Seriously Menzel was a highly skilled youngster with great foot skills.

What do we do when we draft them at Carlton?

Tell them to leave any semblance of skill at the door before we issue them with a jumper.

Flower me flowering drunk. :roll:

Geelong have a potential 200 score on the cards tonight.

Tell why we have so many rapps on Menzel
He can't kick

Goes alot better when he rucks alot. Playing permanently as a key forward at Carlton right now is the equivalent of being in Death Valley. If we get it right and sub Warnock at half time then he should pick up.

Did kick 4 against the Hawks last year. As good as opposition as you get.

Ahead or a head?

Both make sense.

Army's bad kick into the centre started it. Great tryer but that kills ya.

Kept Motlop to one kick and one HB for the half.
I'd say he's ahead on the ledger for the night so far.

Armfield isn't supposed t be the one who wins us games. How has Gibbs been? He's had a few quality possies but not enough. Murphy seven possessions I heard half way through the quarter s maybe ten for the half.

Simpson will retire from this team an unfulfilled star and servant of the club. i'd love for him to go to Hawthorn for a year and win a flag. He deserves more than he gets from Carlton. He gives so much and gets bugger all in return.

He put a fair bit of effort into that lead, but our blokes are notoriously bad backing up hard leads with good kicks. They don't put themselves under enough pressure at training, and neither do the coaches.

What a great kick by ben graham. Turnover from a kick in was his greatest achievement.

Half decent coach and confident players, we'd be 5 goals up.

Since Malthouse has come along, taking the first option is out the window. How many holding the ball calls do we get against us when our player has ignored the first, and often the second option?

Is my bet of 40 or over at risk? I'm slightly nervous we may show some semblance of fight and lose by 33

It's all labout how it comes in. I haven't been counting but I am guessing they have had between 10-15 uncontested marks inside 50 and we have had one.

Lingy, bending at the knees is still ducking as you are deliberately lowering yourself to get a free kick.

Dirty Dancing on #408 Romance on Foxtel is looking pretty good right about now.
