McKay as 2nd ruck has revitalized the big guy.

Interesting that so many players are choosing to kick for goal across their bodies with their non-preferred leg from deep in the forward pockets - with limited success so far - maybe McKay has been coaching them.

Reckon he'll only get better in this dual role. Good mark around the ground and his foot-passes to team mates is quality.

Thats very mischevious Paul.

I'm sure the anti Voss brigade will think it's a load of s h i t.

One of Vossy's first innovations was to give our key forwards licence to help out in the backline whenever they felt it was necessary.  McGovern does just that last night and it's a genius move by Fraser  ::)

It would seem Flynn is.
He shouldn’t be.
He needs to learn but when all you see is sackings, beheadings and public executions it shouldn’t be a surprise to see people think of themselves first.
We need to teach, train and nurture, that’s draftees, staff, coaches, CEO’s and board members.
Supporters too for that matter.
nope nope nope, they must execute or else will be executed.  Its the Carlton way.

:D

The big change for me has been Cripps form , suddenly he has 4th quarter energy and is back to brownlow form?
It's amazing how blokes playing for career survival can suddenly find the energy and effort to give the captain a chop-out! ;)

Cripps is getting to the end of games fresher, because all of a sudden those around him are making an effort.

Also last night we saw what happened when "team defense happened", in the absence of our usual reliance on Weitering to mop up the crap we normally dish up!

This group will go nowhere, because it proves that Voss was put to the sword by selfishness, now that they fear for their own future they have suddenly become selfless. Except for Flynn Young, he should be kyboshed to the VFL for eternity as a warning to others who think about burning the squad for self-benefit.
I hope you are not being serious about Young!? Disgraceful if so! The kid has been burning it up in the VFL and been emergency with no go for weeks and is put in for one game after the coach is sacked and not surprisingly probably feels he has to show the very best of what he can offer - and misjudged a kick - had he kicked it youd be praising him for his dash carry and finish!

Give the kid a good chance ffs. Imo Billy was x10 times better than he had been previously and that’s because hes been given a decent run.
