When you get beaten by the usual suspects yet again - Daicos, Elliot, Howe etc it just reinforces that Voss and his "support" are clueless. No planning whatsoever.   I don't want to sack another coach but he has no idea.  Chuck in a senior group lacking a skerrick of leadership and a swag of passengers and we're looking at a three win season - if we're lucky.
The last quarter we all knew was inevitable - it's at the point where we may as well hand the keys in, I don't think this club is ever going to recover.
Yep if you cant contain the Daicos kids then you are up against it and I was surprised to see OllieH on Nick and it didnt end well, Ollie is a trier but not at either Daicos level and his brother Elijah looked like he was at a rock concert and badly affected by something.

I can confirm E Hollands was the reason for the 666 warning. I didn't see who caused the 666 penalty though. Surely he couldn't have done it twice?

I saw evans making his way back on the wing. 

People want to complain about the coach, but we lack so much composure and smarts its just not coaching.

We are a dumb team full of players who lack co ordination.

I know many are gonna say elijah was off his chops but ive heard that meds can do some weird things to people.

Should have been removed from the field in the first qtr, put away for the night and taken into the rooms and treated for whatever he was suffering and help him settle down. It should not have been allowed to play out in front of 78,000 people for 4 qtrs IMO.
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

Agree i was there at ground level and there was a moment he sort of did a roll on the ground and jumped up and it looked NQR big time. I was with a Pies supporter friend so didnt pay full attention to the game but that thing from Elijah early in the game really stood out to me as WTF!

I dont know how I feel: we had that game won
But dont put those set shots away and collingwood do. Daicos was always going to get off the leash it was his 100th and he has great stamina.

Really felt for Byrne at the end, just for himself, poor kid.

Like we have in every game we've played this year...until we haven't.

Re elijah, how on earth did the club leave him on for 60% game time when he wasnt getting to  it? How?

Got back not long ago. Not happy. Another game we threw away.

[1] At least we did come back after we'd been pounded in the first 8 minutes of the last quarter. The result should have been a draw, although we were the better team for all but about 8 minutes.

[2] We seriously need a new coach. I'm sure we'll get one at season's end. We were out-coached when it mattered by half a Collingwood side. Why? We do not learn. If we can see the issues we have for more than a year, and none of them appear to have been addressed, you ask what the problem is.

[3] I am seriously disappointed with Talor Byrne tonight. He did some good thing, promising things, but when it mattered he really failed to stand up. Three shots at goal from no more than 40 m for 2 points, including the last, when it mattered, were critical.
Unfortunately, he wasn't alone. H kicked 1 goal 4 after dominating his position. That just isn't good enough for a professional key forward.
I don't want to dump on Matt Carroll, because he played a good game, but in the last quarter he had a couple of shots for nothing. He is normally a good kick, but he really missed when it was important.
Brodie Kemp: kicks the hard ones, but can't kick them from 20 out directly in front.

[4] I don't want to touch the Elijah Hollands matter. I've had anxiety issues: when it is really bad, you can't get out of bed, let alone play decent football. If he was that screwed up, we should never have played him. Flynn Young was available.

[5] Ollie Hollands is not a run-with player. he was given the job and came up really short. Daicos killed him when it mattered. His last quarter was like Walsh's 1st quarter last week: the difference.
We need very badly to recruit or develop a really athletic run-with player who can keep the opposition's best mids out of the game. At the moment, we don't have one.
Lord sometimes get the job, and he can do it well against anyone is similar speed. He wouldn't have been the match-up for Nick Daicos.
Losing Cincotta has really hurt us.

[6] I'm not sure if it all about our coaching, but our players can be seriously stupid sometimes.
(a) Lachie Cowan had some moment tonight that were just diabolical. Instead of taking the first option, he ran himself into trouble and screwed up.
(b) Adam Cerra wasn't far behind him. His decision making under pressure was dreadful, as was his kicking. He panicked, and it cost us goals.
(c) Kemp also stood out, fumbling marks he was taking early, falling over his own feet ... I just don't want to think about the rest.
(d) Although he wasn't bad tonight, H can be like that. He goes to ground too easily too often and his decision making can be dreadful. But tonight he was pretty good, but for his kicking. he needs to go back and get his kicking right before he loses us another game.

[7] Free kick to H, directly in front in the last quarter? Of course not. He's taken off with concussion and he doesn't get a too-high free.
I could go on about the umpires, but I've written enough about these guys. I'm over them. When we play well enough, we can go back to ignoring the stupid decisions they make.

[8] We probably lost the game by depending of Lewis Young as a 2nd ruck. I thought he wasn't bad, for the most part, but he was slaughtered in the ruck. It was the difference between winning and losing.

[9] I know Pitto works like a Trojan every week, but other rucks can lift in the last quarter and change the game. Pitto can't. When Steene got on top for those first 8 minutes, Collingwood got the ball out of middle quickly and we couldn't stop them.
Live Long and Prosper!

When we get our new coach, we are going to have a lot a lot of trades.
[1]  Because too many of players cannot complete simple skills, whether they are under pressure or not.
[2] Too many of our players are physically weak and unable to run in the manner that the modern game requires.
[3] We need to recruit a young ruckman of the leaping variety, assuming the rules are not changed. We do not have top ruckman, no matter how hard Marc Pittonet works. He can only do so much.
To be honest, we haven't had a premier ruckman for a long time. Matthew Kreuzer was the closest, but his career was ruined by injury. Sauce Jacobs we let go. Hampson never quite made it, even with his extreme athleticism. Robert Warnock was the best, in a lot of ways, as he tended to lift in important games, even though he struggled to mark the ball. Injury ruined him too.
Live Long and Prosper!
