In Game Anxiety: AFL 2021 Rd 12: Carlton vs. West Coast

[laj]

Carlton, happy to be very competitive, not the drive or want to take the next step.

West Coast injury list - 9
Carlton injury list - 9*

*included Plowman suspended.

Ha ha ha ha.  And I guess you will argue our 9 are as talented as their 9?  We are sh1te mate.
Accept it.

We are playing very, very badly and yet there is only 8 points in it. I'm hoping that we actually play 2 good quarters because the opposition isn't much and that will be enough for us to win. At the moment though we are very uninspiring.
Newman good.
TDK doing well.
Williams playing OK.
Weitering spanking Darling (as he should)
I think Dow has done OK.
So cameos from blokes but generally very poor.
Cripps looks like he disinterested.

Williams has been terrible for mine, as has been Cottrell, Murphy, Martin and to a lesser extent Cripps and Jones. Agree with the rest.
Has Ed C been on and off the bench? I cant make out on TV who he is playing on or if he has been on much.

I'm pretty sure Ed is playing on Cripps??

It wasn't great, but we are certainly still in this game.

When was the last time we went in against a top 8 team, without a CHF, lost our FF in the 1st 15 minutes, missed more shots than we kicked, played largely average football for the first half....and were still with 8 points at half time.

2 years ago, we'd be 6-10 goals down by now.

This game is far from over.

Yes Krud but we can all see where its heading.

Thanks, I wonder if he is better served going shoulder to shoulder with Gaff. Or can Newnes do a job.

[shawny]

You don't like him, we get it.

But you're embarrassing yourself with your last line.

He’s a dud. Has no clue at all. Twice he marked close to goal and the dud doesn’t even consider giving it off to a bloke called Eddie Betts or fisher or owies nah stuff that the big dud calmly goes back and sprays both of them. Then laughs as he runs off.  Yeah but let’s look at his stats!!!!

I think Laj commented that the Saints/ Swans game was good to watch,  yet the Swans forum wasn't so complementary.  Objectively,  we've been ok.  Subjectively maybe not.  Taking the patch off isn't easy (nor is removing bias against particular players so it seems).

Premiership quarter coming up Jim.

WHy do you follow the club if you clearly don't get anything out of it? F*** off somewhere else.

I'm just pointing out that the poor injury hit eagles just happen to have the same amount of injuries as us.

Not really like for like, but all of our blokes would be there or thereabouts in our best 22 depending on who is available.

Kelly - Curnow
McGovern - McGovern
Duggan - Gibbons
Shuey - Cuningham
Witherden - Plowman
Venables - Marchbank
Allen - McDonald

They've got a few more top end talent, ours is more consistent and deeper
