We couldn't do it. Again, one bad quarter and we're done. How irritating can that be.
But at least we turned up this week.  :'(

Why do we keep picking so many big tall blokes who end up being passengers?

This was the game to play Honey, Dow... Whomever,  not Casboult + Pittonet + TdK + Macuseless.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

Oh well, 1st vs 12th and it showed. Another 5 goal run, at least Harpo gave them a spray at half time.
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time
2025-Carlton can win the 2025 AFL Premiership

Cas was next to useless as was TDK for the most part. Our blokes  need to out strength and kgs on, we get bumped off the contest so easily, Rayner has turned into a bull!

31 possessions to Walsh. Bet they don't give him any credit in the media.

The ch 7 commentators gave him a fair wrap I thought. If it wasnt for him and Martin, that would have got real ugly.

CFC, the club that never learns from history. I thinks that's 9 games this season where they've allowed a run on of 5 goals or more. F'n pathetic.

We are honestly the easiest club to score against. If you get into our defensive 50, you're almost guaranteed a shot at goal. For all of you lauding the likes of Jones and Plowman you're kidding yourselves.

You don't progress and improve as club when you the likes of those two in key defensive posts. Plowman did ok today, but that's his good game in 5, you'll be waiting until round 5 2021 of his next contribution of note.
Drugs are bad, mmmkay...

Cas is a forward/ruck. Knew once we picked 2 rucks he was playing badly especially in the conditions. So much better when he gets his hands on it around the ground. Why we picked so many talls in such conditions is beyond me. A couple more smalls at ground level could have made a real difference.

Won 39 qtrs. We finished one more winning qtr from the top of that ladder. Shows how those run ons in a qtr have hurt us.

Not that far away but there's issues that need to be sorted as they killing us.

Casboult - 2 possessions, 1 goal, 5 hitouts
TDK - 3 possessions, 2 hitouts
McGovern - 6 possessions
Polson - 6 possessions - 33% DE
McKay - 6 possessions, 3 goals
Betts - 7 possessions, 1 goal assist.
....
Pittonet - 11 possessions, 29 hitouts

Surely you could lose a tall from them. But it shows that ball didn't get to our forwards much

....and that Polson is useless.

Staggered that Simmo has finished and Murphy and Betts get to go around again.   Lions' mids treated Murphy with contempt. Knocked him off the ball like swatting away a fly.
