We did a lot better than I expected and our winning margin was twice what I thought 
The effort that was missing against St Kilda and in the first half last week was certainly there from the first bounce. It just shows what we're capable of when we're switched on.
I like what I saw from Cuningham today. He didn't get a lot of the ball but he knows where it is, made good position and good decisions and affected the outcome of contests. I reckon he'll be a regular next season. As B4L suggested, we'll have 5 for 5 if McKay lives up to expectations.
Anyway, it was a good day at the footy, even if there were lots of Melbourne supporters in what is usually a Carlton members' area. They were a fairly inoffensive lot and one old bloke spent half the game twisted in his seat and trying to make conversation with the Blues supporters in my row.
