Because if its one thing our better players are known for is playing when they feel like it.
Murphy will play small forward, bob up with three goals "in a real captain's performance", despite not getting a hard ball get, or doing anything in the midfield when the Bulldogs eventually get some momentum going, or disregard Liam Picken setting up 2-3 the other way.
Yarran will do something flashy and not be seen for the rest of the game. Gibbs will rack up 46 useless touches off half back and we'll talk about his free agency value.
Judd will come back and tear it up, and we'll all talk about the importance of Judd to Carlton, and how the old bloke still has it. In reality, we just changed the game plan back to Ratts' circa 2010 "kick it to the champ" mantra.
Jarrad Waite will come back in and slot 5, and we'll all hail the demoting to the 2s as a real wake up call and the reason why. Reality will be he'll tear apart a Dogs defence without Morris and Roughead, and 2 will come from dicey free kicks inside the square.
If you don't see this happening, you don't watch enough Carlton.
Don't forget about Gibbs constantly standing around the packs and being the last man in. Lucas shitting himself before being tackled.
Lack of intensity and desire leading to us getting killed at clearances.
Constant butchering of the ball going forward (could genuinely not remember a hit target in the forward 50 last week)
Kicking it on the head of the small forward.
Kicking it at the feet or over the head of our forwards.
Butchering shots at goal.
Murphy looking to pass instead of shooting at goal
Warnocks 60 taps being useless
It goes on and on
