The moment, the best, most courageous moment that caught your eye in tonight's round 2 match against Carlton. Was it the moment that told you 'we've got this' or 'we lost this one right here'? Or was it the moment that you went 'wow....that is crazy courage.

The Hannan miss would have really tightened the screws but Carlton seemed to have an answer all night anyway.

Dunks taking Marra’s mark in the last quarter and inevitably butchering the set shot was also annoying.

Curnow slotting a goal from the boundary after getting a free that should have been holding the ball.
From that moment is was just going to be their night

Both infuriating and exactly the two I would go with.

Dunks has such an inflated sense of self, but really, he should be a mark and handball player and leave those opportunities for others if he can (which he could, but selfishly chose not to).

If you recall Patty Cripps dragged English down in the marking contest on the wing prior to that play I think, which was a clear instance of pulling down the arms......but it was funny according to the commentators, because it resulted in a falcon. Yay!

Yeah I’m going with Curnow throwing it to himself, dropping it and getting a free for holding the man. We’re also gonna hear all week about how the Bulldogs “had their chances” but probably not about how two of the shots should’ve been from the back of the goalsquare with obvious 50s missed.

Bont also got smashed in a marking contest deep in our forward line that was missed. Just a shit night all round.

That one was insanity. Two of them ran straight into him.

I didn't have a problem with the body contact from one of them coming in from the side, but the other one just ran straight at him from the front. WTF.

One of the worst decisions ever, that was incorrect disposal if I have ever seen one. The goal also steadied them and made it just that bit harder to bridge the gap.

I got into a heated argument with a Carlton supporter about this one... he said Curnow didn't have possession of the ball so he couldn't be tackled... WTF!

I think Curnow laughing about it when it happened and afterwards was probably enough evidence to show it was BS.

Watching the telecast though, it was a free every day of the week. Because they said so.

Naughton hitting the post spelt, 'This is going to be one of those games' for me.

Naughton and Hannan misses.

Cody handballs instead of snapping.

Dunkley misses from in front.

But THE moment was prob the first goal. Easy goal. You just knew there was more to follow.

A few times last night Carlton players, in possession of the ball, just juggled it to themselves or blatantly threw it up to themselves while continuing to bust through and we got pinged for holding the man. At least three occasions and the Curnow one stands out as a real tough pill to swallow in what ended up being a close scoreboard.
