Kemps kicking is actually laughable. How a professional forward who trains 5 days or more a week can shank so many consecutive shots is unbelievable.

Big game for Ison in the 2's tomorrow. If he can put on another better than average performance, I'd bring him in and move Kemp to the backline to replace Haynes. He has plenty of confidence in his marking and general play etc and Weitering has publicly said the he loves playing with Kemp next to him. Ison has good hand, a touch of mongrel and can kick straight!

Pitto has been, of all the rucks in the comp, crucified by the rule changes...throw it up straight or f the rule off.

The umpire who throws the ball up should not adjudicate on free kicks for crossing the line because he/she is generally too close (and running backwards) to see what has transpired and whether any significant interference has occurred.  There are 4 field umpires so the extra one in the centre square should be responsible for ruck infringements.

Saad is done and should finish the year in the 2nds 

Cripps and walsh gave their all

new recruits all played well.

not sure loins went flat out but at least good to see some run and transition and forwards leading to space whoch opened scoring opportunities.

still a loss is a loss and we are 1 win from
9 games so horrible season to this point.

I was reading a piece on Robert Louis Stevenson earlier tonight.
He wrote a book about Carlton's 2026 season.
"Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde" :D

'Turning point' or an 'abberation.'
A 'one off' or a 'new beginning.'

.The important thing is that we don't drop back and produce some insipid performance next week.
Consistency and four quarter effort and the results will come.
And the players, and Voss can make it just that little bit harder for the decision makers.

Looks like we've picked up a few injuries...Walsh, Florent and Williams.





Williams no great loss, he looks cooked
