Re: Post Game Party!: AFL 2020 Rd 3: Carlton vs Geelong

For 3 qtrs we were actually a good football side doing everything the side has promised for a while. We crapped our pants in the last qtr just trying to hold on to our lead rather than increase it but getting past a top side as we did, smashing them for 3 qtrs on the own dunghill will do the belief alot of good. Hopefully this is the game that changes everything. Time will tell.
For the players, coaches and supporters (the latter probably more than anyone). Sounds like the coaches believed and still do, the players thought they believed leading into Rich and Melb but stumbled. They well and truly got back on track in the first three qtrsv Geel. I for one, despite that we outplayed Melb for 3 qtrs, thought this week was going to be an utter massacre. At qtr time, I actually thought we would do the massacring. I texted two mates at 3/4 time and said to them "watch for the comeback of all comebacks". Not because I know one iota about football, but purely by my conditioning as a Carlton supporter. Holding off and winning made going to bed and waking up Sun morning so much better. More please.
