Are you sure you know what moment I'm talking about?
Was Cowan, not McGovern.
Partially.
Does that make us dumber than port?
It depends.
Look at Jagga's reaction to Saturday night. The kid was in tears after the game. As it is playing for carlton is hard work. Its harder work when you arent winning.
We need to breed a winners mentality and that means forgoing the extra draft pick, and taking the hit. Tanking will not get us anywhere because our team is far too fragile to be conditional.
What we should be doing, is absolutely flogging everyone at training, so that way we lose because we arent good enough yet, and condition them to be fitter and stronger in the process.
I've walked the road saying "They were appointed, they MUST know what theyre doing"
I no longer have the confidence or foolishness to believe that...
https://www.facebook.com/reel/1663578398096635Got some swagger about him this kid.
I agree with townsendcalling around moving Kemp into the backline. His kicking for goal reached a new level on Friday, and not in a good way. Think this will completely shatter his confidence, so swing him back for a bit to hopefully get some back. I'd probably drop Wilson, unfortunately. Very disappointed in his game. Same with Saad. Shouldn't have been picked in the first place.
Give Ison OR Moir a run as I don't think we can afford to play both.
I am still struggling to get my head around how this team can play 7-8 weeks of utter sh1te and look like a basketcase so badly.
Next thing we see is against the reigning premiers, once again, play like a totally incompetent busted butthole in the first half and then magically transform into near worldbeaters in the second half and nearly pinch it from them.
What did they drink, smoke or inject in the rooms at halftime ??
What pixie dust did they have sprinkled on them ??
What did Voss do or say that completely changed their mindset and application so dramatically ??
The other big question now has to be, was this a one off 'flash in the pan' or will the raised standards continue for the remainder of the season ??
Not wanting to be a wet blanket but... Or to what degree did Brisvegas ease up, even just a little?
Of course it doesn't, and physically and mentally not every player is going to be like that... I was trying in a round about way to say we need more in the team to show that kind of passion and pride in playing for the CFC jumper - which seems to be lacking with some of the more senior players, at least for a full four quarters......... and when that happens it becomes a team pandemic unfortunately; as we see on a weekly basis. Don't worry, Dean will have the Carlton Way hammered into him in the next few months..
To give but one example : pushing a guy into the fence, then apologizing, then as result giving away a free kick from the goal square, so effectively two goals within seconds to the opposition - this is your idea of showing "passion and pride in playing for the CFC jumper'?
To say nothing of the fact that he is likely to be rubbed out for a time.
