Haven't seen the game as I was out, not going to bother as 4.11 to 10.1 says it all. I did however see Cripps miss from what seemed like not much further out from the top of the goal square, this is why he will never make it as a mid/fwd, can't kick to save himself. I read someone else post that he tried to be the hero again by busting tackles instead of give it off. And then we complain he is banged up, it seems to be self inflicted.
But that's all ok, we probably "played our way" so its all good. Hand out the participation awards Teaguey.
I'm not one for Facebook footy pages but I was fwded this:
Imagine being a Carlton supporter.
Yeah sure, life has been tough in the past supporting teams like St. Kilda, Melbourne and Richmond, but I don't think anything could top the turmoil of cheering on the Navy Blues every week.
They've sacked a coach, recruited with an A+ mark, gone through the draft, yet they're about as hard as an after grog bog on a Sunday morning after a night on the rums.
Saad couldn't compose himself if Mozart was his mentor, Betts is two years past retirement, Williams is softer than a box of kittens, and McGovern couldn't get near a mark even if he was part of the Funky Bunch.
I sincerely hope Cripps goes to West Coast.
Leaving aside the somewhat hysterical overuse of metaphor and simile, that person isn't even a Blues supporter. It's like Kane Cornes trying to write something after failing English 101.
At any rate, I know we've been waiting a long while, and we're just going to have to wait some more.
