To add to those injuries Bolton thinks Fisher may have fractured his leg:

Howell is going to have a bad day with the MRO. Deliberate punch on Cripps, trip on Fisher fracturing his ankle. He won be seeing any action before the finals.

The trip should be a month if it breaks a leg,   the punch should be classed as a strike,  intentional,  head contact and medium impact... Two weeks.

But don't forget the against Carlton discount,  if he's unlucky hell get a fine for the trip and a week for the second.

A real side would have hospitalised the prick.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

I was firmly in the BB camp until recently. If you can't galvanize a group with their backs to the wall... well, they aren't hearing you.

We can't keep going backwards and seeming unprepared, insipid, with a confusing game plan. These kids need an experienced bloke with his own team of assistants to give the present list something to look forward to next year... not more of the same, nuh.

x2....We are non competitive......thats the bottom line, not sure how long you can keep going like this before change has to happen..
Tactically we are horrible...zone defense isnt working and while the multi premiership coach found it fit to tag Cripps with Howe we just allowed Mitchell to wander around on his own all day and gave
him three brownlow votes...this is after OMeara was pulled out and it left Worpel and ORourke as the Hawks main mids behind Mitchell. How does that make sense? they are down to one main mid and we let him run around on his own. Its not Auskick.....

I simply cannot understand how two obvious trips were simply ignored by the umpires. For that matter, I haven't heard of a report for the Cripps hit yet. Can't be much more obvious than it was.
Live Long and Prosper!

3rd 10+ goal belting in a row....Bolts has to be feeling the pressure surely?

What else could he do in your opinion? I am curious to hear what others think, however, I look at this side with who is available, and, I wonder what else we really could do in this situation. Consider form, injuries, and, availability, what other options do we have?

Our zone is a joke. The players guard space and give the opposition enough room to pass it around and just walk through it with zero pressure. There are too many moments where we have more numbers in the area but the opposition stroll way with ball unchecked.
if Bolton won't adjust this glaring hole in our game plan he has to go. I can live with our young players getting beaten in a contest, but capitulating without a fight like this is disgusting and disrespectful to every person who supports Carlton.

I can't remember - did Cripps even get free kick from it?

The Hawks are not the same team as a few years back, but they still have a decent number of premiership players, a decent number of 100-200 gamers, a 4 time premiership coach, and of course, their secret weapon, super coach Ratts.

I could never understand why some folks thought this was a winnable game.

I posted earlier in another thread:
Bruest to kick five. Carlton to kick seven.

I think it was Breust who took a set shot from about 35 metres dead in front, it sailed through easily but there wasn't a single Carlton player standing on the goal line.
That's not down to Bolton.
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.

No.
What a surprise. All those umpires must have been looking elsewhere.
Likewise fisher being tripped. I don't think it was intentional but clearly a trip.
But if Polson gets tackled after 2 steps the umpires jump on it.
We were clearly bad today and deserved to lose, but the umpiring was just as putrid. And the commentary team on fox. Eddie spent 5 minutes in the last term promoting the pies v tigers match next and saying it should be moved to Saturday night ffs.

As is. What is happening when that type of stuff happens. A properly drilled and motivated side doesn't let that happen.
