Remember when I said I still didn't mind the Dees and hoped they do alright?

Yeah, I was wrong...

The lack of composure in the last fifteen minutes of games is an issue now. Hopefully it's addressed as part of the group as they mature.

If Cripps misses the rest of the season does Carlton win another game this year?

5th time we've led in the last qtr and lost. Not that you expect to win them all but if we did we're top 4 and then then you're a flag chance.

It's nice to know our side is very competitive against anyone, and a great sign for next year, but the 5th time starts to frustrate after a while. Still, with 2 men down it a good effort.

Like having your heart torn out of your chest. Skill errors cost us greatly in the end. In those last 10 minutes we looked flat, and Melbourne found a bit extra to get them over the line. Once exhaustion sets in, the skill errors follow and you could see there was nothing left in the tank.

Good game, bad outcome. Was entertained throughout. Go Blues!!!!

These are the sorts of losses that should boil the blood of these players everytime they think about it.

Almost a team with a few "almost a player" still getting games. Names were redacted.

Sheahan had two frees aganist for goals and then that handball for another one.
He might make it as a player but he needs to learn how to play first.
Kerridge great game. made a couple of serious mistakes but otherwise was among our best.
Kreuzer flogged in the ruck today and not as effective round the ground.
Our kicking for goal from close in was awful again. Kreuzer, Gibbs the worst two.
I repeat that our small forwards don't want to take the first option. Cost us two goals in the last.

Great game to watch. They will learn from it. Two down on the rotations was telling in the end with players like Hunt finding a bit when we couldn't chase.

Another close one against a top four side.

Our crop of half back flankers is coming in handy. We need another one for next week. Not sure who is in the running but it might have to be Byrne or BB. We also need another inside mid (Graham, I suppose).

The best part about today was that our system is holding up. Just too many turnovers killed us.

I like Lamb but I want to see him use his instincts more instead of assessing everything when he has the ball

Great start from Charlie although he faded a bit as the game went on

Simpson & Kerridge both a mixed bag of good & bad today.

GIBBS another great game, wish he'd kicked that goal though.

flower I hate Jordan Lewis
