AFL Rd 19 2023 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs West Coast

I thought that Samo played well for the Eagles.  The crowd was quite kind to him, until his tackle on Cincotta.

He must be well-liked by his former teammates and spent a lot of time catching up after the siren.  Jack hobbled right across the ground to shake hands and have a chat.  Good to see but I couldn’t help thinking whether it was good for his knee.

Samo has turned it on against us this year. Nearly didn't recognise his longer kicks and intensity in the contest. Up until he was injured, and the unnecessary Cincotta tackle in respective games that is. No doubt being closer to his country is beneficial.

Had some dickheads near me yelling out at Samo all game about 20m kicks ? so you’re a fat bloke sitting in the stand and he’s playing on the ground and you think you have the right to pot shot him about his abilities?! Righto.

Samo always seemed a nice genuine quiet type of person. I hate that he was booed after the Cincotta tackle, samo is not a dirty player.

I took it as a bit of theatre after that tackle.

How good is Hollands on both sides of his body!!

As is Cincotta, Cunningham, and Martin. Gives them more time to make decisions and avoid getting buried in a tackle.

That wasn't a game, it was a shame.

Interesting to see Curnow playing out of the square in McKay's absence. Might be a good move long-term and have Harry go to CHF permanently.

How good was Hollands q3 left foot bullet  to Charlie for his 8th...

Highlight of the day.

I go to most Eagles games with my in law and I keep an eye on him and he’d be lucky to get a game some weeks. Maybe we broke him playing him at halfback but for the amount of talent he obviously has he is just lazy around the ground and doesn’t attack the contest hard enough unless he can make an easy tackle or possession.
He does seem to lift a bit playing us but he would playing reserves with us

Matches my observations....like a lot of Eagles' senior players ATM.  Doesn't go hard enough and a bit conditional with effort.  Gets possessions but they're like MacDonalds for dinner....it's called food but it's not nutritional.
