BTW, Ratten's successs in the last two and a bit years have been primarily due to Fev and Judd. I said this last year and I'll say it again. I was always excited about how Ratts was going to coach sans those two. He cannot coach. He gets stage fright against Ess & Adel & StK & Syd (minus one aberration last year)


This is close to the truth of the situation.

But maybe a few more negative experiences in coming rounds are needed so that more people join in the chorus.

We got our hand on the football unless I was watching another game; we win clearances very well. I agree that delivery is very sub standard but so is the off the ball movement by our tall forwards. It's farcical.


We struggled last night. Take a look at the amount of possession Essendon* had against ours.

I support our team, Carlton.
I support them week in week out, my heart is with that team.

We lose, we lose. It hurts but theres a game the following week
We win, we win. It feels great and theres a game the following week

Thats what i do.
I support whatever team is put out there each week, coached by whoever they may be.

Yes i get pissed off like every other supporter, but i let it go and focus on the following week.
I dont let it come back and bite me every time this team has a downer.

Shite happens, suck it up.
Makes me sick that some of the posters on here are 'supporters'

Just let it go and actually support the team.

:clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

Well said :thumbsup:

I find some of the negativity directed towards Armfield baffling.

He was immense tonight. Without him the Bombers were dead certs to have kicked 3 more goals. His two defensive spoils and rundown on Longeran were first rate.


Couldn't agree more, he busted a gut for our club last night, often risking harm along the way. FFS, keep guys like this in the side. He has the right mindset out there, unlike some of his higher rated teammates (Gibbs???). Creates space, tackles with INTENT, a selfless team player.

Sure he has negatives, but his positives more than outweigh them. You can go into battle anytime for me, young fella.
