Its not a skill issue. But can still be a consequence of poor skill.

How many times do you see us on a fast break, deliver forward, straight to the opposition.
Players drop their heads, opposition run it back for a goal. Players drop their heads more.

Instead of that 'captains goal' type lift that give you a boost, we are constantly let down instead.

A Harry miss.
A Florent turnover.
A Walsh holding the ball.

It saps the guys of energy and desire.


Pressure rating gives an indication of effort. The fact we have haven't once got a better pressure rating better than the opposition is indicative. Not side side full of real effect. More like someone has lost his players, especially his leaders. Weitering pretty well intimated that during the week.

I don't know about you Jimbo, but if i'm paid to do a job, i'm doing that job. Even if 'the boss' is the worst person in the world, i have enough self-respect to do the job for myself.

These players are paid VERY well, and if they can't get themselves up for a game or can't find it within themselves to give a $h!t, then those players are the wrong players, regardless of who is coaching them.

Especially Weitering as VC.

I was very much against trading away Weitering, but given the last 24 hours of his comments and his efforts tonight, i might very well offer my services to drive him to a club of the highest bidder.

"Carlton's pressure rating of 152 against St Kilda was its lowest of the season, but that's no surprise. The Blues are the only team in the AFL yet to have a single game this year where they've recorded a higher pressure rating than their opposition."
