watched the second half and some i saw some bad signs especially the LONG bombs into the fwd line and the worst long bomb is when we go long to the wings only to watch the opposition win the ball and send it straight back hopefully this will change for our final .

AFL Rd 23: Carlton vs Gold Coast at Gold Coast
We haven’t traditionally played well on the Gold Coast, so winning is a positive. Winning from so far behind is a huge positive. Getting so far behind was not so good.
Team: B
Votes:
[2.5] Charlie Curnow
[1.5] George Hewett
[1.5] Nic Newman
[1.5] Jacob Weitering
[1] Sam Docherty
[1] Zac Fisher
[1] Blake Acres
[1] Paddy Dow
[1] Jack Martin
[1] Jesse Motlop
[0.5] Adam Saad
[0.5] Brodie Kemp
[0.5] Patrick Cripps
[0.5] Ed Curnow
Explanations:
[2.5] Charlie Curnow: Probably the difference between winning and losing. He changed the game.
[1.5] George Hewett: A strong game from George; 23 possessions, 10 tackles and 4 clearances.
[1.5] Nic Newman: Another great game in defence. 31 possessions from the back half!
[1.5] Jacob Weitering: Dominated his position and provided drive from defence.
[1] Sam Docherty: Another typical Doc game. He keeps getting the pill and putting his body on the line.
[1] Zac Fisher: Another solid game from Fisher in defence.
[1] Blake Acres: Probably deserves more than 1 vote, but he is brilliant early and tends to drift out of the game.
[1] Paddy Dow: Very solid, especially after a slow start.
[1] Jack Martin: Could have had 4 or 5. Showed it meant something.
[1] Jesse Motlop: Exciting.
[0.5] Adam Saad: Solid in defence and setting up forward thrusts.
[0.5] Brodie Kemp: A very solid game in defence.
[0.5] Patrick Cripps: Clearly injured, although he had half of his possessions in the first quarter. 8 tackles and 3 clearances shows his metal.
[0.5] Ed Curnow: 7 possessions in the last quarter was pretty good.
Honourable Mentions:
Matt Owies: Not a lot of the ball, but a couple of crucial goals and some good defensive effort.
Harry McKay: A bit rusty, but worked into the game.
Alex Cincotta: Solid across half back again.
