On days like these...some good threads are sometimes found on other sites ;D

Classic. Sounds exactly like CSC, with different names.

I'd hate to think what Stringer's salary is,  he certainly isn't earning it.  Lazy slob of a footballer.

Loved the glimpses from the kids today,  but the hard core on ball trio of K,  Crippa and Curnow senior were massive.

Why were the boys so upset at Bagauly at 3/4 time?

I watched the video snippet of that. No idea what started it, but looked like Bolts, who was walking nearby, says Fo .
We'll probably never know.

Ed is in trouble though... Incidental but he'll get a week. 

McKay has something most big blokes don't have - pace and mobility - and he looks a pretty reliable shot for goal.  No more two's footy for him .

Darcy Lang has never played in a losing Carlton side ;D

The win almost makes losing the first 7 rounds worth it, as it stings the Drug Cheats a whole lot more.

Just what we needed! A well crafted win imo.

Stringer is on 600K a season.......lacks interest and just wants cheap kicks/goals with not much effort...needs a strong coach like Clarkson
who can push him harder...

Big H didn’t disgrace himself as a backup ruckman and if we require 2 goals a game from a small forward then Darcy Lang did his job.

Well done blues. So annoyed I couldn't get to the game.

Seeing the effects of getting games into players. Like the look of two key forwards with 50 plus games each.  Bit of luck with injury and curnow and Mackay will play together for the rest of the season, and that is a forward line to build around

I thought our backline worked as well as I've seen. Daisy probably added the necessary experience and leadership. He's having a great patch that's for sure. I was critical of Daisy last year, but he's a different player this year. So I tilt my hat.

Kruez, Crippa, Ed, and Kerridge to a lesser extent, were consistent. The pressure from our smaller guys, although not flashy, was sustained and significant. Dow and O'Brein did well to stay in it for longer. Loved H confidence. Looks like he believes he belongs.
