Re: Rd 22: Post Game Peace? Carlton vs Hawthorn Reply #30 – August 19, 2017, 11:15:37 pm Just watched Carko's press conference didn't take much for his 'gutter rat' trates to rresurface, quotes like:'That's how Carlton play, when they win it's 12 goals to 10', he also said our tactics on Sicily would be a good learning for his team and was happy it for it to happen in a dead rubber, well last time I checked Clarko you were still talking finals before we pulled your pants down tonight...sucked in you sniper.

Re: Rd 22: Post Game Peace? Carlton vs Hawthorn Reply #31 – August 19, 2017, 11:51:04 pm That's what I love to see! A stadium full of very glum and unhappy Hawks fans and all because of us! We played out the 4Qs tonight and it paid off in spades. I was doubly delighted since the whole team put in and our younger guys were great. Kudos to Bolts, SOS, and the whole coaching team. The future is starting to look bright. Quote Selected
Re: Rd 22: Post Game Peace? Carlton vs Hawthorn Reply #32 – August 20, 2017, 12:12:35 am So very, very good to see us win on the back of our newbies. Everything else is a distraction, our emerging culture and youth won the day. Quote Selected

Re: Rd 22: Post Game Peace? Carlton vs Hawthorn Reply #35 – August 20, 2017, 12:41:38 am I thought that fact our team knows how to setup defensively played a huge part in tonight's win. As soon as the ball was turned over we were straight into our roles, it was great to see and I believe it is why Bolton has implemented the plan he has to date. To drum in over and over again that the players need to know their roles and that the slower movement game plan we have been playing has helped us adjust to that. With the idea being that as the game plan quickens it is already set in our minds.I have considered our last 2 weeks to be the next step in the Carlton evolution and I stick to my comment that we will finish top 10 next year.

Re: Rd 22: Post Game Peace? Carlton vs Hawthorn Reply #36 – August 20, 2017, 07:52:23 am It was nice to see Weitering back to playing with the poise he showed last year. He should get that shoulder right over the pre season and be ready for his best year next year. Quote Selected

Re: Rd 22: Post Game Peace? Carlton vs Hawthorn Reply #39 – August 20, 2017, 08:36:03 am My wife is a hawthorn fan and in our 11 years it has been one sided. We even had to split the kids in terms of who barracks for who.I always thought that when Carlton finally won I would watch it over and over. Not so certain about that one. It was hardly a win for the ages, and looked every part the round 22 dead rubber it was.But grand to win and sing the song.The ruck duel was excellent with both at the top of their game. It was the highest quality aspect of the match.Docherty, Murphy, Jones, weitering were the best for mine. We fumbled plenty and looked a bit confused at times as we looked at times to go forward and preferred to kick sideways.Still, we scratched out a score. Lamb looked like he belonged and wright is our most creative forward. Sicily gave away 7 frees, helping us out plenty. Hodge too played like a man with one foot out the door. And we are in 15th, rocketing up the ladder. Great to win Quote Selected
