Can't win in those circumstances.
We panicked a bit after 1/2-time, then we struggled against bigger heavier bodies.
Cripps is his own worst enemy, needs some serious handball practice, gave it directly to opponents 4 or 5 times then he doesn't have the pace to get back into the chain of play. If he's going to be dishing it off he needs to make sure he hits team-mates not opposition.
But on top of that, Wet Toast defenders (and mids) pick up the footy, try to break two or three tackles then fail to correctly dispose for a play on, Carlton defender inside D50 picks it up clean, blind tackled instantly from behind, holding the ball.
Nic Nat basically throws it away at ground level, sooked it up against De Konig because he couldn't get his way against a baby.
Kelly stone cold dropped it twice when tackled, inside the Wet Toast F50 and directly in front of the umpire, play on goal Wet Toast!
Great taster from The King, needs another 5 ~ 10kg and he'll be good to go long term. Cottrell not bad either, cooler than some of our older heads. Both will be better for the run.
