Re: AFL Rd 22 2025 In Game Angst Carlton vs Gold Coast Reply #30 – August 09, 2025, 08:56:29 pm Quote from: Adelaideblue – on August 09, 2025, 08:51:57 pmYes we don't have the same overall skill level as Gold Coast, but why don't our players give a lead? Often it is not the fault of the player who kicks the high ball towards Harry M and his 2-3 attending backs, no other Carlton player has led up.AbOne thing i've noticed today, but realised its a regular thing, but why does Harry try to mark the ball directly above his head? That is, why not take it out in front of your eyes?If the ball is high, he'll stop and jump straight up.If the ball is in front of him and high, he'll jump at have his arms straight up.If the ball is in front of him, and at a reasonable level, he won't jump, but try and take it high above his head.....Those are the ones you jump and take it in front of your eyes, so the defender can't get a crack at it.Look at the way King gets the ball on the lead, out in front, arms at a 45, take it in front of your eyes.Think the great FF's of yesteryear. Lockett, Ablett, Dunstall.....take it out in front.Yes, the kicking isn't the best, but Harry doesn't help himself. Quote Selected

Trying to stay uninjured to get his 12 million...lol.He's losing but he's competing. Weitering is running the other way from King. Quote Selected

Re: AFL Rd 22 2025 In Game Angst Carlton vs Gold Coast Reply #44 – August 09, 2025, 09:23:59 pm Suns have beaten Collingwood and Brisbane recently. Thrashed Richmond as well. They are no mugs, and they have clearly stepped up this season. There's no point documenting our issues, they are already well known. Let's be realistic. Quote Selected 1 Likes
