Rd 8: Post Game Euphoria!: Carlton vs Port Adelaide

[townsendcalling]

There are wins and there are team bonding, defining wins.  We saw the latter today.

He's alright for a third tall

Correct, but when the Bolt left, it was up to him to become the physical presence and I thought he did it well.

The effort from Murphy in the last few minutes was incredible. Just willed himself at it with repeat efforts.
Awesome work from Rowe around the ground. Held his own in the ruck and got in great positions when needed.
Plowman got crunched at one stage (will be pi$$ing blood this week),  but kept going.
Gibbs was great both offensively and defensively.
Love watching Lamb get stuck into the opposition.

Unfortunately I think Jamo is just about done. Doesn't look like he has any confidence in his body.

Jaksch should come in now but rather than replace Jammo he'll more likely to replace Rowe as the latter is needed to replace Casboult.

Isn't Weitering due back next week?

Probably, but now we don't have a first or second tall.
I hope he steps up, this chance could be the making of him.
The more I see of Sumner the more I like him, he's hard at it and the pressure goal he kicked showed he's got a bit of bottle.
Less than 20 games, there's plenty of upside.

The Boult. No ACL. Hairline fracture. 6-8 weeks.

I hope so, Jamo's shot.

Awesome news for Casboult, according to Carlton, it's a hairline fracture of the tibia. Heavy bruising, 6-8 weeks! ACL all ok

That sux - but I guess it could have been worse.
