Can't sack the president's mate without sacking the president.

I agree, apathetic effort on behalf of my footy club.
Look at Melbourne and the way they have recruited. We have had the choice draft picks and what have we got? McLean and Johnson Warnock. Gave away decent picks for these blokes.
Carlton's coaching, president and recruiting staff are the laughing stock of the AFL.
Need to wipe the slate clean and try to salvage somrthing from this train wreck.
Unless they can turn things around, a record loss against the Woods is on the cards.

You have Ross Lyon who comes out and takes responsibility for his team's performance - can anyone ever see Ratten doing it? It's the old arrogant Carlton syndrome - we don't need to go through a process to find the best coach, we can have jobs for the boys (Lappin and Teague) - this arrogance that we'll somehow just have success because we got Judd or the #1 picks - it's a sickness which we need to eliminate. We haven't been successful for a long time and it's time we looked for people outside the club for once instead of thinking old Carlton will just solve everything.[/quote]

Exactly. Ratts either needs to take responsibility for this loss or come out and drop players like Murp, Gibbs and Jamo.

If it's not his fault then something drastic has to happen - no excuses!

We need ratten to go.... his little bag of tricks is smaller than i thought. Malthouse is having a rest day in the box.

We've had 100 less possessions yet turned the ball over 20 more times.

The triple M team have said to stay tuned for a big news story if the game continues this way.

At least there'll be no hiding behind Essendon*'s woes this week. spotlight firmly on Carlton.... not that it will do a @#$%&! thing. Something has gone terribly terribly wrong down there. I lament for my once great club. I feel like I am almost ready to admit that we are the shittest club in the AFL... not juits team... whole club is a joke.

We need to train better. Better fitness and and skills and we'd be in this one. We would be in front by 17 points.

Should be down by 120 points at three quarter time...

One positive to come out of today is that we will go in as underdogs next week against the scum.

We all know what happens with the underdog in those games!

They have something we dont - player development.

That is the most deplorable thing about our current situation. The lack of improvement and that fact that the teams development has stagnated or even gone backwards

Getting more spineless by the minute.

With Essendon* and Richmond coming up I can only imagine the pain we could be about to endure.

The small number of positive signs we saw against the Eagles last week are a distant memory now.

Who is responsible for this lack of organisation in the movement of our forwards?

Watch Eddie jump up with his junk time stats now.

NO... lets get blown away... Ratten must go and getting beaten badly will allow that to happen quicker!

I jumped in a time machine to see ratts press conference, some qoutes
we gave them like 30 games per player
I think we won the tackles out there
we need to get our confidence back
collingwood are a great team
no I'm not under pressure, were where i wanna be...

Yay...we might keep; them under a hungy poinhts...
