    Treloar’s goal from the boundary was the best moment.
    Naughton’s strong mark in the square when we were starting to muscle our way back in was the moment I thought we’d salvage this one.

    Treloar's goal was amazing.

    My (fav) moment was Keath's mark on the wing. It was superb!

    Have to give it to Bont. Where last week his miss felt like where it all fell apart, when he kicked it this week it felt like he got us back on track and I felt much less anxious about the game even though it was still completely up for grabs

    I rewatched the game and as sweet as it was I did not feel as if the game was swung by it. I really didn’t feel comfortable until we actually hit the front, especially after Bruce one and only miss for the day down 3.

    It was indeed a moment where Naughton said I'm down but not out!

    A shit moment was when Bruce's goal was overturned. I get it was a line ball call by the goal umpire but how the "arc" could overturn that from the available video evidence was borderline cheating.

    I agree, that ball was pretty high in the air - do they have camera's shooting up the goal posts?

    Not quite.. Eddie kicked his 5th and then Silvagni, McKay & Williams missed very gettable chances before we went on our run of 8 in a row.

    Both Silvagni and Williams should've nailed their chances and if they did I doubt we were coming back from 5+ goals... Carlton supporters are slaying their $800k a season man for not making the distance from 40m which is beautiful!

    Yep... I mean maybe it was right but who knows. The technology isn't suitable for that kind of determination. And at the end of the day someone in a room made a 50/50 call, just as the goal umpire had to, only they pretended that technology provided definitive evidence to back up their call... really poor decision.

    I was watching Bruce's reaction and he didn't celebrate when the ball went through, which he usually does, so I wasn't surprised when the decision was reversed, but I haven't seen the footage which as per the discussion is inconclusive.

    Yeah Bruce didnt celebrate at all and even after the goal was given he seemed like he knew it would be overturned.

    Every commentator said straight away that it was a point and maintained that stance during the review.

    Irrespective of whether Bruce celebrated or whether the commentators thought it was a goal or point, you can't use long range vision to definitively make that call. It's madness that they'd try to with a straight face. All you need to do is look at how the logos are painted on the grounds to see how silly it is.
    Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

    That critical win in the middle that led to Hunter getting the ball and kicking to Bruce for his 4th just before 3q time. Signalled that a switch had been flicked.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.
