Location: Back in reality
Pros:
More competitive at the contest
Less blindly opponent-centric, thus cutting off more inside 50s through calm positioning
Players much more confident, good effort levels
Forward line and attacking midfield group making much smarter runs, opening up space for team mates
Jones can suddenly kick
Rowe can suddenly run
Thomas, Cripps, Docherty, Walker, Simpson and Menzel all super competitive whenever the ball is in their area; Simpson, Thomas and Cripps outstanding
Dropping a tall back helping our defensive assignments significantly (Henderson, Casboult, Cripps); Thomas also used and used well

Cons:
For all the effort, use by hand is awful when afforded a clear target; regularly firing handballs a half step behind the player
Key passes miskicked or kicked non-advantage side under no pressure
Bell dropping key marks under no pressure; seems tired
White completely undersized while Henderson hasn't done damage on the scoreboard; swap assignments?
Curnow not great in possession
Carrazzo not taking any risks by foot
Yarran and Tutt largely quiet
Wood getting slaughtered despite being physically competitive

It's always about him.


It's very easy to play the race card. He's hiding behind it because he's actually a flog and doesn't understand why people don't like him.

Fev was good with the kids too, but nobody had a problem with his detractors.

Well done to the AFL media and Adam goodes this week for increasing segregation between races this week. That's all they've done. Saying we should treat someone different because of their race doesn't sit well with me. Not in this nation, not in this day. The AFL media and Goodes should re-evaluate their stand point on this issue. All they are doing is seperating us further.

Good effort that half but 2.4

Sums up our list imo

Our best half this year.


Yeah, lol you are right. We have extended our longest ever record of losing quarters btw.

Cripps is our best by a mile. Hard to believe that our guys are so inferior in skill in the conditions :yikes:

Jones is just a joke of a footballer. The biggest one trick pony I've ever seen. Has to go to Ressies until he builds a tank, if that's possible. Just a liability out there and they run off him.

What is wrong with Yarran. Has someone told him not to run anymore ? Every time he gets it,just does the dab pass and walks off :oops:

Oh wait....I think I know



Spot on. See the crowd members getting kicked out for booing a player. Apparently only some humans are allowed to be booed

Second half, just tell the players to run and take it on. If we get pumped so be it. We just have to learn how to get that aspect of our game going again. Haven't seen it since Round 23 last year.

Run and flair has been completely lost under Mick. Just have to do it and "re-learn" it again. Not easy, especially against Sydney.

In American College Football didn't Brad Wing get a touchdown disallowed for a "Baiting Touchdown Celebration", not sure what you'd call Adam Goodes goal celebration, but it was flowering ridiculous, and truly eye rolling. :roll:

barker needs to understand he has to change the team structures

use the corridor, man up and be accountable

our pressure is terrific but we are letting them off easy with that easy release back to their loose men

Can't complain too much. Barker said he wouldn't change the game plan but would require more competitiveness. So far so good.

We wouldn't get close to Sydney ever with Judd, Gibbs, Murphy and Jamison out.

A new coach and a decent forward structure is what we need. and we need forwards.

Eddie McGuire now an expert on racism in Australian society. Faark off Eddie,..... And take kingkerna with you.

kk, when Carlton supporters boo Essendon* players with the same gusto as they boo Goodes, I'll be happy and may even buy a membership again. But till then, I'm justifiably shitted (if that's a word) by the club.

Won't happen in 4 days. I would expect after the bye we would have a new focus on development and style. As Murphy just said on channel 7, it's about effort tonight,
