In Game Assignations: AFL Rd 6: Carlton vs. Western Bulldogs

[kruddler]

Walsh's kicking is awful at the moment.

A lot of it is just grab and kick (usually high) but even when he looks he's often off.

He's probably never played a game in the wet!

[kruddler]

Good mark and goal from Gov.

Gets him another game next week.

Can't see us losing from here. We look on and the Dogs don't look like they have the answers.

[kruddler]

Dogs finally start playing wet weather football (play for territory) as the game starts to dry up.

We've started going for more marks (and taking them).

We've been one step ahead of the dogs in the way we have been playing all night.


We take a mark inside 50 to casboult.

Ump takes it off us for a hold against Harry just outside the contest. Another call from the umps that effect the scoreboard not in our favour.

[kruddler]

Dogs get a free....and an advantage....and an open forward line and somehow manage to overuse it and stuff up a gimme goal.

Something drastic needs to happen in the last 20 minutes of this game for us to lose it....even with Cripps playing with 1 arm.

[madbluboy]

We look tired.

[kruddler]

Ump gives a dubious deliberate which results in an inside 50 to the dogs. We hold up, again.

50-50 holding in the contest.....goes to the dogs.

Free kicks 16-9


and the non-free kicks are killing us.

[kruddler]

3/4 time.

17-9 free kicks for the dogs.

Umps try an even up in the last usually....

[madbluboy]

Cripps and Betts have been playing injured since the first quarter. Cripps is a liability when playing on Bont now, needs to go forward or get off the ground.

[LoveNavy]

3/4 time.

17-9 free kicks for the dogs.

Umps try an even up in the last usually....

My thoughts exactly. Such a phenomenal coincidences that ?
