The commentators do have a point.....re the lack of structural change. It's like we're too arrogant for our own good, think that the game will go for 7 or 8 quarters and eventually we'll see them off.


Sounds like most of our supporters...

Can someone explain why David Ellard struggles to get into the team all the time?

Jimmae's fault....

Have wondered that for a while.


He is consistently best on ground in the Northern Bullants, and when he gets his opporunity at senior level, is always hard at it, clean with the ball, and pops up with 1-2 goals each time.

Its almost insulting to him that they keep giving Brock McLean a chance before he gets his, how many times does Ellard need to prove the match committee wrong before he is one of the first names on the team sheet?

The Carlton FC will not win a flag whilst Ratten is Coach....yes we willplay finals and win a finals game or 2 but Ratten is an average coach who is not capable of taking us to the Holy Grail....

You can put whatever spin on it u like, the facts are we have been worked out and Ratten has no answers...

Brett Ratten = Grant Thomas = wasted oppotunities....Our window is well and truly open and well and truly will be wasted...

Pathetic Bryce.

First the fumble earlier and that miss.

Impose yourself sometime Bryce!

There are plenty of footy experts who don't rate us, I get the feeling that other teams also don't rate us. We have little structure, basic gameplay of kick it long, a big lack of players who want to get the ball. Most of all we don't seem to want to go to the next level. We should not be flag favourites as it seems that in reality we are still a very long way off. Particularly with a coach who'd rather be mates.

Lost every quarter.
The highly fancied midfield got smashed.
Soft inside and like the game outside.
Waite and Duigan are automatics. .. seriously ridiculous.

No work rate what so ever.

No defensive pressure at all.

Just so disappointing

Disappointed in our inability to answer St Kilda's intensity.

Stats say we matched them for cont possession and won tackle count.

Sometimes stats lie.
