Curnow and Bower.Dumb and Dumber.
Bower is dreadful.
I read on this site during the week how Curnow gets to so many contests.No point getting there
if your going to give it up immediately.
Yarren playing forward and cannot get in the game.
Haven't sited Warnock. Jamison getting beaten again in the first quarter.
Eddie and Gibbs our best so far.Gibbs played his best quarter for some time.

Paul Bower is a terrible player.. Just do the simple things, damn it.

Seeing him go forward at the start gives us no target at all..

This group of players look like they dont want to be there.

Brock, Betts and Gibbs are the only ones having a dip.

We miss 15m passes and they kick 65m goals.

I suspect he may have already tried that.

This is a really big game. Regardless of how many outs we have, those on the field just have to do better. Simpson is being tagged out o=f it again and we have lost his dash. Armfield looks like he wants to take the game on. Port just look more desperate atm.

Warnock doesn't seem to be getting as many hitouts as last week.

Gibbs is laying a bit better than he has been.
Bower looks lost as a forward and should be sent back, maybe for Watson.

Judd has always done that inside out kick. It's nothing new.

Right now we are a very ordinary football side.

Poor work rate, poor decisions, poor skills (Judd included), giving away silly free kicks and very little enthusiasm.

Heartbreaking to watch.

In case you haven't all noticed, It's a Bullants backline.

They will punish us everytime they go forward.

Top 4 is well out of the question, top 8 is at risk with this dross that is being dished up at the moment. Seem powerless to make a difference to the way we play. The role of the coach(es) is to get the best out of the players and that is just not happening at the moment.
No zip, no passion, no intent, no confidence, no result.


Considering our next games are against Geelong, West Coast, Hawthorn & Collingwood I would say top 8 is an issue

I was trying to be positive about top 4. My therapist told me to think positive when watching Carlton play.

Exactly, we would need to win tonight plus 2 of the next four minimum just to stay in the 8....
