Could someone at the club please teach Rowe how to run the ball over the boundry without being to obvious, thats twice in three games he has been pinged for deliberate.

Tonight's was a simply disgraceful decision imo.

Agreed, I thought it was harsh, but he should have learned when they pinged him against WC a couple of weeks ago, dont run straight at the boundry line

Sure, but given the distance to the boundary where the contest took place and the speed at which he was moving, was there any other option?

I have always believed that in that situation, take the ball run just over the line then kick it down field, the umps will never pay it.

Dwayne Russell should stop doing Carlton games , his bias is sickening. eddie McDickhead 's comments after the game, whinging about Sloan being pinged for incorrect disposal and his throw, was just as bad. Learn the rules, the ball left his hand before his fist punched it, thats a throw every day. Didnt hear you mention the deliberate against Rowe, or the mark that was paid at half time that hit the ground.

I was at the game today. Umpiring from number 11 was absolutely disgraceful. Betts gained confidence after his first 2 goAls. The first was a 50 metre penalty that shouldn't have been  and the other resulted from an obvious push in the back free to the Blues that was once again missed by the umpire. Touhey did OK. He do is not fit. Nowhere near what he was last season. Gibbs was very good. Simmo was excellent. Both White and Rowe did very well down back. Both Buckley and Docherty are playing for the jumper.
Spot on, Eddies second goal should have been a free to Murphy for either too high or holding the man

Dont like the Waite dropping, I know he hasn't been good but he is still the best option forward. Rowe is a spud and shouldn't be pick before Waite.
Jeffy needed a spell, and Im having doubts about whether he is good enough anyway.
Lucas is a ball magnet, but I don't care. He is soft and couldnt hit a target to save his life, we have way too many ordinary kicks in the side as it is. In this dream team obsessed footy today, we are far to concerned with stats. The same with hit outs, if they don't go to advantage its like a turnover.
Scotland has been a great servant but he should have retired last year. For those watching closely last year he made way too many mistakes. I would rather have kept Laidler, but the great MM didn't think he was good enough. He walked into the powerful Sydney side but couldn't get a game with us. You stubborn old fool MM.
Still don't know why they havnt fixed Casbolts kicking style, he drops the ball from too high, why cant the skills coaches see that. He is an outstanding contested mark but wastes it with poor kicking.
Just for a change I would like to see us put pressure on the opposition. I hate giving up these little 15 metre passes. Put pressure on the guy with the ball and force him to kick to a contest, stop giving up the little pressure relieving passes. find your man and stand next to him.
I would expect to have an easy win this week, Melbourne coudnt have come at a better time. Please don't make Menzel the sub.

Well done young Bucks.
On a side note, Carlton would have to be the least nominated club for The Rising Star. From memory I think Yaz has been nominated. Off the top of my head I cant think of another player who has been nominated. Great Recruiting Hughes

Here's a list ---> http://www.blueseum.org/tiki-index.php?page=Rising+Star+Nominees

Thanks for that, but I meant since Yaz I cant think of another player. Your list shows Gartlett, so I missed one
