And Fyffe was allowed to kick a goal being no where near the mark as well.

Small forward line allowed us to create more pressure inside 50. Collingwood /Richmond 2017 model.

Great win !

This post simply hasn't received the recognition it deserves.

My son plays footy at 3.00pm on Sunday’s and I’m the full time runner so we were never able to go to the game. My disappointment about missing ceased once I knew Cripps wasn’t playing. Thought we were no chance.

Was given a score update at qtr time……..was flat to say the least.

Knew the half time score (with no context).

We listened to the last qtr on the radio on the way home. Got back home as Freo kicked their last goal to get back in front. Flat again.

Then we all know what happened.

Still can’t believe it.

I couldn’t watch the last 30 secs. Went in another room and could only peak through to see what happened.

It was my sons 15th on Friday. He has stayed true blue through all the tough times. Couldn’t be prouder of him. We had a passionate embrace after the game and I whispered ‘happy bday son’. Moment I will cherish.

Couldn't be happier for the entire club.

Nice that you peaked in your other room too. No doubt you weren't the only one.

Walking into work this morning like a boss. Eagles fans cheering me. Dockers fans avoiding eye contact.

Pretty sure McGov put on a bit hurt in a great tackle in the first quarter as well

Screen shot - just because I enjoyed it

Got home from Lil' Miss Wojee's (not so little now, living with her boyfriend in South Morang) and watched the first Q using my folks' Foxtel Go.

Was disappointed by the score so went and unpacked, reprogrammed the aircon (which annoyingly sets itself to weird settings after a power outage) and did some other things.

Checked the score and we'd caught up so watched again. Freo immediately kicked a couple of goals so I went and finished a couple of things I needed to do.

I then watched again until Fyfe was allowed to yank Silvagni away from the goal square by his jumper and turned off again. It was clear that I was jinxing the team by watching and I was doing everyone a favour.

Checked the scores later on, expecting a 3-4 goal loss and I think it took me a full 30 seconds to process the scoreline. For a second I thought the AFL had published it wrong.

I then waited until 12.30am when it was available on demand and watched the entire thing.

Whether it was due to me wearing my Carlton Stormtrooper shirt all day, or me lifting the jinx by not watching, you're all welcome.

Was up for trade and no one wanted him. Has bounced back well and hope that he continues to improve.

Must say...in those tight games.....6-6-6 makes for some excellent finishes. I reckon there'd be quite a number of games this year where a team has taken the lead with a minute or so to go and lost

So we can add air conditioning repairs to gardening in the list of activities that will guarantee a Carlton win. I just put in an order for 30 energy efficient LED downlights. Hopefully they arrive before the weekend so I can do my bit.

To be fair, Casboult had 10 hanging off him and still got the ball clear. 2-6-10 would t have stopped him

In an ideal world, you always peak together.

Masterstroke from Coaches to release Curnow from the Fyfe tag and move SOS onto him. kept him under control allowing Curnow to go ballistic in the midfield. There is the game right there. Under Bolton Curniow would have been stuck in the forwards flank twiddling his thumbs
