Robert Heatley Stand / Re: JLT Game 2
Definitely depressing to listen to this going on. Our putrid recruiting and player development has really come back to bite us on the arse. How can we have people in the club paid to make such horrific decisions. I'm lost and disillusioned.

I am sooooooooooo glad I didn't bother going today. Have those green shoots that sprung out last year been trampled on.

Ladies Lounge / Re: Women's League
Congrats on the club and the whole concept really. Plenty of other women's sports that are way more uninteresting to watch than this (Tennis is no.1 in my book). Look forward to catching a couple of games during the off-season. Also gives parents who only have girls in the family the chance to watch their kids play at the highest level.

Robert Heatley Stand / Re: Rd 8: Post Game _______: Carlton vs Port Adelaide
Absolutely elated. The atmosphere i those last 2 minutes was electric. People were going off. It's was quite surreal and I loved it.
Team was fantastic. I thought each time someone down (Bolt, Kreuz, Crippa, Plowman) we couldn't win it but they never gave up. Our transition football when we managed to break was the best I've seen and this was clearly our best game skills wise for the year.
No weak links apart from Jammo. I really feel for this guy but his time is up. I am one of the Sam Rowe critics but if he continues to play like he did today he will maintain his spot.
Just brilliant today was Kreuzer. He is the barometer IMO

Robert Heatley Stand / Re: Rd 7 : Pre Game Thread - Blues v Pies
It's games like these that really worry me (although I don't have a lot of confidence either way). Pies are down and out, players injured, out of form a couple of their better players as late withdrawals then BANG they end up smashing us. Seen it happen too many times before.
Really hope Kreuzer has a great game. Took a season high 4 marks last week so I'm praying he's getting some confidence back. Kreuzer wins we win.
Also, if Thomas can have another good game that would be a great result.

Robert Heatley Stand / Re: Rd 3: Carlton vs Gold Coast: Post Game Pain
So, my two cents worth;
I'm with the crew who point out it's game 3 in a rebuilding year so let's take a breath. Yes our skills are still shizen at times but I definitely see an improvement in the way we're TRYING to play. We just don't have enough soldiers right now (still should have beaten $hitmond)
The players
Weitering BOG closely followed by E Curnow and maybe the Doc?
Gibbs, Murphy, Kreuzer Thomas and Simpson (poor games and no impact). On K-man I think I agree with those that suggest he should just ruck on his own.
Phillips tries but because he also has no impact and my previous point re Kreuzer means give him a rest.
Thought BOTH the Irish guys did OK. Tuohy gets plenty of whacks for some reason on this site but at least he can influence positively on occasions.
Cripps good considering he was struggling with some sort of injury.
C Curnow and Levi I'm happy for them to be persisted with.
Kerridge and BB started OK but got worse as the game went on?
Jammo and Rowe, real bad. Jammo has runs on the board but we can't afford to carry the two of them so for me Rowe HAS TO GO. Bring in anyone else with two legs.
Dylan did a couple of nice things and tries his guts out but just not up to it at the moment.
Whiley, why was he selected??? Gives us nothing. Go back.
Nick Graham a bit like Dylan but a smidge better, just.
Wright got a bit of it but went unnoticed. Another with a lack of influence. He is no Eddie.
Heaven help us against the doggies next week.
