2 & 3. List is reasonable enough if you coach their strengths that run and do ok.

Agreed, 70~80% of the list is suitable for AFL standard, but not under this game plan!

We have a list of lightweights, and this game plan is an arm wrestle!

We can't possibly win many games!

How good are we going when Buckley is interviewed at half time and he talks about how they are going to "Fill their boots"  in the second half.... How far backwards have we gone this year?

It's just obvious to me Laj, I can't understand why others don't see it!

Our only hope with this list is the shoot-out, instead we are scraping away to create certain loses with an obsolete game plan!

I don't see how the so called shoot out will help us.  The scum are winning because the put constant pressure on the ball user. Under Ratts and MM we've been unable to do this for more than five minutes.

But our basic skills are atrocious.

Basic skills are bad because we have no run and doing everything under pressure. Then when we do get it with pressure it's too late, we are demoralised.

Seen enough times when we're allowed to run how much better skills can be.

Under Ratts we were allowed to run and made finals. That's our strength.

You're missing the point, we have no space because we have blokes standing opponents. Nobody is attacking so it makes Collingwood look like they are defensive geniuses!

We get the ball we stop, we go around the boundary line they set up. It's all too slow, it's all too predictable. A great game plan for a coach to control, but also great game plan to coach against!

There were good reasons for 2012, only disputed by those who had a barrow to push. The same reasons do not apply now though, there is no excuse!

I see Jaksch has responded well to his baking in round 1.
Ignorance is bliss.

ONWARDS AND UPWARDS!

If i was Mick Malthouse, tonight i'd be thinking of giving the game away. Surely, you've got better things to do on a friday night then watch a bunch of gutless soft c0cks ruin your legacy on your night of nights.

This is about the most disappointed i've been in a Carlton side since Mick Martyn was our FB.

People can (and will) question everything relating to the gameplan, motivation of players, and the playing list as a whole....but as a player, if you put this kind of effort in, on a night like this, you need to have a good hard look in the mirror and question whether you deserve to wear the navy blue jumper.
