Carlton Supporters Club

Good win today. Would love to hear from some of the Gibbs-haters, he was just outstanding today

I wouldn't say I was a Gibbs hater more a Gibbs frustrater.
Can be classy, silky and smooth one moment then lack vigour and intent next.
The last few games he has shown what he is capable of and that is fantastic because when he is switched on he is a pleasure to watch and we win.
Way to step up Gibbsy.

X 2. Rowe was certainly no passenger. Anyway the CFC train "is not taking passengers!"  I heard that as I was getting off the train at my station last night.

A guy on TC is calling him ROWEVAGNI!!!

That is going a bit too far. Rowe fumbles too much to be a Silvagni - type. But he is playing very well at the moment and is the key tall defender. His body work and concentration have been excellent, much improved over the first couple of weeks.

I believe his tongue is firmly in his cheek.

But Rowe has been good to very good three weeks in a row. Out bodying and out playing old hands like Pav and young guns like Moore and Daniher.

That people still want to bag him out say a lot about their ingrained insecurity about being wrong.

Hey Cimm...Keogh and Caz still going hard at it on TC?

Reading some of these posts you'd think we'd lost.

That said Agree with most of that apart from sumner and plot an being passengers. Summers best game for the club. Plot an was quiet but quite happy for him not to be noticed.

Also, players were invested in the Wayne Britain game plan. Should never have got rid of him...

The reason that people "bag him out" is the dropped marks and the lack of agility, both traits that are needed at FB/CHB. I would love to know how many uncontested overhead marks Sam has dropped this season.

That being said he was excellent yesterday against a young athletic opponent. I think he gets the team defence we are going with much more than Jammo and that's why he is played ahead of him. Sam Rowe will never drop his head and sulk, will give 100% and at the moment he is our best big defender.

Start marking the overhead marks and Sam is a lock for another 2 years.

But he's played three good games in a row and still gets called a passenger.

He's been good, end of story. Next week he might be bad but people will ignore the fact he's played three good games.

There's absolutely no doubt he feels the heat, but so would I if i'd played in our backline as they've got absolutely no help for two years from the rest of the team in either pressuring the ball carrier or getting back to help out.
