Three things you've learned-round 17 v Carlton.
Tell us three things you've learned from our game versus GWS seconds.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

Re: Three things you've learned-round 17 v Carlton.
1. I want Jake Lever - But I don't want to part with our SA boys from today if they're requested: Daniel, Williams & Young.
2. Running Tom Boyd into the ground, then Bonts into the ground rucking isn't how you treat Ferraris.
3. Lewis Young is a taller Easton Wood if today is anything to go by. I wonder if he can play forward?

Re: Three things you've learned-round 17 v Carlton.
1. I am confused by umpire's interpretation of HTB and many other decisions - AFL stop *!*!*!*!ing around with the rules
2. MCG needs to hand out free blankets
3. An injection of young players like Williams, Dale, Young, really boosts the team.

Re: Three things you've learned-round 17 v Carlton.
1 . The holding the ball interpretaion is just a dogs breakfast .Insufficent intent has also gone the way of the dodo bird
2. The recruiting from Simon Darymple has been superb
3. My god it was frigging freezing there today

Appropriate they were wearing orange sox . Great cause from them, little bit of irony though with Elliott's " we paid the shiela's off"from a few years ago

Re: Three things you've learned-round 17 v Carlton.
The HTB free kick against Picken in the second quarter was simply a disgrace. The umpiring improved as the game progressed but umpire 19 was atrocious as he was the umpire paying the ridiculous ones.
I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

Re: Three things you've learned-round 17 v Carlton.
1. The size of the MCG suits our handball game that extra metre enables our players to unlock some space around the contest and spread. Would of love to see Boyd/Cloke in for Honey and add Stringer and our forward line would have looked more dangerous.
2. Dale and Mclean continue to be beacons in what has been an average year so far.
3. A player that can intercept mark is worth there weight in gold. There was a fair bit of Craig Ellis in that performance today well done Young!

Re: Three things you've learned-round 17 v Carlton.
1. A win is a win, but gee it would've been nice to say we'd come away with a resounding mojo boosting win. Not quite, just baby steps.
2. Lewis Young...Jake Lever...who's he and why do we need him again?? But seriously..a great composed debut. Really looked like he is ready for this level.
3. Umpires favourites...??? What a joke. We've copped some real shockers over the last few weeks. I really hope its got nothing to do with some teams bleating to the Umps.

Re: Three things you've learned-round 17 v Carlton.
1. The injection of Young and Williams was long overdue.
2. Our indifferent forward line remains a problem.
3. Hard to believe we do not request more games at the "G" rather than the Ballarat experiment.

Re: Three things you've learned-round 17 v Carlton.
1, Lewis Young is the best pick of the 2016 draft
2. Lewis Young is our best pick of the 2016 draft
3. Sorry what?

Re: Three things you've learned-round 17 v Carlton.
1. A good debut from a young fella can really turn around a sad footy mood. Lewis lifted my spirits today and added some joy to the game from a fan's perspective.
2. Marks are incredibly important. Young and Roughie took plenty today and it made a difference.
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.
