Wearing that number 5 with pride. Certainly doesn't look like a first year player that played no pre-season games
Awesome pick up
(was trying to link that scene from Crackerjack where Bill Hunter takes his hat off for a good bowl.)
Hats off to SOS.
2025... Moir of the same to come

Seeing him with that No 5 reminds me of a young Syd Jackson.....

Not really, I think Syd was more an outside runner but certainly had the good ball use SPS shows.

I'm not sure we've ever had a player quite like this SPS kid, his highlight reel is going to come in and around stoppages. He's like Murphy before we let Murphy's opponents smash him!

Kind of like Murphy crossed with Campo's dancing feet, maybe a bit of Whitehead on the LHS?  Gees, talk about a good player wrecked by injury there.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

Lots to like from this round.
Noticed Daisy's candy and running goal, and ASOS run down tackle ending in Weitering goal are in 10 best afl moments. Cool.

Green shoot for me:
Samo's hard tackle followed by his over the head handball to Levi.
= Vision and speedy decision making, strong core and arms, fast execution.
Levi has a quick snap on his left, no less, and splits the middle.
= quick reaction, confidence, goalkicking accuracy.

Bl**dy hell. It's been a while since we've been so spoilt for choice.

Go new Blues

Keeping together is progress.

Don't normally post, however my green shoot that I  would like to mention is Charlie C. He was on Reid in the second half and ran him around ragged and nullified his output as he was marking everything that came down his way in the first half. In a post match interview on an ABC Reid acknowledged Charlie's running capacity and found it hard to keep up. So if this was by design it was a good coaching move by Bolts and his staff. Just goes to show that even with his drink driving indiscretion before he was drafted we were not put off by it at all.

That ASOS tackle was awesome, really put the knife in when we scored the goal.  ;D

Sammo it is then.

I'd like all Carlton fans to keep last weekends game in memory.

Sammo like any other 1st year player is going to get 2nd year blues, it may even come earlier because after last weekend he's now officially on the radar of our opponents. In the short term it will get tough for him, and you can expect him to be inconsistent. But stick by him, back in his little moments and we'll get to see them for a whole career!
