Re: Rd 16: Post Game Passion: Carlton vs Melbourne - blue4life - 07-09-2017
Another good effort, at least we supporters no longer need to worry about the team giving 100%.
The usual story really, the game was there to be won but we just lacked polish, our skill errors become more frequent as we get tired.
Cripps had his calf strapped so it doesn't look like a serious injury but he'll probably miss next week.
Another game into Silvagni, Curnow, Macredie, Fisher, Cunningham, SPS and Weitering, which will bear fruit in a year or two.
Jones very good again, Hogan 10 touches and a goal but the goal was kicked on Weitering, it really looks as though Liam is the real deal as a top line defender.

Not sure. Killed it in the first half then faded.
Haven't watched any other games this week so not sure who else put their hand up.

Just on Kerridge...
9 Clangers today. Simmo had 6 which is far too many also.
The thing with Kerridge is that a few directly cost goals (and another was the out on the full from the set shot).
By comparison, Doc and Murphy had 69 disposals for 1 clanger :o

Damn - really needed to beat the dirtiest side in the league. Plain fact of the matter is we're not good enough. Close, but still can't kick enough goals.
Turnovers yet again killed us. Kerridge did butcher it a couple of times but his last quarter was epic - almost got us over the line.

He did fade, but another 19 disposals this week. 10 Contested
10 Marks, 3 of them inside 50, 4 contested marks and 2 goals...
Add the cumulative effect and he has been the best Rising Star eligible player (including all previously nominated) over the last 3 weeks.
Has to get the nod

Fair enough, didn't realise he had so many. The goal he kicked in the 2nd ????
He will absolutely take a game by the scruff of the neck sooner than later. Love him

Kerridge is a turn over merchant...did some good things but critical momements where he gave away the footy hurt us
Sheehan...not quick or smart enough for AFL footy.
No Cripps really cost us clearance wise...Gibbs and Murphy dont do enough in that area.
Weitering was ordinary..lowered his colours to T. Mcdonald and seems to have lost some confidence.
Jones was good....
Kruezer beat Gawn IMO .
Levi...good but couldnt nail a couple of crucial goals...
Charlie...good again..
Melbourne are crape and the umpiring was even more crape...
24-20 is hard to beat when you are tired and frustrated....I dont normally whinge about umpiring but it was atrocious...

He'll be fine, needs time to get up to AFL pace and use to AFL umpiring, AFL umpiring is so different from any other level of the game.

BB will hate this result, I reckon we had the top 5 or 6 players on the ground but still lost!
