AFL Rd 22 2022 Post Game Postulations Carlton vs Melbourne

[PaulP]

Charlie's off the boil.
But he's just as likely to a kick a bag next week.
That's the kind of player he is...
Can't wait for his 'complete' game.
I still don't think we've seen it, but we know he's capable of it

I can't find the latest figures, but as of the 8th August, Charlie was leading the Coleman. So for most of the season he was on fire. But lately everything seems a little off - his leaps, his running patterns, positioning, body work. kicking for goal. He looks very ineffectual compared to the earlier games IMO.

Sleeping on it still didn’t make it better.

Shattered by that result.

I hear ya Mick

Let's face it, we got away with a few close games early in the season. It was only a matter of time before we lost one.

Short memory.

Collingwood game last time around

And this time last year, we had just completed our review...
We were still going through the Ross Lyon stuff up.
We still hadn't signed Voss, Cook etc
We still didn't know if the playing list had what it takes.
We were still scratching our heads as to what this club had become.

Know the feeling, actually had a hard time sleeping!

Gutted, a popular and accurate feeling expressed by many of us BlueBaggers.

A tremendous effort under finals like pressure. And a painful lesson learned re the final 2 minutes. But so many players will have learned so much from that experience, indeed what is required for 120 minutes to get to the top of the tree. Invaluable.

Jekyll and Hyde stuff. What we witnessed from a very undermanned side last night was a team, commitment/discipline/attitude/persistence/dare/talent wise, that can match it with the best. A far cry from the previous few weeks.

As a critic of Setterfield, credit given where due... he lifted and was an important cog. Did his job well.

Overall? Naches, as our Jewish friends might say. Along with gutted!

Now to bring that, and more, next Sunday arvo.

It was great to see, in the middle of the match, Stocker getting a run in the middle...

Well done, young man!!

It's been a roller coaster ride since then. In less than a year I  suspect we have the answers to many key questions.

As exhilarated and as devastated as I am right now, it will come down to this. The final roll of the dice against the old enemy. Win and we're where we deserve to be. Having a taste for finals. Although last night was a sampler.

Go Blues

Charlie has come up against the Geel, Melb and Bris defences, 3 of the best in the comp. Next week will also be a challenge.

Fisher has seriously improved his kicking with the non-preferred foot - so there might still be hope for a few of his teammates.
