Didn't see a minute of it (which hasn't happened for a while)
Can't see how they can spin it if we come last.
We have to trade for a midfielder at least and rely on developing the young players that we have.

3 years into a rebuild shouldn't be looking this bad.

Bolts looked shell shocked in the presser. Like the reality of how dire we are currently was not expected.

BlueBeatle isn’t on his own..we have lost a hell of a lot previous to this year and more so a whole generation coming through as well. To write ‘okay bye’ smacks of ignorance.

I’m not at a 40th. I’m in Little Britain (Gibraltar). Not going to watch a replay. Was looking for a good launching point off the rock midway through the third.

And unlike a year or two ago when many were saying/thinking that Carlton was such a positive destination, I can't now help but think that future recruits will be thinking "Why Carlton...?"

Keep this up and we'll have 30,000 members next year.


This is the scary part to me. We look like we’ve given up already. That’s dangerous for the development of our young guys. We risk wasting a development year if we can’t get some spirit back into the group


A day out at go-karting usually helps.

Oops. Thank God for jet lag. Turned tv off somewhere in 3rd quarter.

So competitive against Richmond just three weeks ago.

Then nothing, nothing, and more nothing.

Had a good pub crawl sorrow drowning session. So many Brit’s teams are “rubbish” too. Kindred.

We are a club in crisis (again)

No doubt about it

Focussing on youth is a correct strategy but you need good experienced senior players to complement their development

We don't have this and will pay the price

You can see some of our younger players have stagnated in their development

Worst outcome possible as you get caught up in this continual draft bust situation and set your climb back up the ladder back

A vicious cycle that only breeds a losing culture

We lost at least 3 on 1s .e. 3 of us for one of them, through ball watching and or poor disposal. Just shocking effort and attention and mindset and focus.

Gone backwards massively. If there is no cohesion there is no team.

this is as bad as anything britain, pagan or malthouse served up. only right now, we are witnessing the very worst list and depth this once great club has ever had.

no heart
no desire
no hunger
no skills
no run
no work ethic

That is a concern.

The question is why he deviated from his defensive game style knowing he lost Gibb and Docherty and has a bunch of kids at his disposal and shit load of talls??

Did he seriously think he had a playing list capable and ready to play a complicated game style?

This is what worries me about Bolton.

Gibraltar goes ok. But, give Morocco a miss. That joint is crappier than the present Carlton footy team.
