Thomas has been one of our most consistent players this year...fully deserves his spot.

We might not win until round 16 at this rate. 

That's when we play Brisbane and we've got St. Kilda in round 17.

That's if we win at all.

I'd be sending Jack back, Jones has a limited life span imo, SOSOS is the obvious replacement down there. And if I see one more defender spoil one of ours who is trying to mark the aggott........

SOSOS is injured again.

We’re very unlucky and by my count we’ve got 7 of our preferred starting 18 missing due to injury, which makes it incredibly tough.

Murphy, Kreuzer, Docherty, Pickett, Weitering, Lang, Williamson to name a few. Plus Cunningham and Garlett should probably be in the seniors.

All makes a big difference if you’re able to replace OShea, Mullet, Rowe, Kerridge etc

This season has been an inperfect storm.
Injuries to key players., meaning we’re either forced to play half fit  players, or useless depth players like Kerridge, Mullett and O Shea.
Kids who previously  showed plenty all terribly out of form at the same time.
Jones not the same player.

Enough of the f'n excuses, the mistakes we make are worse than laughable....

These blokes come to Carlton with talent, ability and skill.

They leave broken and in pieces.....
Finals, then 4 in a row!

CH7 had a list of Bulldogs players out as well, given they had a younger team with 5 x players under 10 games it was a pitiful effort tonight and the club need a review on where we are at,
 and where we are heading.

Marchbank made Plowman look good tonight ????

Feck we’re terrible. Arguably the worst Friday night game played between two teams for a very long time.

100% agree with what everyone has been saying about team selection.....blind Freddy could see we were waaaaaaay too tall all over the ground, everyone except our esteemed MC. What the feck goes on in their meetings, they are repeat offenders already this year for poor team selections & we’re only @ round 6 ????

Geez I’m getting sick of this, I really am........
Football is life, there is nothing else....

If that's at the Gabby, history says we'll lose in embarrassing style :-[
I'm really not sure when or indeed if we'll win. The Dogs are less experienced and struggling this year. Yet they managed to make us look like a VFL side.

Unless we get 22 afl players in the one side matched to their opposition, and a whole lot of luck, I can't see us winning. That may happen when/if a few return from injury and a few others regain some form.
The upside is the youngsters get games together and we're favorite for the No. 1 pick.
We might even keep breaking the club record for consecutive LLLLLL's

I really hope we get a win soon. It will do wonders for our belief in the process.

Go Blues
Coming together is the beginning.
Keeping together is progress.
Working together is success.

Exactly.
People are screaming about the MC and Bolts.

There are not a hell of a lot of other options. Shaw maybe, but the wingers would grizzle about him too.

McCreadie hasn't done a lot this season either.
I agree with Cuningham and  Garlett. Both will be back this week I reckon.
I spent most of my money on Women and grog.
The rest I just wasted.

Dogs had 5 players who have played less than 10 games, we really need to stop with the excuses.

We have changed every player, changed every coach.
What remains the same? 
Same supporters watching the same crap football for almost 2 decades.
2024... Moir of the same to come

You're missing the point.

The Dogs are a short, quick team. Everyone in Victoria knows that, at least.

O'Shea was shockingly out of form. As a tall, with zip form, an obvious out.

We keep him in and drop two blokes who have some speed - and one who could have been the run out of defence we so sadly lacked - and we bring in another tall, Marchbank, short of a run and Kennedy who looked still injured or labouring for whatever reason.

Then tactically, our talls in defence all decide to jump at the ball at the same time.....

Two basic rules, which the match committee can't grasp:

1. too many talls playing at once will hurt you, especially against smaller opposition; and
2. don't play injured blokes or blokes with sub standard fitness.


Finals, then 4 in a row!
