Apart from Gov, good hit out. Much more organised and cohesive. Everyone knew their roles and some really promising signs from SOS in defence, Campo with the tempo of AFL (didn't look out of place), TDK in the ruck.
The other negative was Motlop, a headless chook is the best way to describe him for mine.
Nearly got away with injury free, hopefully Gov was just on the slight side but knowing our luck, it will be season ending.
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time
2025-Carlton can win the 2025 AFL Premiership

Free kicks were a little more even than the Saints game; 23 to 14 their way 🙄

For a bloke who gets his share of umpires’ votes, Crippa gets the rough end of the pineapple unless it’s the most blatant free.
It's still the Gulf of Mexico, Don Old!

Might want to check your stats.
It was our way

Nice final tune up.
Much better effort than last week
Saw a little bit from most players.
Whether that tansfers to the more intense level of AFL football will be a 'wait and see'.
It does augur well for the VFL side.
I wouldn't play him for a while but if Lucas Camporeale is the 'second best' of the duo we're going to be very pleased with that outcome.
He was only on for a short time but Matt Carroll also had a bit of a presence about him

Our pressure was better than theirs but still well below what we'd see in a real game.
GWS have Collingwood in a weeks time so might have had one eye on that... we have a couple of extra days before we play.

Give it a rest. Are you talking about the St Kilda game? If we had more free kicks in that game I'll go he.

Those that havent watched the game

-Moo, was tough and reliable.
- Silvagni , very reliable - guts and determination in everything he does.
- Ollie - good game
- Lucas - he was collecting 25-30 possessions u18 seems to think he is playing against u 18 players again... his direct opponent Ohallarahan just didnt have the class to keep up with him imo
- Hewett - solid
- Haynes - extremely reliable
- Cerra - simply excellent and probably our best player before sitting out rest of match
- Lord - very good
- TDK - very good
- Kemp - very good... very quick and very good when ball hits the ground - give him a contract extention now.. took Taylor and Buckley to the cleaners
- Zac - never seen him move like he is right now - very good
- Cottrell - severely missed him last year when he was injured - so underrated and so important
-Fantasia - like Zac never seen him move like he is right now - very good

It looks like AFL.com  stuffed up the stats.

On the Team stats page it shows Carlton hasd the frees in their advantage 23-14
On the player stats the frees for GWS add up to 23 for Carlton 14.

I thought the free kick discrepancy in GWS’s favour stood out like dog’s bollocks.  My AFL app showed 23-14 GWS’s way and I tallied up the individual frees for and against just to be sure.

I don’t think there’s much difference in the way each team plays and tackles were even.  We just got shafted … again!

I've looked at the 'Match stats' on AFL.com this morning and it's still showing the blue line with a 23 along side it and the opposition with 14
It's clearly a mistake when compared to the individual player stats which would be the correct ones.
It's understandable why folks who just checked the match stats would believe that we won the free kicks.

Yep, that's what I checked.
Must have the work.experience kid in charge of uploading the data this week as it does indeed show differing figures depending on where you look.

For the record, I didn't think umpiring was terrible, about on a par with relative player skill level. Only questionable decision that jumped out at me was motlops free against.

EDIT: Still showing backwards here....
