I have been a Carlton fan right thru the dark years or the 2000s, but this is the most ashamed I've ever been to support this club. That was piss weak. From the moment their was some push & shove before the first bounce I knew we were screwed. Mentally and physically weak & it's easy to blame some individuals, but the problem is throughout the whole squad. Then the truly tough players are so dumb as dog shit that it negates their positive qualities anyway. Absolutely gutted. I'll wake up tomorrow and start to believe that Malthouse is changing our culture and it will take time, but right now I see a soft team that crumbles under pressure, even if it's only pressure from spuds like the Saints had out there tonight.



Spot on

Problem is our captain lacks hardness

And Kreuzer is a problem. Hendo and Waite should be our two forwards. Warnock our ruck. Where does that leave Kreuzer??

Too many spuds - Robbo, White

Lucas soft as butter

Jamison a crock

Brock and Scotland slow

Simmo cooked and Judd fading

Betts AWOL under true heat

Yazz injury prone

The list goes on

Lucas needs to play NRL for a few months & learn how to stick a tackle,shit Garlett is a smaller frame than Lucas but can still lay a better tackle......

Just when you think we might have turned the corner, they dish that up.

Seems we still are mentally soft and physically weak. Out worked and out coached tonight.

The old gameplan against Carlton still works a treat.

That's an indictment on all involved, players and coaches.

Cons:

We keep finding ways of losing games against this average side.
Not sure why the MC thought the 3 ruckman experiment was worth trying again.
Multiple injuries early in the game.
Poor kicking for goal. Especially early. The bad misses by Hammer and McLean were really costly. Could have kept us much closer on the scoreboard, although we weren't playing well.
Again found out by a flooding/counterattacking team at Etihad. Not sure why we didn't keep 3 spares in our defence. At least then, we could have prevented the opposition getting out to a matchwinning lead.
Hammer. Lucas.
Judd's willingness to tackle and chase.
The skill level, fumbling and falling over was horrible.
Betts' likely suspension. Although again didn't look like he made contact to the head. (Then again I thought the same last week with Waite.)
Pretty frustrating that we've got 3 ruckman. And they struggle to take a mark between them. McEvoy alone took more contested marks than our trio.

Pros:

Jamo's effort playing with one shoulder.
Coaching panel kept trying things. Really liked the move of Kreuzer into defence, and Hendo forward. Pity Jamo's probably going to miss games, because I guess that means Hendo will have to go back again.
Effort and fight back in the 2nd half.
Garlett. Could be leading the B&F.
Warnock.
McLean.
Armfield.
Tuohy and Walker.
Cachia showed a little late in the game.
Hendo's last quarter.

Kruz for his own sake may need to go to a club where he will always be the number 1 ruckman. I like him but I love my club more, if we can get a Dom Tyson and an early draft pick from GWS I'd take it.

for all the shit effort and stupid decision making from the players tonight

my biggest X goes to Malthouse

that was a terrible selected and coached game.

If it was ok to tear ratten to shreds, mick needs to be looked at for that one.

Malthouse just lashed suspended Jarrad Waite in the Blues rooms. Couldn't pick it all up but the word %^*# was audible. Ouch. #iamcarlton

Lucas' game made me so angry. 14 bullsh$t disposals. Another 14 missed or limp tackles it seemed. No hunger for the contest. Nothing upstairs. Horrible 1st round pick.

not letting the players off the hook either - they all need to be lined up and be poked in the eyes

If Hampson isn't played predominantly ruck he can't stay in the team.


neither can kreuzer

there is no spot for him

warnock is superior in the ruck

waite, henderson superior as forwards

he isnt a midfielder

white , jamison should be the defenders


Spot on


Kruizer cup my ass, give me cotchin any day
Better idea, give up picks 1 & 3 and keep Kennedy.


Better idea not to recruit Judd in the first place. Learn to stand on our own two feet.
