We wont get away with every week and we probably got lucky Ryder was out who is a more skilled palmer of the ball. Hats off to Jack though who battled on well all night and was a real competitor..Point is, we virtually played without a ruckman but they divised a plan to combat it and they executed. 22 players went out and contributed irrespective of injuries.

Watched the whole game post Q1 and I just didn't see Steele as a factor?
Tom Mitchellesque?

Re: Honey...tend to agree with Jezza on this one and I know ProfE is a fan as well, showed why he deserved more games tonight.
Creative to help others, strong body and can find the goals, been surprised he hasnt played more, maybe needs to learn more about the defensive aspects of the game but the seniors is where this kid will develop quicker. Like Stocker he looks the part out there and both play a good hard brand that I like.
Re: Murphy...yep doesnt deserve a game based on his form IMO and I'd prefer to see Carroll or Ramsay in but I get why he is being
played and carried through to the 300 as its a rare feat that should be celebrated in what has been an ordinary season..

It is easy to see both sides of whether he should or shouldn't be selected but I was embarrassed for him tonight - unable to seriously contribute and, despite being fresher than the opposition, he couldn't get out of his own way let alone doing anything against an opponent.

Putting on record now. Samo is SMART with the ball. We just could not use him as such.
Don't shoot the messenger ... it was on the C7 broadcast

Re: Post Game Passion; AFL Rd 20: Carlton vs St Kilda - RiverRat - 07-30-2021
Apart from having a forward line - the main difference between this week (and all of our poor games or parts of games) is that the players made a concerted effort to run with intensity to pressure opponents with the ball and to pressure opponents in a position to receive a hand pass - instead of trying to corral an opponent without pressuring him or cruising along and hoping the opponent trips over his boot laces (e.g. SPS).
When the game seemed out of their reach (part way into the last term) we relaxed (maybe relapsed would be more accurate) or fatigued into a lesser intensity and the 'Aints started to deliver the ball with ease just like the Kangas did last week - most decent AFL footballers can kick to advantage if you allow them to run free.

Probably the first time I can recall LOB making a good contribution - excellent ball use (which was the story when he was drafted) but also put serious effort into restricting his opponent.
Ditto Paddy Dow, who has discovered (or possibly rediscovered) how to deliver the ball by foot and is not getting caught with the ball like he used to - it seems that he now has the strength to break tackles and keep his feet to pass the ball by hand despite being tackled.
Maybe they both just needed to develop more slowly than your average first round draft picks.
