.
Nick Newman, take a bow.
Hollands, again, did some brilliant defensive work late in the game. The sort of kid who will do something great in a GF (to save the game).
The dissent was from Coniglio, apparently an expletive or two that didn't make the air-waves. The umpire explained to Whitfield that it wasn't against him, it was against Coniglio (the dissent).
10 more shots should have equated to a 5+ goal win. We kept them in it with poor finishing.
The playing surface was shyte... the Midgets seemed to know that but we did a lot of slipping over.
