Is this the sort of game that Inboltswetrust doesn't comment on?? ?

Our best win for the year. even when we were down by 3 in the 1st we were playing very well, apart from scoring. Very even spread across the board. Our threadbare backline did exceptionally well. At times we had so much space going forward we over thunk it and made the wrong decision. Fantastic result. Big Johnno Brown commented on the atmosphere down at Princes Park this week as he paid the club a visit. Said the whole playing group was extremely positive and supportive. Think the days of suspect culture are long gone. Really hope we continue from here. We could be in for something really, really special I feel (keep a lid on it)

Here it is: "We will not make finals in 2022" after losing this pathetic game to Richmond. I'm serious. We need 4 more wins. Where are they comming from ? Maybe WC is one. Maybe. Adelaide? Good luck with that on their ground. Rest of them... doubtful. We had an easy draw and bathed in the glory.We now only need 3 more wins ;D

Great win. Agree with those who rate it out best for the season. A very even contribution from all.
Played that hard at the footy contested game that will serve us well in finals but also slowed it down and chipped it around when we needed.
Also seem to finally have a hard edge about us now. Seeing skinny fisher show some attitude to Fyfe after he tackled him late in the game, Jack mouthing off at every opportunity, Newman tells his opponent every time he has a win on them - this sort of stuff is what the great hawthorn and Brisbane teams had spades of. Who’s our coach again.
How good is the development of Cottrell, Young, Lob and TDK. One positive of having so many injuries is these sorts of young blokes get continuity and Cottrell in particular looks to have taken his game to a new level. His disposal is now clean and he is a bloody hard two way running winger who can hit the scoreboard. Not an easy match up that bloke.

I'm with you regards Longmuir. I dislike him. Despise his flat affect and monotone drivel. Human proclivity- like what you like, hate what you hate.

The way they have developed since last year is just one of the more notable things Voss can take some credit for. Young wasn't making an impression at the Dogs, Cottrell was patchy and his skills were an issue. Lochie O'Brien has probably saved his career and is doing a great job on a wing. As for Tom de Koning, he really showed something today. His huge leap and tap to Hewett, who kicked down Charlie's throat, was one of the best pieces of play you could ever see. (Pity Charlie stuffed up the kick!) The way he nullified one of the competition's best ruckmen was lovely to see.

Mind you, I Think playing at Marvel helps TDK: he likes the fast, hard conditions. His efforts were great.
Jack Silvagni may have had only a could of taps, but his swarming on the ball after the tap was lovely. He managed 10 or 11 marks and really provided a target around the ground.

What is extremely evident, especially today, is the camaraderie the team displays. Players, coaching staff, boot studders, united as one for a common cause and more importantly for each other. The last time I saw a Carlton team like this was 1995. Voss and co coached brilliantly today. But what impressed me most today was not Walshy's 40 possessions, not Charlies explosive 5 goals, or TDK roughing up Darcy, it was this commentary when Fish tackled Fyfe over the line in the 4th:
Jordan Lewis: "I like it Howey, This Carlton side has got a nastiness about them, which you can't say that they have had in the past five, maybe even longer"
Jono Brown: "Well it'll have something to do with the coach"
Jordan Lewis "But right now, they are physically and mentally and verbally intimidating"
Brought a tear to this old Bluebaggers eye. Finally!!

Just got into Singapore and missed the match. Nice surprise when I arrived.

The way Voss is going this year I have been eating humble pie by the slabful....haha.
Doing what I thought he couldn't do, and more! Good to see us back!

Stop talking up Voss. The experts o TV have been banging on about Craig McRae being the best coach this season so far. Making the most with what players he has. WTF have we been doing with more key players out than almost every other side in the league? So far our coaches in total, and players efforts is more than pleasing. This is a foundation we can really build on. Now we need to not be complacent with the Saints. The next few games could really set up a great season with some finals experience.
