I seriously hope we don't play the kids.

Imagine being exposed to the game style if this stupid old man .

It could ruin some handy players.

Is he contracted next week?

The real culprit is Hughes.  Our recruitment has been dreadful.  Watson.  Lucas.  Two wasted first round draft picks.  And them there's the Marcus Davies of this world.  And then there's the recycled players who have been rubbish for us like Robbie the Robot.  It's been a train wreck for a number of years.

Yep...couldnt agree more and it will be a 3-5 year turn around when you are starting from rock bottom...

Port were able to turn it around quite quickly. That's what we have to hope for

Ok, seems for one final time the lesson has been learnt. Once coaches start pushing 60 they can't keep up with the game anymore. Malthouse, Sheedy, Matthews etc.... were great coaches, could re-invent themselves many times but as they get to a certain point in time of life they can't change, keep up or adjust to the list they have. Quite a few times MM has chucked the game plan out the window  at half time only to turn things around. If only he'd learn from that and do it every week from the start. Like it was only recent he won a flag,  just missed a second time and making Buckley look 2nd rate at Collingwood. Why do we get them when they're past it.

Anyway, time to use Cripps, Giles, Graham, Holman as well  as continuing with Buckley, Menzel etc..Nearly all a physically strong enough to play seniors. Being young they might be inconsistent, get tired as the season goes but it's often surprising how it often freshens a list and give it some life. Can give them a break in the twos occasionally if  they need a rest.

It's amazing what a difference a great coach makes.
Ignorance is bliss.

ONWARDS AND UPWARDS!

There's a bloke taking 100 contested marks in the 2s (Casboult), two ball magnets (Graham and Cripps), a developing CHB (Giles) and an experienced HB (Scotland) - we need to make some changes and let's just see what happens. Menzel was one of few showing some intensity.

That's all fine, but name your team from the back line.

Start by naming the coach?

100% agree with this. Gibbs came to Carlton as the best attacking midfielder in the land and Pago turned him into a back pocket

Especially when he's got some half decent players at his disposal.
Reality always wins in the end.

Maybe we should give Guus Hiddink a call

I'm neither for or against MM as coach. The fact is he is the coach and yet the same deadcrape players we have keep putting in the same lame performances. The players should take the bulk of the blame for this game.

How the f**k could we have thumped this mob by 98 odd pts 3 years ago and then simply watched them go past us?

What the fk has happened to our disposal ???? We were never great by either hand or foot but FFS, tonight was diabolical!

Whats so special about Carrazzo that he gets a gig in the 1st's after so long out of the game? His touch was simply f..ing awful and it isnt any wonder either.

Touhy needs a spell. Curnow needs a spell. Rowe was better this week but that wasnt that hard really!. get casboult in there FFS. Waite did 3/5ths of feck all and Garlett.......you can feck off too.

Jesus, if we dropped the players who deserved it to night, we'd almost have a new 22 next week.

I barrick for our jumper. Very few who wore it tonight deserved that honor.
Too little and Way too late. Pull your fingers out boys!!
