Re: Three things you've learned-round 17 v Carlton.
Winning feels much, much, much better than that losing rubbish.
Lewis Young can play.
Watching footy in 25 degrees is much better than watching in the Melbourne winter.

3. Our forward line is really battling for cohesiveness & continuity. It really struck me today just how far it is from where I thought it could be this season personnel wise.
Especially intercept marks. You can rebound pretty quickly from them.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

The interpretation of holding the ball was different depending on if it was us or carlton. It was absolutely ridiculous. Since the north game we have been umpired differently. Media/coaching pressure has gotten to the umpires unfortunately.

It's nice when they take the bait.

Re: Three things you've learned-round 17 v Carlton.
1. Over many years watching AFL I thought that I had come to peace with the state of umpiring. I haven't.
2. Our list mangement of ruckmen is sub standard. I never want to see Marcus, Dunks, Lin etc being sacrificed the way they are.
3. Caleb is close to an untouchable.

One extra thing I learnt was that upsetting Bont is fraught with extreme danger .
Just ask that Furrito
