I'll be at the game. Have a great night, guys.
Fwd line not looking very sharp yet
Viney gets a free kick for dangerous tackle. Ch7 trying to dob Cripps in my God.
Clever kick sos
Nice work from TDK against Gawn. Harry!!!!
Well done H 👏🏼
Perfect shot at goal for Harry there.
Didn't matter if he missed it from such a slight angle, but talented enough to make it look easy.
Hopefully thats the jumpstart to his confidence that he needed.
That's the fwd pressure
Need to end this Jack ruck experiment.
FFS tidy up that forward line and get a little structure in there.
Bombing it in isn't helping but it's a dog's breakfast.
Backline looks real shaky
Same old. No scoreboard pressure
Other sides are just better at disposing in tackle than we are.
We are gun shy is sticking a solid tackle....we keep getting reported for them.
Other sides are just better.
Yep. Melbourne just look like a better team than us so far. We are trying very hard, plenty of endeavour, but just lack that polish.
Sadly we are trying. Just a middle tier side at best.
H held
Kick and hope
Looks like its unravelling
Say what you want about sticking together, our tactical game is rubbish.
8 free kicks to 3 show they are playing harder than us.
Lucky they are inaccurate
Please not another 1 goal half 😪
Spargo staged into Saad's hand lol.
We have no x factor
At last H free
Flat boring pedestrian stagnant.
Lost all flair and excitement.
Melbourne are doing what Collingwood did, they hold all the time knowing the umpire is not going to pay all of them.
Obrien is never ever ever going to amount to anything. Sub him. Give Dow a go.
Acres is not a very good kick :(
Not having a good game so far.
Just quietly....
Melbourne aren't a great side either. ::)
Started this season looking like a great pick up, but like most others has just lost his way.
Sos injured
Lucky we have dead-eye Harry otherwise we'd have nothing....lol.
Harry this is a drop punt
We are in this game
He's turning it around.....
Plenty of players couldn't play worse.
We certainly are consistent.
LOB, Young and Acres have been liabilities.
Yet our club has scored 2 goals till half time against them.
What is going on!!!
I've been a bit of a fan of Cottrell...but is he playing.
Team sheet says he is.
Game plan is slow safe boring sh1te.
Who is our coach for tackling?
Once again I am seeing 3 players tackling one guy, ours go to ground but allowing opposition player to have arms out to dispose of it.
Time and time again.
What is the purpose of 3 of our players flat on the ground having unsuccessfully tackled?
Ok Carlton FC. We get it. We get your point. You want to defend, not have high scores against. We get it. But hello, we also need high scores! We have killed offensive play to improve defensive, we now need a lot of offensive coz if this is footy, I ain’t watching 👋🏼
Will Vossy change something?
(Aside from allocating another non ruckman as 2nd ruck if sos is out and watching the rest of the cards fall)
He has covered a lot of the ground. If he wasn't playing it would be over.
I thought Kennedy made a few costly errors but I think he said at half time he had a corky.
I spotted him running the ball over the boundary once :o
Certainly a very ordinary quality game. Both teams are like turnover central.
Commentators said it during the second and I thought it seconds earlier, the players looked gassed.
I don’t care as long as we get the points (4)
Damn, Daniher can't talk anymore.
They have missed quite a few and should be much further in front. Thats the only hope we have (making them pay in the second half for it).
There was a 5 min period when no one could mark the ball, dewy ?
Boyd is the other who is so ordinary, costly mistakes.
If we don't change it up in the 2H this game will just slip away into another loss.
Total Distance Covered:
Langdon 8.0km
Cotrell 7.8km
Salem 7.3km
Walsh 7.3km
Weitering 7.2km
Yep. I thought the jumpers were mixed up because they were doing a Carlton.
Total sprints:
Langdon 13
Smith 13
Chandler 13
Neal-Bullen 11
McGovern 11
Lan
Found one in Kemp. See ya Gov!!
Work rate:
Carlton:
Attack: 8.5km/h
Defence: 7.6km/h
Melbourne:
Attack: 7.9km/h
Defence: 8.8km/h
A good start would be kicking more than 2 goals. That’s deplorable
Charlie needs to get involved FFS
Right, we need the first
Seeing we're doing stats ;D
Our efficiency inside 50 is 36%
Our season average is 47% :(
JUST LIKE FARKEN THAT
Harry
What did i miss?
Just made a cuppa
When did we become a soccer team kicking soccer scores.
H with his 3rd 🥳
Well done. Hope that inspires
Dow for sos. Owies injured
Just fark off Boyd
Need a goal here
Well done harry
Brain fade again Young
Its criminal that a skinny HFFer is is allowed to mark in the goal square. Makes me sick.
Goodbye Mitch
Young confidence is about as low as Harrys was last week.
Not sure whats happened to him, but he needs to sort his $h!t out because we haven't got much behind him.
We cannot buy a goal when we need one
Our worst period
Frontal contact where was our free
Quite depressing.
Of all the years in the last 20 this is the worst. Mainly because we expected so much more. Other years we knew we were either crap or not quite ready.
He's injured too isn't he?
EDIT: Sam Durdin Hamstring 2-3 weeks
I was wrong...he can kick ;D
Worst followed by our best patch 😶
Need to build on this.
3 goals and we're in front.
Doesn't have to be in the next 3 minutes, do it over the next 35 minutes if you like.
Let's go!!
screw
A little glimmer. Then ...
Young again wtf
Crippa needs to mark those not play for a free, resultant goal from coast to coast
That goal came from 2 of our blokes hitting the deck on our forward 50. Acres and then Motlop.
Keep your feet, don't allow the overlap!
That's no deliberate
Cripps really not moving well.
Brilliant by Kennedy there. Kept his feet.
Others would've fallen over on 3 occassions.
Bloody hell when we get in and bring it to ground, any danger we can hold it in. It comes out of their defence so easily its ridiculous.
Id give up both the jewels for a Fritch
First goal a must again or we are gone for certain.
Young fwd
So far, Dow hasn't been bad, I'm struggling to understand why he has been hung out to dry for so long ??
This will be the ball game, nighty night.
Fisher puts it through
Someone needs to smash harmes
Got the momentum at the moment.
If we stop making dumb decisions with the ball, we could be in front very quickly.
Backline is holding up OK considering how much the ball is coming in.
Getting smashed but still in it
That's it
Not sure how you can ping walsh for holding when the dees player keeps tapping it up in front of him.
If the player takes the ball with him for 5m without it touching the ground, then he is in possession of the ball.
Oh Harry....
Incorrect marking attempt obviously doesn't apply to Pickett.
Kennedys has just (re)done his calf i think.
Good effort and nice to see Harry doing some good things and looking a bit more confident, but still much work to do.
Need 3 goals in 5 min and mcgovern goes to the boundary
Our legs are shot
Football gods are giving us a chance if we're good enough. Dees missing plenty.
Just gotta go all out attack from here
It's an athletes game now.
Just so hard to kick a goal. What has happened to this team.
and we are playing an injured Cripps, Kennedy...
Season over 😪
Yes, we will be 14th at the end of the weekend.
