Re: AFL Rd 1 2023 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs Richmond - shawny - 03-16-2023
Fisher is a disappointing footballer imo. 6 touches in first quarter and then 1 more for the next 3.
Did not touch the footy after half time. Nothing.
Martin is even worse imo. The bloke jogs around at half pace and shows no desire to get out of first gear.
Both of these guys are teasers.
If we are going to make the leap up we can’t accept consistent below par performances regardless of their potential or highlight reel cameos they pull out every now and then.
Prefer to see blokes like kemp honey given more chances.

You must have watched a different game!
We should have killed the ball that Lynch marked but, until then, we had control of the game. Similarly, Motlop’s handball was the right choice in most circumstances but not this time … but how many games has he played?
One minute to go
in clear possession with a mark
in front
Lost
Maybe not panic……but

Steven may be working for another club but that's insensitive behaviour at best.
I think that Rita's comment about it being sad that Sergio wasn't there to see Jack's 100th game was spot on. He would have been so proud of his grandson.
Typical or sos. Always been about him.
Massive ego.
Rapt he is no longer in our club in any capacity.

Once again it was the same old Carlton forward line plan.
When approaching the 50m arc just kick it long to a contest! Job done. (Don't go and find your player to be ready to defend)
Why is it Carlton's modus operandi is to never kick to a leading forward? Oh wait! Because our forwards don't work hard enough to get on a lead.
It's not good footy!
Other clubs do it and do it well.
We are still getting cut up when a turnover happens. Richmond are a well drilled team and set up well.
Harry the Heartbreaker, zero awareness, zero brains, zero practicing over the break, zero improvement. Nothing has changed.
Yes he may be getting the ball the further up the ground but he just turns and kicks without THINKING.
His goal kicking is atrocious. Go back to U16s if you want to kick like that.
Both teams could've and should've won it but both teams lost it.
Another year of pain.
Great goal by Doc.

100% shawno. No free games on reputation. No passengers. If we want to go to the next level we can't keep going back to that well.

Heard on the ABC that he was in the car in the car park and may not of being allowed in.
Jack may of being pissed at the club and not hi dad.
Some clubs are pretty tight on who they let in to the dressing room, which is a shame seeing it was such a big milestone.

Great to see Dusty penalized for several unsuccessful fend-offs - even better to see so many unsuccessful fend-offs.
I was fuming at several poor decisions at the time but, on reflection, the umpires were consistent and deserve acknowledgment for a well adjudicated game.
They did miss Dusty’s first fend off which was probably more blatantly holding the ball.

You can't accept that type of output - I hope we finally go hard at the selection table. Carroll and Honey are younger with more upside.

If Saad wasn't playing we would have lost by 5 goals, it's a shame we can't afford to release him more.

How many push in the backs when going for a mark were not called? (At least they were consistent)
A lot of double action push outs in the rucks were missed.
What does a Carlton forward need to do to get a free?
That Saad call for chopping the hands was a bad call replays showed he only hit the ball when he spoiled. Bad call.
