Completely insipid bullshit first half.

We look much better with forwards ahead of the ball and moving the ball quickly (I think)

Carlton don't deserve early Sunday afternoon football...

These @#$%&! 5-10 minute bursts, 1st quarter injuries and inconsistent efforts are @#$%&! killing us.

Kennedy showed us why we recruited him. Will be integral to our new engine room.

Polson will replace Wright in time I feel.

Not sure why we played him when we had Harry and Charlie. Struggled bad since he got his rib busted.

The blame lies with board
And appointing SOS
We have so many below average players

Even Kennedy who probably had his best game
So dickens slow

March bank can’t kick
Pickett simply too soft

Kind of feel sorry for Bolts

He ain’t the problem

I just think we have too many average players

Hawthorn are an ordinary side that made us look second rate


No excuses
The club needs a complete sweep clean asap

Only thing is those young players we've recruited the last few drafts do look ok. Kennedy now showing we made a good decision recruiting him. With Marchbank and Pickett as well when they are properly fit again they'll be good pick ups, Weitering looks better with responsibility of a key position. SPS was better, but probably best to play as a smaller forward with only the odd role in the midfield. Polson probably took a step today. SOJ much better in defence with a role but his kicking was wobbly. Schumaker had a good one with the NB's today, reckon he can replace Shaw next week.

Now just need a coach who can get the best out of them. Current one can't. Really shouldn't be as shit as we are.

If we're going to have another tall in there may as well be De Konning for a few games rather than Levi. Levi's done a pretty good job over the years given his talent filling that gap between losing Waite and Henderson and the young ones coming though but after his contract runs out his time is probably done. He'll be 30. Good to have with the NB's for another year to help young one's along but that's it. He come as pick 44 in a rookie draft so we've done well to get out of him what we have. His 100th game was one of his best games for the club but since he busted his rib he's really struggled.

We have to remove the barnacle. Trade him to GC.

His career has been better than people think. He's just everyone's whipping boy. Young one's have taken over now though. Has another year on the contract so some senior leadership in the NB's for one more year can't hurt.

The Board must go, SOS must go, Bolts must go. I agree - we need a complete purge. If a company was run by a complete bunch of bozos like the CFC, they'd be turfed out in no time

If MLG thinks we can't get any worse on-field, he can GAGF.

The only player on our list who can't kick is Levi. The rest can kick, they're just under so much pressure - mental and physical - that they're unable to execute.

The delusion has gone on way too long. Should be moved on.
