Re: Post Game Pain: Carlton vs Port Adelaide
Reply #88 –
I dont think Daisy's leadership would have had much effect last night.....he would have been under the pump chasing Port Ar$e all evening and would have offered little in terms of direction etc. We needed a big like Jonothan Brown to lead us into battle and rally the troops....some one our kids like Holman , Johnson etc could know they could count on Brown to deliver the big plays and lead from the front. Murphy tries but lacks support and gets targetted himself ,our kids got intimidated, panicked, lose focus and we lost our nerve at times, game plans go out the door when you are rattled....Daisy wasnt going to fix any of that.
There was an opportunity to change the game Friday night and it was not taken. When Murph turned it over and then got knocked over by a PA player, WW3 should have started by our blokes running in from everywhere. A few PA players would have been sat on there asses and perhaps changes their attitude abit. Instead, they intimidated us all night and the game was over.
