    My 2 cents worth:

    ...
    The two things I thought were great to come out of the night.
    Jetstar's super goal, he looked like he was coasting after the initial first couple of steps, whilsts the Blue behind him was bustin' a gut.
    The Eski looks like he may have the magic back. Hopefully the other Dream Team/Super Coach hopefuls out there believe this :

    "BURY 'EM"
    It seems the dashing half back will never return to the heights he reached before wrecking his knee two years ago.

    One HD is replaying the game at 1pm today. Fingers crossed the recorder works, I want to see the Jetta 3rd Quarter bonanza.

    And cheers Sharp9 for the Torrent site.
    Just looking through the TV guide for the week. One HD (and I presume ONE digital) is also showing this game at the following times:-

    Thursday morning 6.30 am to 8.30 am
    Saturday afternoon 2.00 pm to 4.00 pm

    Lots of opportunities to catch up......

    Is your RWO mojo linked to Melcho's resurrection?
    Nice to see you back!

    Just what I was thinking LK.
    if Bevo strings together a few more solid games then maybe Connolly will return to.

    Agree. The Eski was hot.

    It looks like they want to play him down the back, so where do we put Shaw? Hope it doesn't mean Smith gets pushed out.

    My first real chance to post since Saturday Night so my thoughts have probably been said one hundred times BUT werent Carlton ordinary. I mean for a team that had nine top ten draft picks in it, they looked a rabble and unless they find some forward options soon they are going to have a long season. I dont think they were missing that many names from their top squad yet they looked pretty bad and if our younger guys had really known how to push home the advantage in the latter part of the third term we could have slaughtered them.

    Kudos to Jetta and Rohan for their input . Jetta gave you the feeling that he could almost have a similar impact as rioli has had at the hawks. I thought Dennis lane tried hard but would benefit form being the third forward rather than the first and Sumner didnt seem to have any real impact .

    As to more established but more inexperienced guys, Currie still has a long, long way to go and I almost felt that Pykes positional play was better at times.

    Doesnt Grundy look good and really has started to build that strong backmen physique needed to handle the big men of the comp.

    McGlynn was good at times, Moore even looked more stocky than last year , I didnt see much of kennedy and all the usual suspects looked in good nick.

    Exciting times ahead but I feel that the saints willbe a much harder proposition than carlton and we might come thudding back to earth by sunday.

    Have wraps on Craig Bird as it is, but I thought he was good against the Blues. His ability to turn away from a pack and create space for himself was very good.
