Re: Bankers And Anchors - Round 22, 2018 vs Carlton
Bankers:
1. Crozier - really good 2nd half of the year.
2. JJ's running great to see and kicked a good goal in the final term.
3. Dunkley been very good in recent weeks
Anchors:
1. Our efficiency in the forward 50. Needs to be better.
2. Nearly losing against the bottom side thank goodness we got the points.
3. The bottle thrower. Not good. Don't want to see that.

Re: Bankers And Anchors - Round 22, 2018 vs Carlton
1. Dunkley, he's been a shining light in the second half of the season
2. Richards. Every time he got the ball Eddie would scowl. I like Eddie but it feels good to get pinch another one of theirs (they must spew everytime Marcus Picken takes a hanger or kicks a premiership sealing goal. It would have been like Jayden Foster starring and winning premierships at Carlton, or Tom DeKoning!)
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

Re: Bankers And Anchors - Round 22, 2018 vs Carlton
Bankers:
Dunkley - huge work inside. Should have really put a stamp on his game converting in front of goal - but led the with his clearance work, smothers, tackling etc etc.
Trengove - thought he was excellent - big clearance game and got involved around the ground all game.
Macrae’s Last quarter - really lifted in the last quarter. Gee he runs out a game.
Anchors:
Lynch - just isn’t getting involved enough the last few weeks.
Dicko - 2nd up off a spell he struggled. Wasn’t his day.
Not playing to the same standard as the majority of the previous two weeks.

I prefer to think of the incident as a thoughtful Carlton fan offering Daisy a drink.

Sure, but people with various types of disability do often engage in behaviours that most wouldn't engage in.

throwing a bottle or another missile at a player by anyone is inexcusable and not justifiable, feel free to defend it.

True, but, if the person has some sort of disability, you may want to think about some sympathy towards them.

There's an enormous difference between giving mitigating circumstances and excusing or justifying actions.
Just as there is an enormous difference between being empathic and sanctimonious.

Then I assume you surely must know what the mitigation, excuse and justification was.

Indeed, walk a mile in someone's shoes.
