Seriously, if he doesn't win the Rising Star award, there's something wrong.

The Ox is already leading the charge to have Hogan win it.
I dont know if anyone heard him on radio last week but it made my blood boil.

I went to the game, I hate losing to them but cant be too disappointed with the effort.
Our skill level is poor and probably cost us 4-5 goals.
Murphy was fantastic, Cripps is a star already.
Good games by Kreuzer, Everitt and Simpson.
The booing of Murphy was pretty poor.

Murphy got a couple of soft frees so they booed him from that point. Seemed to fire him up.

Yes, that was when the booing started. He got a free for in the back and the crowd thought it should have been holding the ball.

Is it cos I is black?

When you get the ball over 20 times in a game and dispose at 100% efficiency with no support, it is elite. He is in the top 3 for his position in the comp.

In the 80's & 90's it was like Hillsborough trying to get into the ground at 12.30pm for CAR V COL.

Things are in a downward spiral, and that's a fact the AFL can't deny.


Was it on telly in the 80's and 90's.

48k when both sides are shite and one side is tanking.

There was 'a lot' more footy on FTA in the 90's than there is now... And Carlton v Coll should get 60k plus every time regardless of ladder position.

we had 40k last year and 48k this year.. History says these crowds are a very poor turn out for this game.

I would expect 48k at the ground if we were playing the dogs. THAT would be a good turn out.

Maybe we just have a different definition of elite.

Nothing to do with a soft free or 2 on the day. Happens all the time. We just don't like him.

Lots of booing today. Some for standard of footy, some for umpiring, some for players. Who'd of thought?

When you support Carlton and have had to put up with the off an on field tripe for the past 15 years, you'd call anything elite.

Nicholls, elite, Jesaulenko elite, Doull elite, Johnston elite, Silvagni elite, Williams elite, Koutafides elite, Judd elite.

If Simpson is elite, then ...... Flowered if I know. :roll:

They didnt boo Murphy until the soft free. From there it was like a tick for them. They couldn't compute what was going on so went to the default boo. Fired him up and was much better once the booing started.
