Here's a test for the lads, Filth coming hard in the last, can they hold on?
Re: Practice Match: Blues v Pies, Fri 24 Feb - Gointocarlton - 02-24-2023
Had they have kicked straight in the last (at the scoring end) the Filth would have won comfortably.
Re: Practice Match: Blues v Pies, Fri 24 Feb - Gointocarlton - 02-24-2023
10 pt win
Things to work on:
Goal Kicking TDK, SOS
Stop leading to pockets, makes every shot a difficult one
General composure entering I50, slow dow, select the option and execute
TDK needs to do more around the ground, he is mobile, use it. He does the difficult stuff well and the easy stuff poorly
Loopy kicks into the fwd line
Zone off/positioning seems untidy
Ground ball cleanliness
Disposal to players under pressure saw this 10-15 times in just the first half
Tall Defenders need to come across and spoil the tall fwd
Acres needs to tidy up disposal
Cowan needs to stop star gazing (as in watching his idols), you belong, hunt the footy. (Just as I type this, he attacks a loose ball hard with intent, very nice)
Lewis Young cannot be relied upon to go fwd
Lewis Young is not strong enoug for big power fwds, monstered by McStay who isn’t a monster
Ed C ooked lost
Plowman is an enigma
Umps needs to watch the scragging and hold of Cripps at stoppages
Positives:
No injuries
Hollands will be a ripper
Bam Bam and George very important to us
Cripps looks the goods..again
Wish we could play premiership point games at Ikon

A real windy day at Carlton back in the day, it used to howl towards the right point post. When that happens it is not to easy kick straight there, as the last half showed. Did well to hold on there for what it's worth.
Liked De Koning, Kennedy and Motlop.

With BigH and Charlie, I can't say I'm as confident of them 30m in front, as I am when they a 30m in a pocket.

Re: Practice Match: Blues v Pies, Fri 24 Feb - WASurfer - 02-24-2023
Acres will be a good player for us....disposal early on was sketchy but he runs hard.
Didn't get to see all of the game but Mirkov still looks a mile off. We're definitely better with both TDK and Pittonet playing.
Re: Practice Match: Blues v Pies, Fri 24 Feb - shawny - 02-24-2023
Was it just me or did anyone else notice cripps motion to the bench in the last few minutes and run/limped off. Also appear to limp in the after game chat with the pies boys.
Gosh i hope we dont hear anything about this
