After the game i was thinking the same that BB complains about the umpiring and cop the fine.
Didn't Sheedy do this type of thing?
Time we pushed back instead of complying all the time.

This is a post from an earlier game.this year.
Mmmm common theme i think  :o

Can't understand the knockers - q1 aside. That was an inexcusable brain fade.

IMO: Our seniors stood up. Kruez, Gibbs, Ed, Murphy, Ed, and ASOS were solid. Our younger crew in Docherty and Crippa were effective. Both getting goals made for a much needed spread of goalkickers. Wright was quiet again as was Sumner. Sumner needs a couple in a row to recalibrate.

We fought back from a 45pt deficit.....
We kicked with accuracy and almost topped the tonne....
When it was needed, we just took the game on.....
These efforts alone are signs of progress.

Of the baby blues, I thought Zac, SOJ,  Marchbank, and Samo soldiered on and will benefit from the bye. SOJ was at his best when with ball in hand, he gave Zeibell no less, the don't argue push. These are kids who will gain more than they can give at this early stage. But that's the name of the game ATM.

DC was great in his 2nd game for the year, particularly when he took the game on. He looked unpredictable and dangerous. Plowman had a better game. Charlie, well he was fantastic. Out marked some very talented senior's.

In all, a great 3q effort to be proud of and a 1q to forget!
This buy-a-flag mob flogged us by 67 and 64 in our last encounters. We went in without one of our most important KPP's, and most experienced seniors. We replaced them with kids who have a handful of games between them. They should have given us a bath, like they did the Crows  :Smile.
But our spirited youngsters were ably led by our seniors to give them a scare. That's a win in my book....

Hope they have a restful bye, tidy up the 1q brain fades, and bring on the competition in the 2nd half of the season.

I dont want to shoot bambi but compared to last year, Weiters has been well below par. Dunno that he will be sent to the 2s to get some form but he probably needs it. As I said in the in game thread, that swingman rubbish can GAGF.

Great effort to come back, but man Weitering has massive issues right now. I am hoping he is carrying some which if so why the fudge are we playing him and if not and he is just in bad form then he has regressed badly from last year. Maybe being thrown around has unsettled him and cant get rhythm.

Wasn't his sort of game.

Also wasn't Sumners, SPS or Fishers.

I reckon they'll reset and see he they go in the games after the bye.

On form I'd have dropped SPS but its development, not wins.

I dont rate North and also reckon this is a game we could have won, they are a lazy front running team who were lucky we are in a rebuild cycle and
not able to play 4 quarters of tough footy yet..
By the way...good to see you back posting Mants and hope you are keeping well....

They are very strong over the football by jeez they are slow.


Re: Rd 10: Post Game Prattle: Carlton vs North Melbourne - Professer E - 05-28-2017

Against any side that is fast or spreads well we get cut to pieces... but if the other mob is slow I always give us a chance.  That's why we take the pace out of games, or at least attempt to.

Morale of the story - we need to get faster and improve our spread.

Yep, our slow start cost us big time.

Hey Mants, great to hear from you, hope all is well.
