How's Daisy doing ?
Wow 8 touches in 8 minutes. Looks like we're going to have to come back to win.
What a joke Gibbs is being held at every contest and Cothin gets touched and pays a free!!
Is it just me or do we look like an under 12 s team. Ball Chasing
Going to be a long, miserable night.
3 easy goals to the Tiggers... here comes no. 4. And 5!
We're playing like a group with no confidence and no idea.
Someone better explain our game plan to me and get down to the coaches box and explain it to the players because Mick hasn't been able to!
back to the pagan era
highly disorganised
we're pressured and crumbling to minnows
Thank you very MM for teaching our boys how to kick :P
OMFG! Game 100
Sweet mother of God. We are awful so far. No composure at all. Where is the captain to just tell them to slow down and look up???
And trade Jeff. And Mitch.
Tagging DeLedio would be a good start Mick.
Time for a total rebuild. We've got a few out but no excuses for the rest - shambolic.
100 point flogging coming up.
Everitt and Robinson competing for the kick and hope award.
Disorganised. Dispirited. No leadership. And Richmond is not that good... we're making them look terrific.
Boy, glad I decided at the last minute not to go! Fancy paying to watch this rubbish.
So you are telling me they are paid to play like this ::)
F&ck BT is killing me why do they even pay him for this crap
sounds like he's drug affected
Not a great start by any measure.
All three commentators hate Carlton.
Last 10 minutes was better but they were costly misses by Garlett. Horrific clangers from Bell, Curnow and Yarran. Gibbs MIA.
Murphy, Henderson, Simpson, Ellard trying hard
Garlett just proved that 100 games experience count for f&ck all.
Embarrassing
Gibbs is finally getting a hard tag which tells you his worth. Have a look at the tactics they are straggling and hanging of him.
you're in the mid field Bryce - where you want to be
whether you stay there is up to you - it starts this quarter!
Can someone tell Capuano to tell our ruck man to tap to OUR players. Come on this bullcrap.
It's just not our night. Our turnovers are and they can't miss from anywhere :-[
For some reason our plan is to kick it to a contest when we have no one who can take contested marks ::)
Our kicking is absolutely terrible
Are there seriously clubs interested in Gibbs? After tonight they won't be.
When Deledio is running around by himself cutting you up you know (1) the coaching staff aren't on the job and (2) your midfield are lazy, no good, or both.
Curnow is our best player and to be fair to Ed he is just a solid footballer.
There are some very, very ordinary performers running around out there for the Navy Blues. All too familiar.
So when an we start the Sak Mick thread?
Softest Carlton side of all time. Pagan's side were crap but they put their bodies on the line. Well done Mick.
Tigers will probably still shoot themselves in the foot and lose.
At least HAmmer put Grigg down, former blue... That's something LOL
I cannot believe we could play this poorly, then I saw Rowe & White in the team.
On the plus side, the kids will get a game sooner. Sorry, but there is only so much the coach can do. The players need to show some plums here and get in there.
Why don't we slow it down and wait and spot players up instead of playing on and kicking to a contest?
Last time someone said that it was all the coach's fault now everyone wants to blame the players. Go figure.
SACK WARNOCK !!!!!!!
Please tell me we are tanking because no one can kick that badly. Face palm moment.
He's gone off for a rest, must have been tied :o
FFS Murphy, when king puts his arm around you and gives you a few words after your team is getting spanked, you push him away or on his arse - you don't smile like you're his bitch.
Rowe... messed up everything he touched that quarter a, real worry.
Time to start dropping the ball butchers and play kids that can kick. What are we running at... 35% disposal efficiency...?. you'd be ashamed in F grade ammos to have stats like that.
I can't wait to read your post game comments camel dealer. >:D
Jesus F'n Christ Rowe... You have taken two marks inside 50 and passed them both off and missed the target both times.. You are a f'n key forward. You are in the team to kick goals. TAKE THE F"N KICK... Rant over/.
murphy trying to be tough was embarassing
I Really expected Warnock to miss that, but not like that!
Surely this is a joke.. Apart from his kick for goal he has been one of our best.. Atleast he's having a dip and getting his hands and knees dirty.
OMG
Embaressment personified.
We are a rabble.
Other than "THAT" kick, Warnock has been our best player! What does that in itself say about our team !!!!
F...ing pitiful Blues. kicking is a basic fkn skill that at this level, shouldnt be an issue. You make me sick!! >:(
So which premiership window are you talking about MM?
Every time a CFC coach mentions a flag at the start of the season, it all turns to crap. ::)
X1000!!!!
Not a inch of him is captain material.
not a key anythings a hole
we are really bad - how bad?
if this was freo or hawks
we'd be 70 points down already.
I honestly feel we're bottom 4 .
not only the way we're playing - but its clear this group after 2 pre seasons
is not buying in to micks message - and that's a serious issue
Malthouse is taking the pi55 with this side tonight...we have no one to take a mark inside 50...where the f..k is Casboult ???Are you serious Mick??
That's the one that stood out to me. They aren't AFL standard yet still clogging the list.
They keep saying on the TV, we have been down by a fair margin and have closed games out in the last quarter. I can't see it tonight. Too many passengers and too many shanked disposals.
Those frauds wearing navy blue have just about ended another legendary coaches career.
Casboult? Yeah because we don't have enough player missing goals.
mick assessment of this team having any glimmer of hope of a p/window
is a poor reflection of Micks judgement
As only they know how to. What is it with McLean, Thomas and Gibbs ? Are they even out there ? Do they have half a dozen disposals between them all ?
By no means am I blaming umpires, but its fair to say all the great umpiring from last week has all just been blown out the window in one half of a game..
The umpiring is a joke. Ellard gets his head ripped off.. Play on.. The free to Cotchin for too high wasn't even there.. Goal scored. Martin not getting done for holding the ball.. A joke.
Jeffy getting his legs taken out in the goal square... Free kick to Richmond. Absolute Joke.
Just leave it as those Frauds wearing that once wonderful jumper!
I reckon we'll come back and win this. As soon as we kick two goals they will start to get shaky. We are still absolute shight though.
We'll win this, just watch.
Well the big break will help. We can't possibly play worse, it's only 30 points and RIchmond are a good chance to screw this up. Paper up cracks for another week.
Bottom 4 side... and we are playing for draft picks in round 2. Even Pagan did better than that.
I can't believe we went into a season with Rowe as our primary key forward back up.... surely there must have been a kid available in the draft with some size who could play forward???
You and Carrots need a reality check ?
Lack of leadership is embarrassing, Rowe should of had a crack at the sticks. Robbo & Gibbs head to lift big time.
>:( >:(
Remember we have Sugar Lucas up our sleeves!!!! :(
got and email today from CFC
Hi Everyone,
I have been informed that an undersea cable connection has been cut. This is the cable between us and Japan where CSC is hosted. Immediate action was taken to re-route traffic through alternative means, but this has caused all websites to become less responsive than they would have been otherwise.
The site will return to normal as soon as they rectify the issue. Until then, you're just going to need to be patient.
Sorry for any inconvenience.
Talk soon...
Spanner :-\
I could change a few words a relate this to sh1te that's being served up tonight!
I ve been patient for 10 fkn years!
Cmon Goat, don't be a goat, can't you see, there is no one providing a contest against the 2 Tiggies Blokes on our 1 Tall in Waite??? At least he would provide a contest...poor structure Mick!
Just another lame insipid effort by these employees of a once mighty club.
You might be right.
I thought there was a bit of a shift towards the end of that quarter.
We were at least breaking even
These "in game" threads have a habit of coming back and biting folk on the backside.
Hopefully this is another occasion when we can look back and laugh.
yeah, those were the days - I m afraid those days are gone
Gibbs 3 possessions in half. Is this bloke serious about another contract???
Remember the final last year... Riewoldt celebrating one of his 3 50m penalty goals in the 2nd 1/4 like they had already won. Then they went into 1/2 time supremely confident and on a high being over 30 points up with Cotchin kicking a goal after the siren. Then it went down hill.
We are still a chance. ;D
Important kick, this will make Richmond nervous
Nup, they will go on with it this time. This club is a shell of what it was last year. 17 clubs advanced over the off season, we forgot to.
PW planning = PW performance
Some nice touches from Buckley.
Every sign Waite is going to do something stupid.
How in hell do you mistake Simon White for Jeffy Garlett? BT...the best in the business ::)
Last time I saw him play he was a statue. We don't have a target but he ain't the answer.
Matt Thomas would have been a handy cheap pick up.
we would struggle to have 3 players who are beating there opponents
This will be Rowe's last game.
Going goal for goal isn't going to do it.
What a shambles
thats doing a diservice to a shamble
Mick never taught Daisy how to tackle?
Is Robbo playing?
God, BT and Darcey are a joke of a team
seconds that
Now Darcy is killing me. 1:1 contest cur now and Morris. Cur now is clearly lower and putting his body on the line but Morris gets the kudos. Darcy u r a tool.
We are the worst kicking team in the world
I just have to turn the commentary down...
That really annoyed me, Just because Morris is the bigger body doesn't mean he went any harder
if we have a skills coach he needs sacking
He didn't look confident at all...
Chris Yarran keeping us in this single handed.
Is Gibbs in the leadership team? Would've been a good time to stand up and slot it.
Yarran's best game for the club, he could tear this game apart in the final term.
I reckon this off field business with Gibbs is affecting him.. Wouldnt be surprised if he says to his manager to sig this week and get it over and done with..
We've missed some real sitters tonight that might cost us.
Yeah and because his form is so bad we can offer him less.
I wonder if we will bring our practice match / Pt Power final quarter form to this game? Man I hope not.
Some blokes have worked really hard to give us a faint sniff.
Why do we let this mob start so well against us?
No Juddy to save the day.
no channce of that happening!!!!
Waite should have put that at the top of the square, dumb SoG
I'm done
did i just see that?
LOL Richmond. Big effort to come back but another thing to overtake.
The kids the kids!
Really liked Buckley tonight.
Jekyll and Hyde :-\
We should be 6 goals up
But we're not.
Why do the players just stop? not just us but they did as well...................................
Waite's killed us tonight.
we should have won this our kicking has let us down esp big robbie warnocks
FFs, worst thing can happen is for them to kick a goal, even tho the game was won at that point.
the only positive tonight was buckley
0 and 2 heading towards 0 and 3. Just how I wanted us to start a season. ::)
