Have been dormant for a while guys but have emerged..haha! Best players award should be lock down mid season award already…The Carlton Marketing Dept absolute all stars…They suck us in every year with the pumped up tripe…look what we are cooking…etc etc…….. 80/90k ? Yet why are half the Baggers walking out at 3/4 time… Because everyone is and had a gutful of this mediocity and false promises….go have a look at Blue Heaven…he’s out of words…thats good for him..hope u noticed Pres Sayers?
We picked a very poor coach sorry…he failed at Lions cos he played early 2000’s tough footy and a 3 peat and thought that was the std formula to win >>>his game mode is so outdated its laughable…no change Charlie up the ground when his full back killed him?…swap him with Harry surely? Give him space and put Payne out of his short career comfort zone( by the way he was equal BOG keeping a bloke off 9 to 1……impressed! He can play)
Our friggin smalls are soo insipid c/w…their 2.. Charlie and Bailey 7/8 between them v 2/3 from us…they can play(both AS smalls but our running patterns are pathetic….sit under the talls and bring defenders in so Chaz and H have to take a mark in Bourke St Mall its so screwed like U/14 footy…Josh Honey really 5 touches…aaargh 1 shot and of course missed
Surely they have to stretch out both flanks..create scoring options and than hit the contest at pace for the ball drop form the 2 talls…101 footy….. its so frustrating
Sorry Jack…glad u got 100 games but times up… so slow and misses so many 1 grabbers and kicking skills really? 15 m the other night get real How we going with Jack Martins 600k a year? He has the skill to be a third tall risk like the 5 v Richmond when he first played….sorry about the chasing…but he can hurt the oppo when switched on ….Owies can get 3/4…I dont rate the others…Motlop will grow into it… but is Hansen our fwd coach? Holly screw
Never ever going to Marvel again v the Saints...they always kick our arse and that flog Membrey always kicks 4/5. Ryder always walks all over us has since Essendon,Port Days
WTF they kicked 3 goals last week and we make them look like top 4...disgusting loss
Sinclair and Hill 35 plus. each..destroyed us..Voss said he got the Rock Lobster Cotrell to try shut down Sinclair....nada
Missed 3 set shots 35-40m straight out Charlie,Hewitt and TDK......
LOB kicks a lollipo 30m pass midfield that gets picked off goal to Saints
Bad games from Cerra and Hewitt..Walshy had little impact....a really crapty loss and coppin crap from Saints mates....aaaargh!
I reckon we crawl into 7/8 finish...all the glow from Freo win washed down the dunny.....no certs v Weagles next week as well
Zac Williams 800k a year cant kick left foot....thats crap don't care if he got 36 touches turned it over plenty Jack Martin 600k a year plays as soft as butter and can't convert..
Touk Miller killed us last year...ever thought about a run with tagger? Ed Curnow should have played...Kennedy not a run with and took away from his great 30 plus possie start first 3 games. De Boeur shut him down last week Vossy..we have to respect dangerous opposition players..Witts one of the best tap rucks in the comp...De Konnig rag dolled and Jack going up in the ruck? spare me..Pittonet was huge out...have to bung the Old Ivanhoe kid Mirkov in...we cant get monstered in the ruck like that every week
That was an appalling loss.....time to regroup...wasn't just the Crippa hammy that derailed us....plenty of issues Charlie C and H had shockers and we missed Durdin big time

Liked Kemp Durdin is going to be an asset runs and chases hard..
Markov has promise but a few years away
Charlie was a bit outnumbered but made some nice leads and was honoured a few times
I hope someone gets hold of him and stops that Buddy run around hook foot shot at goal...one shank and two sliced misses.... that I saw Zav Rocca gone but goalkicking is so crucial...do we have a new goalkicking coach?
we get spooked because they've knocked off some flag favourites? give me a break... that's exactly why we sit where we are and have for 15 years.....mentality is that we put in honourable efforts and scare a few top teams like Dogs etc for 2/3 quarters and drop our bundles..but gets a pass
Not good enough..want another 10 years of this?....Changes must be made!
Slowly getting the blood pressure down after another apoplectic experience watching "Teagues Teasers" destroy our blind faith again...he is clueless.....Buddy is on and has destroyed Jonesy before.....switch early to Weiters
We keep allowing Levi to try and make short passes...friggin HB or belt it long...better still not be selected
38% kicking efficiecny Q2...cant hit the side of the barn from 20-30m..do we actually practice our kicking skills at training or we just recruit crap kicks as a matter of practice
Newman kicks 2 lollipop passes into the middle and both intercepted and goals against
Heeney torched us again...any thoughts on switching his man..agreed tough matchup as he plays tall/small but try something!
Crippa played great but his turnovers are killing us...underground HB to Curnow of all people....goal against
Docherty's a worry that fresh air kick in defense =another goal
Setterfield too loose in defence in chasing Kennedy down= another goal
RED TIME GOALS...I reckon we have worst record in AFL for goals scored in last 5 mins of every QTr.....I can't watch it have to go outside ground or home cos we cough up plenty time in time out
Coaching panel...can anyone tell me how John Barker still sits in the coaching box and draws a paycheck for the last 10 years? Adds nought
Guess Ill get bagged for being Mr Negative ...but I'm soo over this!
Maybe bring some old school winning tough nut culture back into the rooms when we don't take competitive losses as a pass mark or am I being to old school dinosaur and not new age? maybe might hurt a few sensitive woke feelings sorry......
Teague sucks...over his namby pamby pressers...beat us everywhere good coaching..must get better at the contest...so useless
our ball use was poor.....hello..we have sucked all year...no skills ..we must grow and learn...wtf u been doing for 16 months?
We are so over this crap poor coaching and nice guy approach....weak assist coaches like Barker useless 10 years ..get McClure involved and some hard nut Carlton 80/90s flag legends involved
Can anyone tell how many of SOSs 11/12 GWS retreads have got 100 games up?
I thought Marchbank was our best steal but missed almost 2 years with a bad back
Setters,Kennedy,Somers,Marchie,Plowman and all
Can anyone tell Harry M that if you want to shop yourself for 800k next year you have to go harder on May and not try and take a chest mark in a contested mark in a pack?
Teague must go midseason... Bolton mk2 nice guy dud clueless mid game......
"I still believe in this playing group" sure we don't when your guys keep serving up hot steaming turds of performance!
he was the g General directing traffic and filling in when needed... I disagree .....would have been barking hard at our loose kick chasing HB's inc the Doc,Willo and even Saad for not manning up
Look what Hodge did for Lions for 2 years...that role needs a 250 game plus wise head back there...we had one and retired him off too early
posted on the old post game thread v Dogs...god we miss Simmo
could have got him easy for another year cheap and durable.....saving goals on the line directing traffic and going in fearlessly for marks in the hole v big fwds Newman meant to be the replacement big shoes to fill
Obvious....retired off the backline General too soon
Should have kept Simmo on the books......durable and would have gone around again willingly again for 150-200k instead pay that muppett Williams 800k p/year for 5 years?
Plain as the nose on your face...I went to the praccy match v Saints at Etihad where they torched us for 7 goals first qtr...probably 4/5 over the back and thought we are going to leak goals all year..how many games in his glittering career has he saved us us last man on the line or filled the hole in front of big forwards fearlessly. With Newman meant to be the replacement in that role and out for first 8 games surely they could have found a spot for him.
