Post Game Passion: AFL 2019 Rd 17: Carlton vs. Sydney

[flyboy77]

On the much overhyped Blakey:

9 disposals, 0 tackles, 0.3 (3 behinds) - 36 Fantasy points.

Walsh

28 disposals, 3 tackles, 1.1 goals.

100 Fantasy points.

Worlds apart.

I always want us to say something about the seemingly one sided umpiring - Cats definitely have their players trained up to question everything and complain incessantly and I can't help but think that that sways the umpiring - Sydney are doing it too.

That one he, or you for that matter, won't forget for a long time.

Oh for sure.
Never thought I'd be in such as position.
The club deserves kudos for giving a bunch of kids (and their dads/mums) a great game day experience.
It may have cemented his loyalties too. He has been running around the house ever since commentating himself as all of the Carlton boys. We had to go down the park this morning for a kick around. We alternated between Cripps, Levi and "big H"

Agree Dow will get there - not this year though.

LOB - hmmm. Far from convinced! But they're very young, granted.

Watched LOB a few times yesterday when coming out of defence on our side of the ground. He has a lot of poise and is a great field kick as well.
I think he has come along leaps and bounds in the last 6-8 weeks.

A "great field kick"?

ROFL.

(thus far anyway)

Is Sav still there. He just seemed to rush every time...

Yes i believe he is still there. At least he was when i went to the family day early in the year. Asked him about Levi's kicking and he said he was doing ok. However i have not sen him on the bench lately. He was always there as part of the coaching group.

[blueboys_1]

Just looking at Levi's last qtr goal. Come off the boot very well, then the wind blew it one way towards the behinds, the it blew back the other way to go thxrough. Must've been windy as all f.

Na just reverse swing. I was willing it the other way as i was watching it. It worked.

Wonder if Gatting was watching?

Has he recovered from the ball of the century yet?  Had to laugh when a commentator said that he looked like someone had stolen his lunch after that ball.
