I tend to include angst in the titles: I worry about a game until it is over.
I hope we will win, but I doubt it at this point. No Kreuzer.
However, this of you who can get to the game (those working at it), and those of you with Fox or Kayo, enjoy.
Car'n the Blues!
Game over
Nothings changed, welcome to Carlton David.
10 inside 50s to nil
Disposal by us is just deplorable.
Ruck and Midfield absolutely slaughtered.
Gawn just allowed to push in the back.
Ive seen enuff
No leadership. Murphy, Simpson need to go.
Wow is Seton a hack. My God, another top ten craft pick down the crapter. The crapness of this club knows no bounds... ::)
I think we need a rebuild :(
I've read on here 1000 times over than one of the cardinal sins a coach can commit is to not be able to get the players up before the match - Bolton was slammed for this repeatedly. This is now the second game in a row where we've done bugger all in the 1st q.
Them, hard and strong... came ready to play. Us, trying to finesse, looking for the easy way out.
Our midfield is clueless on how to rove to a losing ruck.
Embarrassing
Newman in trouble.
We are not ready to play.
Hope they all wake from their slumber sooner rather than later. Otherwise it's the same too little too late sh%&
What time does the footy start? ::)
Thinking about next week :o :o :o
Disposal is king, we cannot hit the side of a barn, no composure, hack kicks. And dont give me that farken its the second game crap, everyone else seems to be switched on. I wont watch another game for a long time.
This club is just the industry joke now. 10 weeks off and still not one of them can hit a target or play to a system.
You couldn't script this shyte. How can a club screw up every early draft pick. We must have a hit rate of around 20% and of the 20%, only 2% you could honestly say they're A Grade...
F'n joke...
As many have said, we need a A grade Ruckman. Poor recruiting has killed us.
Teague will have no hair by round 4...
Nic Newman patella tendon injury.
No goals but there's a pulse - barely.

Its not through lack of trying.
Pittonet getting probably the hardest 1st up hitout anyone could have.
Can't blame him.....he is trying.
Plenty of others are not even doing that.
Langs falling at the feet of the players instead of picking up the ball stands out.
a score !!!! finally
We are entering 'farce' territory.
Like the players have no interest anymore!
I had a chuckle at Dwayne's comment "Carlton needs a safe word!"
Its funny because its true. :'(
Cripps no touches so far this q.
Absolutely no mongrel, no hardness, no desperation. Dare I say we look soft... and dumb, just zero footy smarts.
GASTRO.....
I know this is giving me the sh&*
Goal - progress.
Almost 2q and we get our first goal 😊😫😖
I hope cunners can stay fit.
A lot of talent in the kid. Just needs a consistent run at it.
More I50's this q so far, and started to win a few clearances. Hope.
Lang has a better result when he attempts a snap when nobody is around him.
His first effort he was too scared to make contact with the ball!
And an unlikely character with our 2nd!
What's worse for Seton, not only has he been aiming to take over Gibbs' mantle of the lacksadasicle turn over merchant, but he can't kick over a jam tin.
How do you manage that? Surely you have one or the other, can't kick straight but can roost it a mile. Seton, no vision, can't kick, can't hit target. Wow! And the coaching staff have him off half back setting up play. Lord help me.
Well done Carlton recruiters, another awesome high draft pick.
what did we give up to get Mitch McGovern again
2 disposals till half time, has he ever played a decent game for us?

Ship him off to play with his brother for a cardboard cut out of Gaff.

Lang and scared - bit of a pattern there for mine. Id like him to create more outside opportunity where he can rely on speed and skill rather than strength. In fact, we are (clumsiness, inaccuracies aside) lacking strength inside.... but what's new 😉
I hope cunners can stay fit.

Agree - He can find a small space, doesn’t panic, has a nice burst and accurate near goals - just needs to get it more.
Midfield is not AFL standard and again the lack of support and back up for Cripps is there for all to see.
Said it countless times hold Cripps and we are done.
Well, there is a second half. But things are looking far too much like the last time Kreuzer went down in Round 1. :'( :'(
I guess it is a good thing that I cannot see a moment of the game: my blood pressure won't get so high!
Do you think we'll adapt to the ruck dominance 2nd half?
It was painful watching Gawn give his strong mids silver service while our mids were one step behind 😫
mcgoven what a spud

Bad miss. He's had a lousy game.

enough of this jobs for the boys crap then it doesnt work
Very nice Martin and nice check side by Levi- getting cocky in his dotage.

Yep.
whoever is the skills coach at carlton should be fired
Very peculiar these games where teams post 80-90% of their total in the first q and then just stop.
Geez if that's all we've got against an average side, even a short season will seem like an eternity 😥
C'mon Blues
That was better. McGovern off HB and goal Gibbons
Edging closer.
Great running Martin to Eddie i50
Pittonet got a football lesson early on...but he's shown some character the way he's stuck at it.
That;s the kind of stuff that wins fans over.
Momentum and form is definitely with us now.
Poised Murph and easy finish for Eddie
Go Blues
Demons have no answers. We could win this easily.
Cripps - come on man, captains goal.
Cripps' kryptonite. Using his foot to propel the ball through the uprights!
Take 2.
.......GOAL!
Poised from Murph then Cunners gives Crippa 2 shots
1 point. Demons have the backbone of a sea cucumber. Terrible after the first. Should have won this game easily.
scores level.
C@nts can't kick. screwin chokers
1 point loss, and 4 more scoring shots.
disposals let us down again, we couldnt hit the side of a barn, didnt deserve to win that.
I hate seeing players laughing and smiling after a game like that!! Make it hurt!!!
1 point. Demons have the backbone of a sea cucumber. Terrible after the first. Should have won this game easily.
Should could would.
Lost again.
Another 0/3 start coming after next week.
Another bottom 2-3 finish on its way.
2.6 from set shots putrid
Those lame 1st quarters are a real worry.
8 6 wins over 7 11, and we only played 3q 😖
Fix up the q1 stall. PLEASE
Those lame 1st quarters are a real worry.
Have we won a first quarter under Teague?
Should could would.
Lost again.
Another 0/3 start coming after next week.

Take your point, but I meant the Dees should have won easily.
Have we won a first quarter under Teague?
Not sure.
Why is Gawn allowed to hold in the ruck but if you put a finger on him it's a free?
Have we won a first quarter under Teague?
when was the last time we actually won a 1st quarter
Why is Gawn allowed to hold in the ruck but if you put a finger on him it's a free?
I noticed him completely wrap his arms around Pittonet and throw him out of the way at least twice. Yet he got free kicks in the ruck for something i was unable to detect.
I think thats 'star factor'.
Judd got it.
Murphy used to get it.
Cripps gets it.
Amazing what happens when you 'turn up.'
Gave a very ordinary side a 7 goal head start and lost by a point.
Who's next? That's right... oh dear!
when was the last time we actually won a 1st quarter
I just checked - under Teague, we've lost all first q except Suns, Eagles, Crows, and we tied with the Swans.
Additionally, the problem is when we lose the 1st q, it's minimum 3 or 4 goals, sometimes more. So it's a big issue IMO.
