Casboult plays the 2nd ruck position/key forward combination so well. Gets his hands on the ball around the ground and it increases his confidence no end when he goes forward. Stood out for a numbers of years. Much better than when he's just simply a key forward and stuck with all the opposition defenders. It's something the club should take more note of. Don't need a true 2nd ruck. Does neither Kreuzer or Casboult any good.

All the Collingwood supporters walking from the ground don't agree "Daisy" was the difference

A neat win... Though I'm starting to get shades of 2004 about this season.

Everitt holds a few uncontested chest marks and we win by five or six.

What a win!!!!!

My brother has come to visit me in London and we buggered off for a boys weekend in Dublin......... We ended up getting home from the pub just in time to watch the game (4:45am)

It's 7:30am here and I'm celebrating with another pint!!! Well done boys. 3 in a row.
It just feels so good to win again.

My bro is also a Leicester City fan and he just got a ticket to today's game........ He is indeed a happy MoFo right now.

Simmo can play until he flower well doesn't want to play any longer.

Now leave him the @#$%&! alone.

Gun, and an absolute inspiration. Should have been captain 3 years ago and should be now.

All of you dissenters.....@#$%&! off!!!

Thought that too - but there are more ways to trade into the draft these days.


I'd hate for us to get another Russell and Hartlett for a rebuild

Everitt is one of the valuable players you need that will always frustrate. Types where positives outweigh the negatives by a fair way but they still make you tear your hair out. Alot of sides have them. 20 touches, marks, 3.1, asbolutely terrific but the patch in the last qtr make you scream.

2004 was bigger body cast-offs, this is an up and coming side.

In 2004 Carlton didn't have a recently drafted group of KP forwards.

We actually look like a team!

An elite forward and just give us the cup!

Who'd a thought we'd win three on the trot. Just so refreshing to see us working as a team each week and haven't been this good defensively for ages.

Been calling for Levi's head all season but gotta say he was super today. He does have the best hands going around. Cripps is a genuine freak....so happy to have this guy :thumbsup:

And you gotta take your hat off to Gibbs and Rowe. Another two that have been in the gun for a while.

Lamb and Sumner great gets. And that Bolton guy goes ok :clap: :clap:

Our defensive pressure around the stoppages and also defending exits from our forward 50 is top notch, honestly almost as good as anyone. Main reason why we have won 3, it's not really talent, it's structure.
Those referring to 2004, culture has to be one of winning, our drafting just needs to be better.
