There's always next week ...

Dude, wrong week. Seriously, we've been waiting 15 years, what's 6 more months. Watch the replay, see where the drive came from and look at the trajectory we are on. Next year we'll be playing that first quarter style of footy for much longer periods as the younger blokes get into the 25-50 games as a unit zone.

We did try hard, and that effort resulted in that great but wasted 3rd Q.....we needed to take our chances that Q against a better team. You knew they'd come hard in the last.

We've had such a long dark period. We're showing good signs now, with Crippa and Charlie consistently playing to a high level and the kids are looking promising. Add another no.1 draft pick, and maybe a Shiel type and we can challenge. But we must get it right this time....if we flower up this club is headed the way of the Roy Boys. Interesting times ahead.

One player doesn't do that otherwise we'd be in the 8 based on the form of Curnow and Cripps. No such thing as one man team with 36 players on a big ground. Doesn't explain the other years when Juddy played well and we went shit. We had alot of cream at the top just the bottom half of those sides back then.

I can't see it, I could name 8 players from today's team that are no better than ordinary, or have no real place at AFL level in a decent team. Some of which are experienced, or just plain crap...I'll name them. Lamb, Rowe, mullet, Garlett, polson, graham, casboult...and at a pinch wright, Kennedy, jones. I defy anyone to argue with me that any of the above mentioned would get a game at a d cent team. 15 years!

Not that many 100s these days. Overall, it's the lowest scoring season since 1968.

We are trailblazers in that regards. We started low scoring a few years ago and everyone followed....lol!!!!!

So I'm wrong to think that pathetic?

Any loss under 30 points should be considered a victory, as we’re getting losses into the young players.

It was a courageous loss so to speak, it was a loss where they “did it for Simmo.”

Any match where there is a competitive ruckman wearing Blue, and where Carlton scores more than 50 points is really a victory, except in reality.

It was a loss against all odds. It was another loss to add to the loss the week before and the week before that and the week before that, but in terms of losses this was another one to add to the list, but at least it was courageously lost.

Hhhmmm....where have I heard that before? 15 years is a long time, my family (3 young kids), laugh at the fact that we are always down the bottom. One thing is sure, there won't be membership dollars from my son and myself in 2019. Sorry for feeling like 15 years is too long "DUDE, it's only a third of my life!

Garlett and Polson will be ok down the track. Kennedy's starting to go pretty well now. Wright's been good but have a bad year. There's a number of young kids not playing yet that will eventually come in and did well in the ensuring years.

You'll be surprised who gets games at other clubs. How said that about Laidler. He ended up playing in a Grand Final.

Yep.
Finally we can see how exciting it is gonna be. Wrong time to lose faith but it's up to you. Doubt you will get a lot of support tonite. Perhaps Nellie..err Braithy might agree.
Cheers.
We have a Crying Room for long rants and a decent bar in there as well.

and there was the tale of the tape. 20 mins of poor footy and the game was done.

Big Kudos for Phillips. I thought he battled manfully with zero support. When he went off and Levi went into the ruck was when the root set in for the next 10 mins. Phillips is a better ruckman than Kreuz IMHO.

SPS needs to have a good hard look at where he is at. His dinky shite is schoolyard stuff. Zero hurt factor.
Poulson is a baby but I can't see what he will bring to the team. I guess time will tell.
Mullet is just not up to it but I realise he only gets a game due to injuries.
SOS Jnr might go well back there when he acclimatises to the role.
Garlett needs to beeline the ball and take the hits as required.

Regards Cazzesman

You're being kind Caz, as is your way! We,aren't close at the moment...Polson literally cost us today's game today with 30 seconds of patheticness!!! Shows nothing!

My hands up here

I have been too harsh on the kids, Simmos documentary reminded me of that. If he was a first year player we would all be calling for his head. Instead we were patient and gained a great of our club. I’m not saying all these kids will get there, but some might and geez it must be hard when your basically all trying to make it at the same time.

The effort was there today, that’s the line in the sand, the standard for the rest of the year. That’s all we can ask.

Kreuzer is a better player though and will always be first choice ruckman. Last year he should've been All- Australian.
