Robert Heatley Stand / Re: AFL Rd 16 2026 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs West Coast

Looked a million bucks in the first quarter.
Fell asleep for most of the middle half of the game.
Put the foot down a bit in the last.

Thankfully it was just west coast and they couldn't capitilise in the middle....and it was a relatively comfortable win overall.

Be interested to see how Pittonet pulls up. Looks shot early on, ump stopped the game because he stayed down so long. Not sure what it was if it was captured on TV. But hopefully he pulls up ok.

We sit in the wildcard spot for the next 3 hours!!! Collingwood playing Richmond will kick us out again unfortunately.
We really needed a big percentage booster today, as good as it was to win it was a bit of an opportunity missed.

It's not going to be good enough to finish on par with the Filth, because they might be injury ravaged but they have an easier run home. Us, Norp and the Suns have a tougher run home.

A bit of a lull in the middle of the last, but the boys are coming home strong.

West Coast have been pretty competitive in the last few weeks. This is a great effort by the boys. Well done to all concerned. Some more accuracy on goal and it could've been 10 goals +.
Agreed, didn't get to watch it today but I'm happy and yet disappointed at the same time. This week was our chance to come out of this round with a percentage equal to the Filth or Norp.

As I've said before until we start to slaughter sides like Wet Toast we aren't really going anywhere near the top end. I was hoping for 10+ but fearing a defeat today, my fears are allayed and it's a good sign, but we didn't hurt that bunch of spuds in the way we should have.

Winning comfortably is the problem, the comfortable part, it doesn't give me confidence we have the killer instinct we need to go hard against the top end when the going gets tough.

PS; If you want to know the definition of disappointing, it's only being able to get MMM reception and the first person you hear is BT! FFS, he spent 1/2 of the game discussing police surrounding the coach's bench! He should hand back his pay cheque for today, if he doesn't want to be at or call Carlton games, then please BT do not bother to show up because you are accepting a paycheck fraudulently!
