AFL Rd 7 2022 Post Game Permutations Carlton vs North Melbourne

[LoveNavy]

Jack calling it as he sees it, and he’s a pretty astute judge.

More astute than whoever was responsible for Horne-Francis getting a rising star nomination.  His cheap shot should have disqualified him, and then there’s the fact that Carroll’s performance was far superior.

I’m being petty now. HF disposal stats are misleading. I saw 3 of his kicks get smothered. Def 50% ?

Justice prevailed. It was a unique situation where, as was successfully argued, Zurhaar contributed in no smaller manner to the impact and Young slowed up and braced for impact. Well argued and presented BlueBaggers.

Both the appeal and the outcome are atypical of old Carlton. All the small changes will eventually turn the big ship.

There is only about 720 AFL listed players each and every year.  Despite what we all think, they are all mates and get along fairly well.

Bet you Jack and Horne-Francis are having a laugh on twitter or something.

They were having a chat after the game and all seemed well.

Just a rubbish club that is a drain on the AFL, Elliott should have bought them out and closed them down when he had the chance.

It wasn't a closed down deal, it was a merger...Carlton kangaroos.
Was all set to go ahead at the end of the year.
1 problem though, that year was 1999 and Carlton played Kangaroos in the grand final that year and nobody would've agreed to the deal.

Make no mistake, there was no "merger", it was take over, poach the best players and shut the old entity down. It was going to be called the Carlton Football Club, wearing navy blue with a white CFC on the front.

Not according to Horne-Francis; “We shook hands. We didn’t say much, but we shook hands.”

Jack probably reprised his “You’re a p1ss-weak player in a rubbish team” comment (I’m paraphrasing).

I believe the cfc was being replaced by the kangaroo, but otherwise accurate.
It wasnseen that way because we had the money and they didn't, but make no mistake, 'the blues' would cease to exist.

There were two separate episodes.

In 1991, we secured shares in North Melbourne with a view to a hostile takeover.

In 1999, Ron Casey approached Pig’s Ask about a merger of the two clubs.
