Re: AFL Rd 8 2023 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs Brisbane
Reply #60 –
1. After sitting through the Adelaide Oval Crows debacle I mentioned the old football coaches cry "pick up your man!
When CFC kick out after point score, other teams man us up and put us straight under pressure. We often allowed Brisbane to easily kick short to a player. We did have the same number of players, didn't we?
2. Witches hats when Brisbane had the ball and heading deep into their forward line. Yes our guys do the right and run down there, but then some (like Motlop) seem to be mesmerised, just stand there and don't man up.
Plenty of effort at times , but not well directed.

I noted that they went man on man at our kicks more often than zone. We didn't know what to do and couldn't pin point a Carlton jumper who managed to get a meter away from his opponent. I feel like a broken record this morning.
