THIS ^^^^^^^^

I was already happy with the decision to trade for Cerra but what he showed tonight alone was better than I thought he was capable of. He is a serious footballer and much harder, stronger and more poised than I gave him credit for. His best is going to be extremely good and he seems to be relishing playing with this group.

Hewett will give you 25-30 quality disposals each week and is as tough as teak. He is a massive in.

Durdin was our best forward across 4 quarters. Really think he has a massive upside and he made a real a impact - 2 goals and 6 score involvements. We had 14-1 inside 50 tackles - that would have to be some sort of record for us.

For the first time in years, I didn’t get that sinking feeling when we gave up momentum. What was most remarkable was that q4 fight back. 7 unanswered goals against a quality side at that stage of the game is a real credit to the team around the team.

Gov was super down back. Saad was tenacious.
Our mids look like they’ve been together for years.
Pitto was solid. The baby giraffe is going to be a headache for the oppo when he takes the reigns (and grows into his body).
Our smalls stepped up when the heat was on.

I could go on….
Last thought.
Done it for Doc?

Would someone explain the 50m penalty that was awarded to Doc.
I couldn’t see Edwards move off the mark??

I thought it was against Lynch entering the area near the mark behind Edwards. His head dropped straight away after the 50 was awarded

Very good win without being a great win - Bluebaggers sure know how to make noise

That just might be the case. Wasn't the protected area increased to 10 metres either side of the mark. Lynch ran to the left of the mark to pick up a Carlton player running through to the right of the mark. If Lynch came within 10 metres from Docherty or the mark, then it would be a 50. If he'd been following within 2m of that opponent he would have been okay but that wasn't what he was doing.

It's possible, though, it was for the man on the mark doing a bit of a soft shoe shuffle. The feet do need to be stationary.

Lynch ran through the protected area and his opponent wasn't within cooee.  Fifty metres every time.

Can’t believe that last quarter ?

The crowd was heaving, I’ve watched the last quarter since getting home and it doesn’t even show a 10th of her noise Bluebaggers were making. Unbelievable.

Reminiscent of our prelim win against the Tigers all those years ago!!

I cried twice tonight. The first was Docherty’s goal. That moment transcends football. So moving to see when we all know what that bloke has been through. Sam is an inspiration.

Second moment was when I knew we had it in the bag. It was like a giant weight had been lifted. I feel like I can breathe again as a Carlton supporter.

Never been prouder of these boys!

Where the hell have you been?

Been a while.
