He turned up. He was cleary not happy and is showing genuine hurt with this loss and season to date. Didn't really hear any cliches but was strong on the clubs rebuild stance. It just got interesting and then ch 7 decided to cut him off and subject viewers to the muppets on the commentary team

Not this usual rubbish again?

Casboult had:
10 possessions. 5 contested!!!
6 marks.
6 score involvements (we only had 19 scores total! So he's been involved in 30% of our scores!!) )
Kicked 2.3 with one perfect set shot and one that missed by a cm.
Two perfect leads that weren't honoured which would have been shots for 30m out in front.

What did he do wrong?

They re the new Eddie and Waite arguement.

They re the new Eddie and Waite arguement.

Marchbank and Kennedy didn't look fully fit to me. Marchbank is definitely better than that display.

In hindsight we didn't gain anything this week by dropping Garlett and Lamb for those two.

i dont really enjoy what the footy has become, so i dont even watch AFL that much anymore.

i pay $1000 a year to watch carlton play and i was sitting there last night thinking ive been a member for 20 odd years, thats $20k (thats a pretty good overseas trip) i have paid to watch this club and this is what im getting for my money.

for the first time in a long time, im wondering if i renew next year.

I would generally throw it in if we ever lost Cripps. About the only thing worth going for. I am enjoying watching Fisher/Curnow as well.

but last night was hard work. they players must hurting.

SPS and SOS are sacred cows and will not be dropped for extended periods.

Not enough pace in the team this week or at all.
About 1000 of us on here could see that during the week but not the MC.

For the second time in three weeks I turned off the feed. It was also the second time since half time in 1970.

I have lived in Mexico for almost 16 years off and on and have always listened to or watched a live stream of the game when I have had access to the internet. That involves staying awake for most of the night, once a week.

This morning I decided not to do it again. It takes enough out of my sleep patterns as it is without the frustration that goes with it. There is no way I can go to bed at 4:00 and expect to sleep after they serve up that tripe week after week. I don't mind losing when they have a crack but there are about half a dozen of them giving 100%, about half a dozen whose 100% doesn't look up to it and the rest are passengers at the moment. The game plan sucks. We are the only team in the comp that pushes all its forwards so high and then can't get back and we are the only team that pushes its defenders so far forward that they can't get back either. To boot, our so called elite ball handlers are playing sideways and with no confidence. Players like Cripps and Curnow will win flags with WCE, Geelong, Hawthorn or Sydney. They will have their hearts broken at Carlton unless something drastic happens.

Bolton de-listed them as part of our mega list turn-over. They now play at teams that are better than us. I'm not suggesting they were going to be Brownlow Medalists, but for list continuity and team morale, perhaps those guys would have been better kept on the list rather than bringing in new hacks. We were a better team 2 years ago.

Buckley would give us more than Thomas, IMO.

As for Eddie and Waite, they wanted out which was the concern at the time and it is now with Gibbs wanting to leave.

How has it come to this?
There is still effort from most of the team but soon that effort will also dissipate and the big losses will come. That’s when the real pain will hit.
Have 3 kids oldest 16 he only knows Carlton as shit. He came to the game last week did not come last night watched the soccer. My daughter 14 came along loves some of the young boys but was asking why I selected Carlton? They are so bad?
My youngest is not interested in coming to the games at all.

Unless we get better in the next year or two we are [REDACTED], almost as bad as Fitzroys last year or two!

Holman was nearly dropped before the Brisbane game after being poor in Round 3 and 4. Had just 7 touches against West Coast.

Gowers has reinvented himself OK as a forward, but still only averages 9 touches and 2 tackles a game in a side better than ours.

Considering in the game day thread I saw Kennedy - who doesn't look 100% - slammed all game who had 18 touches, 8 tackles and lead the team for pressure acts,
Dow bagged who is 18 and rolling at around a 60% contested possession rate, and Kerridge referred to as "always a list clogger" despite having a solid game and 27 touches, I doubt we would all be singing his praises with that output.

As for Buckley, good guy, but hardly the solution. Had 6 touches in the NEAFL last week and not the injury list for this week so....?

Crap post. Full of facts. Get with the narrative, mate. We're shit, everyone we let go is awesome, Sakc, Sakc, Sakc.

Not real flash was it If you can't say something' nice say nothin' at all.Even Cripps,who is an incredible warrior stuffed up at crucial stages.,and it went downhill from there.......................gonna head north and check out the magoo's coz i reckon if we are fair dinkum there al least half a dozen spots up for grabs.If those blokes up at Cramer St don't bust there backsides for a callup then i'm gonna cut loose with my thoughts.I reckon too many are stalling or going backwards and that i don't get.Whats wrong in the joint ? i can cop the floggings but i can't cop the lack of spirit.It just aint Carlton like.

Opening line
10 possessions
Never gets more never gets less.
Can you tell me the last time Casboult won a free kick from his defensive effotts in the fwd 50
Or chased down someone to create a turn over.
Fevola used to do it 2 to 3 times a game
Levi has had 100 games as a kpf and I can't recall him doing once.
