Carlton Supporters Club

Yep - very disappointing to see them reverting back to some bad habits last night.

I really want to believe that we've turned a corner. The boys are making that extremely difficult to believe after last night's effort.

Love your work mate but I thought Gibbs first two chances to win the ball showed where the team's mindset was last night, simply did not want it.

Senior players need to be held accountable, Carrazzo, Judd, Gibbs, Murphy (until injured), Simpson, Yarran, Curnow, these blokes all stunk it up badly. Yarran especially took two steps back tonight, just did not want to be out there and that is just so disappointing.

Rowe deserves a medal, I criticised him a little last week saying a mans gots to know his limitations but he was just awesome. We could have lost by 150 points without him. Not really sure who else I can give votes to TBH.

The only thing to consider is that we played the last 40 minutes of last week with one fit player on the bench so I guess we were a little flat. I can accept this as long as we do our best to derail the scum next week.

Tonight was an opportunity for a lot of players to stand up and prove themselves but wow were we terrible!
At least I can happily get over the fact that players like Lucas and a lot of others are gone and be happy they are because they lack ticker and desire. We have a lot of players who cant make an impact. I cant believe players can sit there and watch Murphy get belted from pillar to post and not one player flew the flag in any way again. Without alot of list changes we will finish bottom 4 next year again we have too many players who can run with players but heaven help us if they win the ball they are counter productive.
I have only posted once before and was shot down in flames when I said Gibbs should be captain and I tell you now and I don't have the privilege of being able to go to every game but he is by far our best option and our best player not to mention someone who gives a crap about the club.

I guess I fell for the false hope that we have turned the corner

This is the start of 2105...

OMG if we play Menzel gain this year and he wrecks his shoulder and misses the preseason I think I will disown the club. We need to start preparing for next season and that means giving a bloke like Holman a crack in the big league and giving Menz a rest.

Let me get my thoughts together...
When the frig is this frigging club going to go to the afl and abuse the umpiring system. How many frigging games do we lose because of those green maggots?
Any 50/50 decision when the heat is on always goes against us. As a club we always cop it on the chin, well frig em, enough is enough.
I mean that fair bump Rowe did on Softwood, WTF?
Time for MM to come out with guns blazing or even this could be the first job of Triggy.
Carlton played well, Geelong played for frees and the umps just umpired friggin crape again.

Thats the problem, I reckon MM goes to em all guns blazing more often than we know. And they react each following week by getting the dirty pineapple and gently inserting it where the sun doesn't shine. I reckon our Club needs to STFU and get on with it. Its like players pointing to the screen asking the umpire to have another look. They never do and never change a decision so why waste the oxygen? Focus on the next passage of play and your immediate opponent.

I'm sorry but that is bull, we have for soooo long now just towed the line and been the alfs little yes club. We have created no waves and have taken whatever comes our way, we'll no more!
We are sitting 13th and will always be there abouts because are now a spineless club that is meek.
How many games or finals have been spoken about on here complaint about the what if umpiring decisions.
As a club we need to ask why does it CONTINUALLY happen?
