My cats supporting mates are now whinging about Touhy.... Runs into trouble, gets caught out of position, dumb kicks from fullback (the long bomb down the middle seems the default setting), gets outmarked too easily....yada yada.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

I do miss Tuohy, but I think there is zero chance of him doing a Betts or Robbo!
You just know he is going to give the odd highlight reel thing, the long goal on the run to win the game, etc, etc., the game saving tackle. But you also know he'll get pegged holding the ball, flopping like a tuna fresh out of the water!
I'll take Plowman and Marchbank intercept marking any day of the week ahead of those highlights, and those two are probably 2nd in line behind Weitering when it comes to interception ability and clever ball use.
We're seeing a glimpse of the future, and it's stunningly gold!

If Daisy Thomas does nothing more of note in a Carlton jumper, I'll always love him for his goal in the last term. Last quarter, against his old side, game on the line, in front of their feral Cheer Squad and on ther 125th Anniversary Celebrations.. Knife stuck firmly through their hearts... The ultimate insult to them, and a job well done!!

And the fact that he clearly enjoyed the moment so much!

I was really pleased for him and cheered the loudest I had all game... loved his celebration and the Candy.
All started from SPS, move through traffic and 45 metre bullet to the near side... so good.

Ive spent the last two years trying to tell you guys that he wants desperately to be one of us and it shows in his actions.
Hates Buckley with a passion.
Aside from the fact that he has chewed up more resources than he is worth, his attitude has been commendable.
Even after Malthouse was given his marching orders here, he has rolled the sleeves up, gone to work, and is playing for the jumper.

Thry,
No one, afaiaw, has ever questioned his work ethic, endeavour or even his commitment to our CFC.
The question remains (and my Pies' mates were succinct in this), given his body issues, ankle(s?) largely, can he train hard enough still to be competitive come game time in 2017?
Let's see if he can back up with a decent performance against the Sainters?

Glorious moment, only criticism I have is he should have given them the middle finger.
2012 HAPPENED!!!!!!!
