Finally picked a balanced side.
Kudos to the players for performing well and winning with a decent margin.
Balanced yet diverse, lots of points of difference...harder to match up on.

Cripps and Walsh with an equal match high 11 score involvements...tells a bit of a story.
If they're both influencing we're going OK

The whole team worked hard until the end running hard to get into position for the next play.
Kemp is my new favorite player and have never really understood why he has been in and out of the side.
If we can fix the way the ball comes into the fwd 50 then we would've won by 200+.
Maybe it's the forwards not leading hard enough to make separation ala Fev style?
Was nice to finally win a game with a full set of finger nails

We kicked as many goals this week as we have the last 3 weeks combined.

I like the boy.
He's only played the 12 games, so we probably shouldn't be too quick to judge.
He's not the most gifted but he gives effort, and has a booming, penetrating kick.
Yep ,he makes the occasional blue but usually he's in the more efficient of our disposers.
His efficiency is usually up around the 80%...it was again today.
Not sure why he found himself matched up against giants on a couple of occasions, but he didn't shirk the contest.
I reckon he also has a bit of 'dick' factor about him.
At least twice today a Sun's player wanted to give him a whack.
We need a few dicks.
I'm warming to Boyd. He goes ok and I think he'll get better and gain more composure with experience.

Nice win and great to finally see us move the ball more freely and play on rather then the safe stop start brand we have become known for.
Still we did it against a bottom to middle tier team so apart from being nice to see us win I'm keeping it in perspective and wont be getting ahead of myself.
Would hope it builds confidence going into the bye and think its so important for this group to get a few top 4-6 scalps in the run home to prove we can compete at the higher level as from what i can recall we haven't beaten any top 4 team in this rebuild - finals are likely gone but so important IMO to get something useful out of what's been a disaster of a year and showing we can not just get close to but beat the better teams is a massive tick to taking the next step and making finals

Boyd, like Kemp and Cincotta seem to have adjusted nicely with a bit of consistency. Consistency can't be underestimated. Now it's over to TDK, Pitto, Martin, Fogarty, and Cunners to follow suit. I've probably missed some too. Dow. George....
Finally speaks to some relative list fitness. Nod to JR and crew, whom I've be critical of when our sick bay has been overflowing.

Once they got that roll of 12 goals, you could see the confidence and enthusiasm grow. Now, to bring that into the next game.
Lets hope the penny has dropped for this mob.
Dow has been impressive for the time he has come on.
Re: AFL Rd 14 2023 Post Game Passion Carlton vs Gold Coast - Gointocarlton - 06-18-2023
Saw this on the twitter sphere:
Dow in 25 minutes:
8 touches @ 88%
3 contested
5 kicks @ 80%
4 score involvements
3 inside 50s (our equal 5th most)
1 intercept
213 metres gained
1 clearance
Good work Dowey.
