Just a horrific result for the cfc. Top 4 is gone. Another heartless, soft and weak as piss performance. I'm not sure anybody. In that team can be happy with that result. Basically, a result which makes me question my loyalty to this club. That in itself makes me furious!

We are the softest team in the AFL. Put things in perspective; we just lost to a bottom four team by 9 goals. Despicable.

When is the last time we actually had a chain of possessions strung together? All our goals are out of arsey kicks out the back of the press.

Whoever is in charge of our stoppage set-ups should be sacked on Monday morning.

While Bootsma may be a cult hero, he can't tackle for poop. Needs a year in the VFL.

Team looked shit on paper and looked worse on a football field. Swapping out the coaches would be an easy option for the board but wont achieve a thing unless the new guy runs broom through the list.


I distinctly remember you saying I was wrong about Ratten. I dont blame him totally.
Handed the job by his mates
Jobs for the boys.
A total joke in todays footy world
The club needs a total shake up
Kernahan has to go with Ratten
And a few others


Great to see Melbourne get up
I just dont give a shit about Carlton until the right people are at the club.

Good games from Watto and Bootsma and should play next week...Henda should play forward now so should Gibbs across HF.


I love and prefer Hendo in the backline but he's going to be needed forward and hopefully Waite gets back next week too.

Of course that's just a structural start and give the midfield some idea where they're aiming. Just the start. We need alot more of other intangible things though

I don,t have a problem with our number 1 picks but all of our other early picks have been a flop so our can you get so many picks wrong we need some changes and it has to start at the top imo.

Pretty strange match ups at the start. Not sure why we play taggers, and don't use them to tag. But then we use our really creative, talented players to tag. Like Simmo and Gibbs.

And I'm a Bower fan. But if you're going to play him full forward, then you might as well play Thornton ahead of him.

Can't do much when your tier 1 players play like princesses. Simmo should be scolded this week, expect better from him, in fact his lack of fight sums up our morale within the team.

Injuries are a convenient excuse for the apologists...


...the real premiership favorites seem to handle them just fine.

Wonder if our captain will believe we have serious issues now?

@#$%&! this shit. I no longer give a @#$%&!. There are so many other things that are better than watching that shit.

For those of you who stick around, make sure Synbad is President by the end of the year, at least there will be someone who knows his arse from his elbow running the place.

A big @#$%&! you to those who have ruined our club.

Enough of the excuses, why are West Coast and Collingwood not whining about injuries...Ratts has no structure anyway...his gameplan revolves around Judd and Murphy....

Stop the spin, Ratts has to go...

Well I have to go and look at a house I am buying. The timing is not good. The Aussie Dollar is going worse than the Carlton footy team at the moment. Every day the price of the house goes up $400 dollars. I better hurry before it drops out of the 8. The dollar that is. I think Carlton already has.

Are you kidding me? Good games from Watto and Bootsma? As Carlton supporters we need to take our rose-coloured glasses off and admit these guys are soft, apply zero defensive pressure, and would not get a game at any other finals bound club. Oh wait, Watson can kick 65m and Bootsma is a cult hero, so they must be good.
