Re: Round 12: Carlton vs. Port Adelaide - Post match celebrations

Graham reminds me of Sam Mitchell. I think his career is panning out the same way as Mitchell who began his impact as a 21 year old after consistent efforts in the VFL. Cripps, Bell and Graham are the heir apparents to Judd, Murphy and Gibbs.

Cripps and Graham were obviously good but I thought Buckley was terrific as well. Turns out our kids aren't complete spuds after all. ^-^

re: Jaksch - I think he's too undersized for AFL and needs to bulk up significantly before he'll get a proper run. Really worries me as he's already been in the system for two years.

We knew he needed 6-10kgs when we got him. McKay said thast in an SEN interview over summer. Hence why, he said, he's 3rd tall in defence while he develops, then will be played key forward.

Odd to say after he just kicked 3 goals but his tackling, effort, defensive running and pressure is shocking. Wet paper towel would put up more resistance than his tackles. Body language is horrific. Was really shown up today because all of his teammates were so good.

Spot on. Boy he is really weak in some contests. The blokes like Everitt and White that looked okay in a shight side really stand out as poor players when the team is up and running.
Ignorance is bliss.

ONWARDS AND UPWARDS!

Agree.

Wonder if this gives a small insight into how Gibbs is perceived among his peers ?

He obviously wasn't looking at Gibbs last year.
Be that as it may, I was pleased in that tackle because we have been on the receiving end of that sort of thing in the past and not responded in kind. Yesterday we were tough and hard and Port didn't like it. They reacted in a very negative way, and I loved that. Let the miserable b*ggers over react. I want to see more of this brutal tackling, from Gibbs and all the others. If we get Everitt tackling like this, then I will be happy.
Live Long and Prosper!

Cassisi is a wanker!

I think that the effort other clubs put into trying to shut Gibbs down gives a better indication of how he's perceived.

If there is one thing that this game has taught me is that wins in Australia are the best.
