You get that when your players cant hit targets especially under pressure and the default game plan is bomb it on the heads of our forwards. We dont have many good kicks in the team and thats been the case for a while and some of our better players are in that category....
It's unmistakable now.

King said our top 8 ball users went at 56%. He reckons DE is bullship until it's bad, that is DE can be inflated (high) when you 10m passes. But when it's low or bad, it means youre not even hitting the basic kicks. Thats Carlton in a nutshell, not doing the basics well ATM.
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

A natural variation is in the 3% to 5% range, when you're 10% to 15% behind the opposition it's nearly always a problem.

Nthmond had about 10% better DE but it felt more because we burnt about 50 extra disposals, that's the scoreboard difference if you think about kick to handball ratios, we had more disposals but we had more wasted disposals.

I missed Charleson in my thoughts on the game.
He probably learnt a trick or two playing on an experienced player like Breust.
It may be some time before he earns a senior call-up but it can't be a bad thing getting experience with those types of player.
