Kruddler trying to justify why we should be losing to the bottom side isn't doing the coach any favours.

I don't know if i have a Crystal ball that nobody else seems to have, but i've been pretty bang on with what games we are going to win and what games we are going to lose. I was warning everybody that this was not the game everyone thought it was going to be and said why.

Nobody wanted to listen to logic.

Instead, they prefer their torches and pitchforks because we are Carlton and we make irrational decisions!



edit: and its not that we SHOULD be losing, its that its far more likely than anyone wants to believe.

To what do you attribute this lack of effort ?

How many times do you run into a wall before you lose confidence in your ability to get past it?

They're winning the ball. We haven't laid a tackle for a quarter. No excuses for that IMO

Playing Weitering forward is why Plowman is forced to play above his height. Has to play in front because he has no hope of spoiling from behind. Jonno Brown should understand that rather than continuing to whack Plowman.

Can't play on talls, can't play on smalls, can't play on gun medium forwards. Maybe he just isn't that good?

Slumped back, with vengeance, to our old ways... totally unmotivated group. Sharp coaching from Kangabies to address our weaknesses and hit 'em hard, chief among them - relentless pressure.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

Name the last player he played on that there wasn't a 3" height difference one way or another!

Maybe we should ask the opposition to play a good match up for him each week.

As i predicted pre-game though, look at where we are generally forced to take our shots from?
Boundary line or on the 50.

They are sitting their talls in the hotspot and we don't have any talls to compete in the air, so we are forced wide as a result.

If we had anyone better, they'd be in the team.

What has Willo done all game?
