R6: Western Bulldogs vs Carlton Post Match Discussion

We've got some great athletes, like Curnow, and should these great athletes ever learn some skills we'll be a fair dinkum football team ....

All game plans and tactics are worth nothing without clean ball movement

Putrid display, but wisely decided to show abit in the last 10 minutes so we won't go overboard with the wrist-slashing and pitchfork-waving.

Usual good flashes/signs but overall frustrating.

Sorry to shoot bambi but Simpson......god love him still.....killed us several times tonight.

SOS is just so lost it seems. Wright also in a massive form slump.

Doggies smalls did the damage...as soon as it gets out of the stoppage Carlton is in trouble. Unfortunately just don't have the midfield depth and class.

Shame Charlie didn't kick straight.

Not sure what Silvagni offers at the moment. Can't go on ball. Too slow to apply much defensive pressure. Doesn't win it enough himself.

I shudder to think where we'd be without cripps.

... where do we go with jack from here?

Hold my beer

Fisher very good again.

Marchbank didn't look fit. Kennedy didn't move that well.

Better get Cripps some help.

Draft has to focus on mids who win their own ball.

Pretty sure Silvagni injured his shoulder

Plan A not working unfortunately.

I thought just about any team would have beaten the bulldogs tonight. Shocking game of football.

Went in too way tall and had a few players that were basically witches hats out there (Silvagni the main one).

The good news for 17 clubs is that in less than 6 months we'll be de-listing their future champions

O’Brien not sighted in the first half but got more involved in the second.

Petrevski-Seton has no touch this season at all.

Positives:
Cripps - another elite performance. 32 touches, 24 contested, 12 clearamces, 9 tackles.
Fisher - great game all over the ground.
Rowe - that tackle!
Charlie - some highlights, if only he'd kicked straight.
More AFL experience for McKay, Dow and LOB.
Kerridge - solid again. Keep.
Levi, Kennedy, Philips all solid.

Negatives
Way too tall. Four tall forwards and five tall defenders. Got cut to pieces by their runners at times.
Not enough defensive pressure.
Rare bad performance from Marchbank.
O'Shea, Mullett, Silvagni, SPS all struggling.

Good game from Casboult. Could have been better if more of his leads were honoured.

We come up against a side that is 18 months younger ,average 15 games less experienced. Returning from Perth with one less days break and massive behind scenes issues at the club and lose.
We are now 0 -6 the worst start to a season in 151 years .
There needs to be accountability for this.
The current administration including Bolton and SOS have taken this club and sent them so far behind the rest of the comp we will struggle to ever catch up.
This rebuild or reset or whatever you want to call it is a total fukcup.
There are no positives to this

Kennedy has had a couple of injuries so far so he needs time to get fit. Only 67% time on ground.
