Round 17 Carlton vs Hawthorn Game Commentary

[PassIt2Carrots]

Meanwhile I've not seen Yaz live for a while but if he's not screwing everything he does up on purpose, I'll be absolutely shocked. There is no other explanation - watch him, he intentionally is doing the eff ups on purpose!

He's doing a Nick Kyrgios! ;D

I reckon we should be getting beaten by about 30 points.

Yes, they are better. But every single mutha fucking free has gone in their favour.

They will win the flag chaps, make no mistake. The AFL has already determined it.

My thoughts exactly - they are in a holding pattern, and have nothing to lose. Nobody is expecting anything of them, so why not just go for it ?

Before the game started they interviewed Whiley - the coach Whiley - he said they were anxious about playing Hawthorn.

What the Actual F uck! What has happened to fake it til you make it?!

I was watching football and have been involved in football at the Club while you were still a spermatozoa in your fathers scrotum, you Richard Cranium.
Obviously still doesn't make you an expert NIC

If only we had some forwards.... And some system to get it there.

Boeky has shown a little I reckon, still look horribly panicky under pressure and and too light but finds neat options at times.

Gees we have some passengers and spuds, still need to cut this list hard.

MickyO, I said exactly the same thing last week at the Freo game. Watched him all night and I said to the people next to me "he's on the take".

It's a terrible accusation, but some of his fuck-ups (when your saw them live) were just suspect.

He improved after half time last week when it looked like Freo had control.

We are so inexperienced but FMD how the screw do they get 21-9 free kicks? Seriously?! No I am being quite serious - the CFC needs to stand up ffs and ask for at least a level playing field.

Not to mention;
- the tunnelling in the marking contest
- the 6 meter kicks that are paid marks
- the cribbing the mark
- the non-holding the balls
- the sniping off the ball

That dont get paid against hawthorn.  They play unsociable football, yet that's the free count????

Even if the frees were 50-0 in our favour, the scoreline would hardly read any differently. Whatever we showed in the Port game, seems almost like a dream.

Judd carried us for years and now that he's gone our weaknesses are badly exposed.
Apart from Murphy we have a pedestrian midfield which lacks pace, we have no forwards at all tall or small, we have no outside runners with pace and skill and our one decent key defender is approaching the end and his best days are past.
Of our young players only Cripps looks certain to develop into a 200 game player, Holman and Buckley look likely but they could just as easily go the other way, we have no young key position players and no young ruckman.
It's going to take years and if we take anything from tonight it should be just how much work we have in front of us to match it with the best, let alone beat them.
Umpires are irrelevant to good teams by the way.
