Our first quarter outscored our next 3 combined.

Time to send some packing to the 2's....even if their replacements are not match fit, can't be any worse.

OUT: Fantasia, Durdin, De Koning, Williams, Weitering (inj)
In: Fogarty, Motlop, Saad, Binns, Young,

That $12M must be looking mighty attractive at the moment, even if it's a furphy!

Did last week take it out of us - it was a wet slog last week and we had to do everything to hold on.

Sydney oval is comical - one kick, goal 🙄

Harry’s Miss right in front was PUTRID! No excuses.

Charlie is not playing well and pushed off the ball way too easily.

So many unsighted players -
Kennedy the only to consistently stand out as ok.  Even Hewitt who is usually solid, did stuff all.

Missing - TDK, Owies, FANTASIA!, kemp!

What a disastrous putrid game. 

Umpiring didn’t make us lose but they too were putrid - not 15 not 15 play on play on. Give me a break!

Erase it from the memory.

Umpires inconsistent.
Effort lacking.
Prime movers well covered.
We lost a lot of momentum when Harry missed that easy shot.
Not a great day at the office from a lot of players.

Many found wanting tonight, but the main concerns will be Weitering....
and Walsh

I wouldn't be surprised to hear that he's hurt that back again.
There was definitely something wrong, and it wasn't just after that heavy bump near the end

Lazy work ethic......well beaten in the tackle count and one percenters, Swans broke our tackles easily and wanted it more.
Talent wise we have enough to beat anyone but when Cripps and Walsh cant lead the way and are tagged out of the game we struggle like a midpack team.
Cripps 41%DE and Walsh went at 55%DE......wont win many games with that disposal and your forwards wont kick too many goals..

If anyone thinks another a journey out to Ed's place will do the trick. Nuh. These issues go much deeper. And it aint the players.

Coaches, footy dept and MC need a rocket ...and an audit of the game plan. Nothing about us has looked convincing and authoritative this year. Moments of brilliance ...when the opposition relax a little, or haven't gotten going yet.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

If Im being honest, I expected to lose against the mob who will be Premiers this year. The disappointing bit was it looked there was a lack of effort. They were so clinical, their defenders just punch the ball clear, not fancy intercepts, no sagging off, just proper accountable, dour defending. Our midfield got taken to the cleaners after halfway through the first qtr. Vossys presser should be interesting. Other than Pitto, I wouldnt give any one else a vote.
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

acres was good across 4 quarters I thought.  Cincotta can be proud of his efforts.  Hewett battled on.  The rest were rubbish.

What we are really dirty about though is we've been waiting a long time for a Carlton side to play anything like Sydney tonight, and we'll be waiting a lot longer by the looks of things.

I won't cop that, the first 20 mins was scintillating. That loss was 110% on the players (especially the leaders).

Actually I think the club needs to make an official statement the performance was unacceptable and a review is now enacted before things get worse. I have lost all faith in the Austins, Russells and CFC coaches of this world unless pragmatic changes are enacted.. unfortunately, the pragmatic changes are game plan changing to this broken system. Lets see what happens against the lesser teamn because we have failed miserably against the contenders and no way do we deserve a flag or should be in the window for it as too many accept mediocrity.

I think we gave that one up pretty easily tonight. Mentally it has been a tough 5 weeks trying to beat the best week in, week out with half the side out. Not to mention some blokes that are in still underdone. Tonight, we mentally crashed.

Wish we got the draw against the Pies. 2 1/2 out of 5 in that hard run, given the circumstances, would have been more than acceptable.

On the bright side it is still better than last year at this point.

Swans have had 17 players who have played every game this year while we can't get a bloke on the park.
