Admittedly not much opposition but our structures are looking great the blues can hardly move the thing
Actually i thought Carlton were running the ball well at times. They just have worse disposal than us and screwed things up consistently. Our disposal still worries me. Dempster had a 15m kick to a guy way open and completely fluffed it. Goods teams will kills us if we do that.
You probably picked the only skill error out in the quarter
Commentators said the saints were going 80% by foot

Umpiring is okay.

Razor Ray has improved although he missed a couple of incorrect disposals from the scummers.

Commentators are still shithouse

Yeah but what is that 80% made up of? I think if you kick to a fiddy-fiddy and get some sort of hands on it it counts. This a praccie match against pretty poor oppo where Bruce and Paddy are having a field day and getting front and centre nearly every time.

He and Long ran onto the ground when the others came off at half time.

Newnes was the only one still wearing a training top on the final warmup.
He is on now

We have a stronger side on the park than the Blues, but we are still playing okay.

Cripps and Weitering are playing, but no Kreuzer, Casboult, Murphy or Gibbs
