I haven't seen a very clear angle of the Daisy bump, but from the two or three angles I've seen it looked like Daisy's shoulder hits Greenwood in the chest and their heads clash. Because Daisy doesn't fold like a pack of cards apparently he's a mongrel!

Also the jumper clash, there it is in the media today, the truth behind the spuddly left field out of the blue unscripted jumper clash question.

MadGuire has come out and stated there is too much of a clash between the traditional jumpers and he is going to act on the Collingwood jumper. Decoded, that probably means one of two things.

Firstly, and least likely, he is folding to the AFL's wishes and he commissioning a Collingwood clash jumper. Alternatively, despite saying that he wants Carlton to retain it's traditional jumper for away games against Collingwood, that is all just smokescreen because MadGuire knows the AFL will do his dirty work to get Carlton to change it's kit when we play away to the Pies!

Concur with many of the posts. We are still undersized and lost the flow of the game often as players are out of position. Gartlett looked clueless, running in ever small circles, (did a nice tap through for a behind though) while oshae and mullet are part of the brigade that just make up the numbers.

Was the first game all season where we showed the type of ball movement we are aiming for. It has appears a few times, but it was implemented several times. Really encouraging and allows zones to be overcome.

Bad for plowman. Hopefully just a jarred knee without any longterm damage.

A white back instead of black will solve the issue.

What issue, it's imaginary!

Difference wise there is already a some stripes versus a solid colour, white and black shorts, the CGU logo.



Perhaps one team can wear flashing lights on their head to make sure the nerds can tell them apart! ::)

FFS, this was never an issue in the days or black and white, low definition analogue TV. Now that we can see a blackhead on some players face in full HD the jumpers have become a problem!

MadGuire doing this for a reason, he probably wants more marketing space and is too petrified to tell the toothless hoard they need to buy an alternate jumper!

Collingwood used to have predominantly white backs on their jumpers and there was no sponsors on the back. Sponsors logos stand out better on dark backgrounds, hence the introduction of the black backs. I think also, Collingwood wanted to make sure that Port Adelaide was never going to be able to wear their traditional jumper which had a black back.
Also play was far less congested and there were a lot of one on one contests in the olden days. Nowadays, when you're at the ground, it is really difficult to pick up the players sometimes, particularly from a distance, on dull days or in fading light.

Sorry Jofo, there is no way known a genuine fan is going to be confused, they could all be wearing tutti frutti coveralls and we'd be able to tell them apart!

Even with eyes closed and ears covered, a Carlton fan can detect a filth supporter entering the room from the smell! ;D

The filth players are even easier to detect, they are the ones that instantly annoy you when your gaze falls upon them! Like when you swat a wasp before you have even recognised what it is!

Bone bruising with possible medial damage.

The clash jumper is a non-issue.
What gets my attention in the pic is Crippa's face.....
Boy he looks seriously angry... heck even gentle Kruez has a furrowed brow  ;D
Love that it means so much to them. Perhaps there's something to the club talk that they're a really tight group.

Cripps came at Adams after he sniped a couple of our blokes from behind (which he has a history of doing outside nightclubs, and probably should be in jail right now). Grabbed Adams by the jumper and I've never seen a player back peddle so quickly to try to get away. Was hilarious. Exposed Adams for the coward that he is

Mmm thanks Jack.
Can't see any Pie wanting to face off with an angry Crippa. None with any sense that is  ::)

I see someone has Daisy in a headlock too.
It was quite the spectacle.

To top it off for the Pies, they may not have escaped the injury curse after all. Poor Adam Treloar has hamstring injury requiring Specialist opinion.

My first hint that we were starting to harden up was the pre-season game against Essendon in 2016.  A bit of a barney started and three of the first blokes in action were Jack, Charlie and Harry.  It warmed the cockles of my heart  :)

It is very noticeable that when players attempt to get into one of our blokes after an error they are met with a wall of navy blue.

DJC. Was that out near the boundary?
I recall a scuffle (? PS last year) where all the baby blues lined up to back each other. That was very reassuring. They hadn't been with us long as I recall. Perhaps a sign of the successful PS camp.

Maybe we can earn a few quid taking teams on PS camps in Tassie ;D ;D ;D the camaraderie, bonding, and trust building minus the head games.....

One thing about young Jack Silvagni is he's often the first one into these "conflicts"....and there he is again right in the middle of this one ;D

Kane Lambert...sure on Malthouse watch..2/3 years Bullants no games...Tiger Premiership player and in their top 5 elite players...never given a chance....we must have had an elite list last 10 years not to give these guys a look/run...NOT!!!!

You should post more Gags.

But i gotta pull you up on this point.

Yes Lambert was playing Bullants for years, but he was never on Carltons list.

We didn't have any claims over him. Every other club passed over him multiple times as well.

Sometimes you just get lucky.
