Post Game Pandemonium: AFL rd 13: Carlton vs Gold Coast
Where is spanner?

Coaches couldn't agree on much, but they could agree who the best player was.

Marc Murphy - 10
Jack Martin - four
Sam Walsh - four
Patrick Cripps - three
Liam Jones - three
Harry McKay - two
Jacob Weitering - two
Michael Gibbons - one
Jack Newnes - one

As well as kids like
Philp
Honey

Add to that players who are out for the year....
Kreuzer
Curnow
Newman
Silvagni

.....and we are still winning!

When was the last time we had this problem that we had solid, in form players who could not get a game?

That says all you need to know about SOS's recruiting.

Coaches?  What would they know?  I had Setterfield in my best five  :Smile

With that possible exception, I think that they have pretty well captured the best players and how far ahead of the pack Murphy was.

I would've found room for Plowman in there somewhere

As RR remarked, Lachie is showing the form that his draft pick suggested.  His best has always been good but losing one on one contests close to goal detracted from his performances.

I don't get all this touchy feely stuff with players at the song, what's its about?
Probably should be dropped but the ex VFL battler is an important player now and with
finals on the line I think he will survive with a warning only.

But EB, what f-wit imbecile with not much upstairs must it take to do that only weeks after a furore and supposed educational classes to all clubs? Our players are special at times. I know they are just footballers not rocket scientists but FFS are they adults or children?
2017-16th
2018-Wooden Spoon
2019-16th
2020-dare to dream? 11th is better than last I suppose
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time

I didn’t notice anything at the time.  Has it been highlighted?

I thought that SOS’s ‘no d1ckheads’ policy and our emphasis on high standards was paying dividends. 

I can’t really comment without seeing the incident but, coming so close after the Richmond groping, it would seem to be inexcusable.
