Terrific game. The second quarter was off the charts. Sydney were always going to come. I thought the team held tough when it mattered.
Obviously the stars shone
Curnow
Walsh
Weitering
all brilliant
Hewitt has been a fantastic addition
I like the use of Cripps in the ruck
Kennedy has become a very solid mid
Fisher has more edge it his game as a floating forward
Young a terrific swap for SPS
DeKoning’s best game. Won a lot of tap outs

The most pleasing aspect of the win was the contribution of the lesser lights
O’ Brien’s second half
Owies was impressive . Always liked his aggression
Durdin impressed again
Motlop looks like player with footy smarts. I would keep him in instead of Martin
Cottrell was terrific early and late.
Carroll was quiet but is good at what he does.
Both Cottrell and Carroll are better options than Setterfield.

I been banging on that the best bottom 6 players get you over the line in big games
That’s what happened last night
O,Riordan, Bell,Ladhams, Wicks, struggled

Hats off to the team.
Turn up next week with the light switch on and we should beat Collingwood



Satisfied customer. Should have him stuffed :grin:

Are you level 1 right smack bang in the centre?

There's a group of 4 mates/brothers who've been behaving like animals all season.

When I saw the stats at half time I just knew the green would tilt their way. Human nature.

BUT … the decision which precipitated the swing was Heeney turning to face Cripps and simply pushing him backwards. Crippa grabbed him to stop himself falling backwards. They got a goal and the momentum swung, albeit subtley.

Pet hate of mine - if a backman takes his eyes off the ball for a split second he gets pinged for contact. How are taggers allowed to turn their back on the ball and focus solely on play makers like Cripps and get away with it?

Been bugging me all year that they are getting frees still.

Yeah, sure, it's all about you as usual. :lol:
Let's just forget the 90% of your recent posts.

How about this gem from 8 days ago?

We rank 8 th in that area which is a more true indicator of where you are at relative to the 17 other teams.
Yet what you read from posters is where
Top 4
Top 4…..
We are a fair way off it.


Or this one from 4 weeks ago...

That folks is where we are at
We have so many overpaid overrated players
Not much has changed from last year


Or this when we were 4-1

Quote:

As for our supporters cheering the team off yeah I get it
We are 4 and 1.
When’s the last time that happened.
But clearly they have no idea if they think we are much better in 2022.


Or this when we were 3-1

Quote:
Welcome to Carlton

Of course if your dumb you would think we were back


So yeah, what you've been "banging on about" is 99% negative garbage. So don't come on here attempting to claim any credit or credibility. You've been taking great pleasure in kicking the shit out of the team for years. The club is 8-2.
And that has @#$%&! all to do with what you've been "banging on about".

But just for some balance
There are 12 games to go. Anything can happen. The last 2 weeks have been significant particularly Friday night.
And you know what. If we continue to get better I’m more than happy to say I got it wrong.
Unlike you I can admit to getting it wrong although I might be wrong there too.

Interesting we won with no
Martin
McGovern
Williams
Setterfield
Tell me mate what does that say about overpaid players and the importance of recruiting.
Things have improved partly to SOS sticking the pacifier in and ducking off and Austin coming in
Young
Carroll
Durdin
Can’t imagine SOS finding those gems
Can you
I have been on this site for 16 years bagging this clubs obvious shortcomings and got it right given how shit we have been
Happy to get “some” things wrong.

There's a group of 4 mates/brothers who've been behaving like animals all season.
We had reserved seats on level 3.
Appeared to be a granddad, his two sons and his grandson with the granddad being the worst offender.
Several people reported him via that SMS thing.

And I loved Friday night too mate.
Footy conjures up many emotions.
And we all get some things wrong footy or otherwise

As I said it takes to around this time to sort the wheat from the chaff.
After yesterday’s games I think only the Dogs are the only team outside the eight that can get in
GC are significant improvers but are still not there
11 wins got Essendon* into 8 th spot
Reckon 12 or even 13 get you in this year
But % is often a better indicator of where you are at.
So most likely 4 wins out of 12 remaining and we play finals.
Still heaps to play out
The North and Crows wins were just ok.
The last 2 wins have seen the team take significant steps

But one thing we would agree on?
Drop the intensity 5 % and you play anyone who is totally switched on and your in deep shit
Look at North and Melbourne yesterday for the 2 3 Rds of that game

I haven’t been this happy watching a game of footy for a while as I was on Friday night
But things can change quickly
A man of your vast intelligence can see that surely
Don’t go the early crow too early
Our % is the worst in the 8
But we have definitely improved this year

Sure mate, I like what Austin is doing but bagging SOS is a bit silly seeing as though 14 of the 23 in the squad Friday night were players he recruited.
Shit can Williams, Martin and even McGovern all you like but they would add to our team and be best 22 as well when/if their bodies are right.
H was also recruited by SOS just for the record.

I have read some of your other garbage that said we needed to start again & it appears to me you have been refusing to acknowledge how long it takes to build a list from scratch which is what the club embarked on at the end of 2015. From Friday nights team, only Cripps and Docherty were on the list at the end of 2015. For perspective, Sydney had 6 players that were on the list in 2015 and I would describe them as core senior players (Rampe, Lloyd, Heeney, Kennedy, Parker and Franklin). We never had the luxury of building around a core because SOS's predecessors completely butchered things.

There are sure to be speed bumps this season and probably even next but @#$%&! me BLIND FREDDY can see we are building something pretty good here.
Instead of pretending to "add balance" try supporting and enjoying the ride - I think it's going to be a bloody good one.

I haven't said we'll finish top 4 at any stage. I said a top 8 finish will be a good outcome. That hasn't changed.
But to suggest we haven't improved from last year as you have on a couple of occasions this season?
That's was just nonsense. So when you come on here and try to take credit for our improvement based on your bottom 6 logic, I thought I'd remind you of the tone of the other 99% of your posts.

FWIW, I doubt we'll finish top 4 and I have no doubt we'll lose some games we could have won. But no one is saying we're the finished product. But we have a young, hard and physical team playing footy to be proud of.

It’s interesting when I read some of this stuff .
I’m the first to say that the club needs stability off the field.
Do you agree with that.
You can’t have stability when you sack the last 7 coaches before their contracts are up right or wrong choice
Not to mention cronies at the top.
Handing out jobs for the boys. And on Silvangi.
You make multitude decisions with trades and picks
You get some right
Some wrong
But he held us back no doubt
Rather than look at the garbage I have written find the post with all the players he recruited that I listed
Fasolo…
That’s a start
His best effort was his first draft
He had an eye for key position talent
But midfielders
Nah
Except the obvious like Walsh
McGovern has been a disaster
Setterfield likewise

People like Patty Kinnersley and Brian Cook are the people needed at the top.
Get that right and everything flows like crystal running water

Have the wrong people at the top like Sticks and all that flows downstream is shit

When Luke Sayers was interested in Ross Lyon I thought we are still ducked
Here we go again

But finally some sanity and logic finally after 2 decades prevailed

Lyon is outdated and clearly doesn’t respect people particularly from the opposite gender.
Check out one of our VP’s jobs.
She obviously didn’t want him

If you pour through all the garbage I have written through the years the underlying theme has been who runs the club at the top.
It’s not Luke Sayers
It might be by name but he was well and truly put in his box when it came to appointing Lyon by the board he runs.
And that my friend was the start of things turning around

Unless we fall off the cliff we should play finals
I was skeptical
Particularly in relation to the Hawks and Port games
Thanks to Weiters in the dying stages in both games we got 8 points there
The improvement of guys like O’Brien and the injection of Durdin etc has been pivotal
Confidence has grown
It’s great
But it’s big pic stuff my friend
It all starts at the very top

Agree on this too.
When things go south which will probably happen don’t sack the coach

I responded, you didn't read it. I'm not repeating. Friday night pretty much summed up my thoughts anyway.

How about the win!!!
... and style we play, and game plan... its the same as what we saw and confirms what most of us thought in round 1.

The only difference between our rounds 1 & 10 games is in round 1 we thought the system, personnel and roles looked like Finals footy by a Finals team, in a Finals like atmosphere at the G, but we wondered if what we saw in preseason and this game was the new Carlton and a true Renaissance whereas after round 10 we know we are the real deal.

I agree with some of Keoghs hypotheticals regarding SOS, but disagree with most of his arguments because I find most of his revisionist argument is made up stuff.

Was Lyon offered the Head Coach Role by Sayers? Or
Was Lyon invited to apply for the Head Coach role by Sayers?
Big difference...and you assumption is wrong Keogh. You have to keep up with the news as it's released for public consumption, because it's more credible than made up stories.

Lyon expected the job without due process, presenting his case, when the details about the former female employee at Freo reared its head again, Lyon pulled out of the RACE. Good for Sayers. Good for us.

Your facts are not correct about Sayers Keogh, and like most of the points you assume the problem I have is you present as fact.

You are so out of mischievous.

Show some respect to yourself by showing some respect for the truth, for Kernahan (taking on a job no one wanted when Collins was about to hand over the keys), towards fellow posters here at TC who present facts we learn and share which we all appreciate and consider, for SOS' enormous challenge to balance the books and managing the salary cap (teaching the club how to manage the cap) and the week in week out efforts of the team for games they won games this year instead of belittling at every opportunity.

I feel you're coming around. Sayers got Cook, not the other way around.

Beautiful day at Princes Park. Dow looking good. Setters running with a bit more desperation, Boyd amazing....and Marchbank moves sooooo good.

I'm loving being in the sunshine city, Melbourne.

We will play Finals this year. Only thing to change moving forward is our boys will get fitter, stronger and match hardened by the time Finals come AND we will get back 6 or 7 key players who will improve us further...and Vossy lays some more layers to compete against the Dees.

We won with our youngest team this year.
We won with 9 under 22 players.
We won without Pittonet, Marchbank, McGovern, Martin, Williams....possibly Cuningham, Dow and Honey.

We are 3 games ahead of teams outside the 8 half way mark. That's great, and the jobs not done, but I don't think there's any signs of complacency from Coach and players. They just want it IMPROVE.

Give us The Cup.
