He did some questionable things later, but....
Eddie Maguire spoke on triple m this morning about the lights at Ikon Park. He said they were terrible in our game, and terrible in his game. He said he spoke to a senior player who played in our game (didn't say which team) about the lights and unnamed player said it was very bad. A couple of times "players came out of nowhere" and you couldn't see the pick up the ball well enough to judge it sometimes.
Which senior player do you reckon Eddie Maguire just happened to have a chat too? My money is on Daisy as i'd doubt he'd have the number of many others...and truth be told, we don't even have many senior players on our list....nor the saints.
So....perhaps some of the silly things that Daisy and the others did on the night (and Curnofides springs to mind as well) were because players came out of the shadows and surprised them.
Either way, he suggested that the ground is unsafe for night footy, and at least partly that is because of the local residents, and something needs to be done because its a health and safety risk.
Might also explain Dow losing his teeth.
Why are you guessing so much tonight, have you a bad day?
Dow lost his teeth right on the boundary line in one of the brightest parts of the ground.
Perhaps the unsafe lighting complaint came from an Aints player making excuses, that just as if not more likely than to have come from any Carlton player, after all we all like to complain when we win! ;D
It could also be more Maguire bullsh1t!
Players were cleanly clunking 50m with the wind bullet passes!
btw., The AFL supply the extra match lighting! The media types have their back up now that the AFL have come out and said tough sh1t we ain't changing the lights.
