I need to duck out for a bit quickly, should I wear my Carlton hat?

I'm embarrassed to be seen in it at this time :oops:

The confidence of the the players is so low - no first grab possession, hesitation, no expectation that they will be protected by a team mate. We are gone. So sad. The smashing we needed to have?

it's all about who wants to be in the side next week...

this has shades of the game against the Kangaroos in 2003 where we lost by 80pts and it became obvious the players and the coach were not on the same page,

Worry is Dick isn't around anymore to make things happen.

Meanwhile we have to put up with one of St Kilda's rapists telling us obvious crap.

Yes, I have my cranky pants on.

how is it possible that we make all teams look like premiership contenders?

I am not upset, more stunned but even though I want to wait until the end of the year ... wow this performance is just woeful .... how about our kicking!!!! Wow ... I can't stop saying wow
wow ....

my God WOW ... I'm a flowering stunned mullet at the moment.

Two coaches sacked in the one week?

In a way, I wish Ess weren't in the situation they are in. We need the blowtorch on us big time.

WTF is going on??

In all seriously, as painful as this is to watch, it is necessary.

If we make finals this year it would be the worst thing to happen. It would just hide our problems for another year.

We really need to miss finals and for the club not to reach its seasons goals for things to change (possibly).

Make finals and its business as usual for next year.[/quote

and knowing how smart our club is we would probably give Ratts a 4 or 5 yr extension.

Another positive is that the Carlton coaching staff can at least take a look at Sydney's ability to construct goals without a big name forward.

Not just today....... something IS going on. Well, you have a couple of Board members with account on TC. You can PM them and tell them to get active and demand answers.

BTW - Ratts is "on the couch" tomorrow. I expect stats and "young team inconsistency" galore..... :sad:

Ratten will not be sacked as there is no one to replace him in the current off field team.
