Dry sunny day...first goal of the game to Hendo
Early days but Kruez has put it down the throat of the onballers every time!
Score review on a Juddy goal is all clear :D
Our midfielders certainly have a point to prove this week after MM lamented their performance against the Roos.
Juddy with a free and kicks off line :P
Does anyone know where it can be streamed online live?
Already we are trying to kick ourselves out of this game.
The amigos looking in form today.
Right 4 goals up, here comes the fade out.
Blues on fire so far ;)
We just need to keep capitalising when we go forward.
Umpiring is going to a worry today. First a centre bounce not recalled and we score, then Lucas has no op and is paid HTB CGS goal ::)
2
It will be all square by quarter time.
Is that twice that Lucas has given 50, need more professionalism mate!
Brown playing loose man and waking everyone, hopefully one of our boys gives something to remember.
we are so so mentally lazy.....
Gold Coast have certainly lifted and we need to match it.
Another F@@ing 50m penalty against us...that's 3 now >:D
for a team that supposedly has the smartest coach going around, we're a dumb team
I haven't seen many Suns games, but so far all I've seen Ablett Jr do is sit behind play, free kicks and call for the pass. His this his Saul MO?
Curnow doing well getting a bit of the ball himself.
From 26pts to only an 8pt lead at end of first Q...not good enough Blues
Every game the same thing.
Get to 4 goals up and go to sleep.
Nah but Mick is all about the process. Same mistakes 18 weeks in.
Good to see MM give Robbo a bake!
Do you reckon MM might make a move to cover the Brown loose man ::)
4 in a row for the Suns!!!
Wow Jamo is cooked.
This umpiring is bordering on cheating.
Hall ran 30 metres
Gibbs strong mark, push.
Blocking the run??? Wtf ?
This is symptomatic of a team that gets 4 goals in front early on and thinks that the game will win itself. Cr@p play from a very ordinary team. Eddie Betts HAS to fly for the big mark. A selfish act from a selfish player. >:(
We're the only ones who want Carlton to win. The umps, the AFL, the commentators etc all want the suns to win.
We could lose this by 60 the way were going
How can the Suns be getting so many free kicks - we are not that undisciplined...
Stuff the umpiring, our players need to take responsibility to win the game. If you are relying on the umpires to help us, we may as well fly back to Melbourne now.
we are shot, vacant upstairs......
kicking into the forward line is abysmal.
But isn't that why we are paying $1M pa for the best coach, so that they don't :-\
Just like we are the masters of losing 3-4 games in a row, we allow teams to get runs of 3-4 goals in a row when we should not allow it.
Absolutely, and he still hasn't found the way to get them mentally tough enough to keep the pressure on for a full game.
Kicking it to betts with a 1:3 WTF?
There goes selfish Eddie again still trying to take the specky. >:( >:( >:(
Can one of or soft prix please go and legally knock C Brown over?
That's the first time I have seen Eddie shoot for goal from a set shot and not run out on an angle but run straight at the goals. Maybe he's finally learnt. :D
Hendo had a perfect line early in the 2nd but we have no one that plays like that and he knows it :(
Bryce Gibbs - when the f.. are you going to stand up and play football.
Rowe can't take a contested mark
Mitch MIA ? Old be subbed in the second half at this rate.
Robbo's no shrinking violet :o
Mate, the impossible CAN happen, but miracles stopped happening 2000 years ago ;)
Apart from Hendo do we have anyone else?
Just cant take a mark today
I reckon Carazzo is finished
MM should hang his head in shame..... we simply don't know what we are doing.....
Rowe dropping everything in sight.
Carrots - poor poor football.
I agree Carrazo is gone.
Kruezer putting on a clinic in the ruck
Yeah we get it, Micks pi$$ed!! ::) F@ck me these commentators $hit me. >:(
Put the screwen thing thru Hendo FFS
Nice kick from Murph in the centre to Hendo and a goal to top it off. :)
Need a run of goals blues
Yeah, this game has scored the C grade commentary and umpiring team.
Weak as pi$$ Watson!!
No better effort from Mitch... back to the 2s. missing Cachia imo.
Sorry to say it but,Watson= Useless.
Why?
He had nothing to kick too and played the mick Malthouse plan of going the boundary. but it can't be the messiahs fault can it.
Only one person gone in our side and it's
Sadly Jamo.
Absolute farken arse
Come on Shades, he cant kick the thing for em.
What happened in that passage of play resulting in the Betts goal, is what those boys are there for. Not to fly for marks but to stay at ground level waiting for the sopillage. Seems simple, doesn't it!!
No in the back or no trip just then.
He's doing ok so far. Lucky kick by Dixon.
F@ck me Robbo!!!
Typical Mitch all the time in the world and misses. >:(
screw off Mitch learn to kick
Nice of the commentators to finally acknowledge Juddy after it all being about Ablett so far....
Laidler at his worst is 1000 times better than Watson at his best.
How the feck was that a free to Ablett...no wonder Walker went off!
When are our blokes gonna learn to cheat and drop their knees and go to ground when in a marking contest?
why is cachia being punished as a sub for playing well and robbo gets a game when we know hes only a crash and bash selfish player?
Robbo plays some clever footy....
His brain is far more of a concern than his kicking
Once again from that kick from Garlett, instead of being front and centre where the ball went, Betts is in the pack. Just a smart @rse selfish Richard Cranium looking to finish on a highlight reel >:( >:( >:(
I reckon Robbo's got one more quarter of footy to turn things around or he'll find himself back at Cramer street.
notice they didn't show that incident again.....
Robbo's miss could well cost us the game....
in case anyone wants to watch it live:
http://www.day.to/watch/live/streaming/online/free/en-vivo/1/609710/july-27-2013/gold-coast-suns-vs-carlton-blues.html
Utterly gob smacked. Nothing more Walker could do. Let go, jumped over the falling Ablett! Standard of umpiring is farcical.
i'd rather develop cachia - disciplined and can tackle
Robbo for a bag of sherrins come years end
Fk off to the music festivals and twitter
He'd have a few mates with him too....12 behinds to us so far...
Wouldn't like us to be only 11pts up going in to the last quarter with the Suns supporters calling their team home.
How bad has the umpiring been?!!!!!
Woodstock, you are a champion! Thanks mate!
We say this every week but maybe we just give away more free kicks than anyone else? Some of the frees are soft but some are just plain stupid and reckless that we shouldn't even give the umpire an opportunity to pay them.
Yes, the umpiring is cr@p, but if we are good enough we will overcome the umpiring. Unfortunately, we are an ordinary team, which is why we have lost games when we have been goals in front, and why we are in ninth place and not in the eight. We have weaknesses in every department and will need some excellent trading at years end to improve next year. If you are going to rely on umpires to get you a win, it says all that needs to be said about your teams ability.
I haven't seen any of the game but surprised that there is so much negative stuff about Robbo. Is he doing a lot of the hard stuff behind the scenes as usual or has he just lost the plot?
And Judds, and Hendo's and McLeans and the list goes on
Doesn't know what the plot is ;D ;D
Woeful...only the biased commentary on Foxtel has been worse...
Our blokes are getting hacked in marking contests and getting nothing......
Going to take a big effort to win this game.....GC have the younger legs and we need a decent lad at 3/4 time....hopefully Nicholls stays off and Dixon has to ruck
and stays away from FF.
Curnow doing ok on Ablett...
Robbo been terrible, Carrazzo not much better, ditto for Gibbs..
Simpson and Walker holding the backline together...the amigos are suited by the warm conditions and Henderson has been very good again.
Campbell Brown needs knocking out....if Robbo could run into him it could be his best touch for the day......
Watsons work on the ground is non existant and he gives up to easily...
Umpiring has been ordinary. The Lucas free in the first for not attemtping to dispose of the ball is fine, I like the rule, but to pick one out crapes me, I just want consistency.
:)
I am surprised that there has been so much negativity towards him. I admit it seems he is far from the sharpest tool in the shed but I respect and value him in our team because he will never take a backwards step. With the team that we have, a hard player like Robbo is of significant value despite the stupid mistakes
How did Eddie miss that from in front...that's 2 misses so far this Q. C'mon Blues we need GOALS.
that's only because we have a team of weak soft non sheparding weak tacklers
Nicholls being subbed so Dixon will need to stay in the ruck
Hell!! if Watson had guts, determination and the will to throw himself into the contest, he would be a terrific player when combining that with his kicking. Unfortunately he doesn't have the first three qualities I mentioned. What a waste of what could have been a great talent. :( :( :(
Too cute Jeffy!!
Yeah I'm badly injured ;) ;) ;)
We really don't do enough when we have the ascendancy
Sub Carrots!
Wow :o
Carazzo
Carrots of last year would have bent down to pick that up. Not this year. Gone!!
and that's why it kill ya >:(
If that was Ablett instead of carrots it would have been a kick and 50 metres.
Lucas terrible today
Lucas back to normal today.
Lucas really needs to work on his disposal >:(
What about the high tackle ump FFS!!!
Umpires are giving us nothing at all
Last year we kicked 11.20. It's not looking better this year.
Get 3 in front and go for a cup of tea. They are a disgrace.
I could accept GC getting goals if we were tackling hard, putting the pressure on etc. but we aren't. The tackling, like it has been all year is non- existent. We have got too many passengers. I think Touhey has had one touch today. just doesn't do enough. He's no Rheece handley that's for sure. So Touhey gets a possesion and look what he does with it. >:( >:( >:(
Can any of our forwards keep their feet??
Curnow thought he was training ::)
Finally
And another miss...geez
I have never known a team to fall over as much as we do. Especially at Jihad stadium.
This bs up, just got a cheap HTB and a 50. JH do it again ;D
The commentators should all just run down to the boundary line and blow Ablett, and be done with it.
How been subbed ?
Well done Brock.
The umps won't be the reason if we lose.
Listening to the ABC radio coverage here in Sydney (no TV today) and all we seem to be doing is keep a goal or two ahead of them. We cannot shake them off at all and if they are this close in the last they will be sniffing another victory.
Badly need to boot out to a 5-goal lead and give ourselves some breathing space.
Why do we panic when the pressure's on? We should rise to the occasion but we don't...good teams do. That's not a process issue!
The fact that harbrow was able to get past three of our players says it all :( :(
@Sheik. We just need to sharpen our skills and play accountable footy and we'll win. ATM we are playing like cr@p!
10.18 Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrk
10.19........
10 goals 19 points...Good lord!!!
what do these guys do at training during the week ffs.....
Thank goodness for the siren!
Suns have belief, and we continue to keep them in with crap footy and a lack of skills.
watch it here mate..
http://www.day.to/watch/live/streaming/online/free/en-vivo/1/609710/july-27-2013/gold-coast-suns-vs-carlton-blues.html
Have a skinny latte mochino cappuchino short black coffee 8) 8)
WTF is wrong with our goal kicking, my mate is at the game and he said the conditions are perfect and there is no breeze.
Did Lucas get subbed???
Sorry, but Rowe is not up to it. He should have run closer to goal, his man had fallen over
Gold Coast don't have a slow player out there. Our quick guys just look normal.
Heard Vlad say on pre-game radio today that players aren't allowed to practice goal kicking at training anymore. Bad for the quads apparently!! FMD
2.7 that quarter.
If we lose this one, there's why.
One positive is that we've increased our lead at the end of each Q :)
Carrazo whose been cr@p gave the boys a talk before the start of this quarter. That should inspire them ;D
Thanks for the link Woody.
Don't know if I want to watch it now?
Nice hit on junior, but can we get Brown.
Kudos for junior getting up. Any of our players hit like that we would need the stretcher.
Good work Robbo!
Eddie took the safe bet there and passed to Hendo to goal
Finally worked hòw to get back on site ;D
Just wanted to say hi again
Also, we r not very good >:(
Ordinary game today by Jammo.
This commentator Basil .... embarasses himself and his family every time he speaks.
Absolute pipe smoker
Hendo 4.2 now :)
Can't lose from here now can we ?? Biggest lead of the match too !!
Go Blues!
Danger zone though. 5 goals up.
Suns to kick the next 3.
With all the ex footballers they could call on, why they use this toss bag is a complete mystery.
We will win this, although we are 29 in front and we usually go for coffee when we are that far in front. I suppose any win is a good win, but this has been an ordinary effort. We are going to need to be a hell of a lot better to beat Freo next week.
You idiot. We are carlton of course we can.
Toss Bag!! how dare you complement that Richard Cranium :P :P
Ablett tried some Robbo retaliation but got pinged for it ;D
Dear Mick,
I realise you are the greatest coach of all time, however if you can just listen to poor supporter just once. Please do not make Cachia the sub again. Please.
Kind regards
Goat
Dropped mark by Watson, need I say more. ???
No just need to get over your biase. Bet you MM won't drop him for that ::)
They didn't but they do have 2 in a row now ::)
Cup of coffee time
We drop this and I'll be coming for you Sheik :P
Murph hasn't had a good day
I'll be coming for myself!! :o
Army puts the nail in the coffin !!
Ok Shiek, you can bring out the fat lady now.
Very happy to get away with one.

I'm assuming she can sing :)) :))
Looks like my Mother in Law :o :o :o
Not something I'd be admitting to but each to their own. ^-^
Nice late goal by McLean - 43 pt win :D :D :D
Why was MM so unhappy when the ball was kicked to Hendo?
