Need to watch the whole game again, but I am so happy we beat this band of flogs. How's that bed you made Ross?? Is it comfy or a bit lumpy like the farkin lumps on your head. What about you Andrew you turd burger. We had more free kicks than you this week. Time to bitch and moan no doubt. Putrid club that's been propped up by the VFL/AFL since it's existence. Crash and burn you ferals. I only wish I could've been there. This one means more to me than any other win this year. TDK and Jack, money well spent. Nas should ask for a pay rise next year if he's to run around with these phoney's. Phew, glad I got that out of my system.
Onto next week.

Yep dont like their Pres one bit. His whining is why we now have to pay a lot for Cody. So this win against StKilda felt so bloody good. Let see what he will whinge about now. Go Blues

Fraser is showing that rare ability, at Carlton in particular, to find where a player is best suited.

Cerra playing that quarterback type role and Franky delivery those spearing passes into the forward line for instance .Is Framky the best kick at the club?

What was a nice surprise to see was that Cripps sideways kick when going into the forward line. It shows to me that the skipper is leading the way and is listening to the coaches. We're not bombing it long to your Wilkies anymore. Fraser has found a way to stop that rubbish that crept in when we had both Charlie and Harry as targets.

We're a well drilled side now and playing to our strengths. I wont mention Wilsons field passing in the afterglow of such a pleasing win.
I saw what he was trying there (if its the kick I think).  He had not much on, and was trying to bring Hayward central from the wing.  His kick hooked a little, so it went right to left by a few metres, and that was why St. Kilda were able to chop it off.  Degree of difficulty on it was quite high.

Besides that, Wilson generally takes on very dangerous kicks, and I would be loathe to discourage him from doing so.

Its refreshing to see us tighten up on the opposition analysis, but in game you can still see things get through ala Liam Ryan out the back of that contest at the start of the second quarter.

Personally, the biggest difference I can see, is that the boys are hunting in packs, and summing up situations better than we used to.

For the 2nd week in a row Marc Pittonet has demonstrated just how important he is to our team. Against 2 rucks rated better than him, he managed not just to hold his own, but stop his opponents from having any impact and kicking 2 goals himself.
He lost the tap count slightly, but it was the tackling and the ability to nullify his opponents, not to mention 7 clearances, that stood out.

Speaking of standing out, Frankie Evans really did. 22 possessions, 8 marks, 4 tackles and a goal was just the start. He had 14 score involvements and more yards gained than anyone else on the park.

The rucks
Pittonet   17 disposals, 25 hitouts,- 9 Hitouts to advantage, 7 clearances, 2 goals
Marshall 14 disposals, 15 hitouts, - 4 HTA,  4 clearances, 1 goal
De Koning 7 disposals, 14 hitouts, -3 HTA, 3 clearances, 0 goals
