We just don't have the midfield depth to cover no Murph or Curnow and as Parko said their list is way better than ours. Anyone at Ikon for the NAB game?? Another pounding like this.

I just really hope the No 1 pick they may now lose is a complete gun.

To win 7 games is immense with this lot. It's a long battle ahead.

Forward line is our major issue but we have 2 blue chip talls waiting in the wings..

Also at this point i would trade Daisy.. He has to go give him to the GC in the O'Meara deal

This is hilarious.... Someone reckons Daisy is tradeable

Hoping he is, hope we can get rid of him. Its all hope at this point its all we have.

We once came back from 48 down.

I'd love to imagine that after the game Bolton would say "The price for your lack of effort today was forfeiting the right to ever wear this jumper again" but we all know we're stuck with some of those usual suspects for a while yet.


It's largely just being crap as opposed to no pride in the jumper.

Disgraceful performance to finish off the year
I really have my doubts about any improvement over the year

It's a combination.
Good teams run the ball
We watch other teams run the ball and do nothing to combat it.
We've been a victim of it for years and Bolton is no better.

If you think this game plan (reach for your bucket) that allows us to get thrashed by 17th and 18th on the ladder in three outings is working, you need to have a better look at what's happening.

Realistic, we could easily progress and win less games next season

Does anybody know if he has another year to run on his contract?


Sure does, three year contract at $375k per year.

Yep, our last three coaches have been crap... can't be the players.

Do we really have to keep Casboult?

Is a forward who averages less than a goal per game really going to be missed?

If the season had of ended last week we would have been singing the praises of Bolts, dont get carried away with this loss we will be alot better when Charlie and Mckay enter the fray and combine with Levi and Jack to give us a new look next year.

We have dominated the inside 50 count even in the games we've lost, maybe not today. Looks like a very tired, lackluster performance today.

But i've seen enough to think we will be better next year.

When there are several players standing on their own in their F50 and our players are standing in their allotted spaces not knowing who should be manning up whom, it is not just the players.

We have different players now than we had under Ratts and MM. Only half the list.

If the coach isn't important, why do we need one?

Rowe and White, but the again there is no one else.

Apparently they would get a game elsewhere, maybe Brisbane.

very disappointing end to the season

I was expecting a lot better

we don't have the talent but our effort and intensity was the most pleasing aspect of the first half of the year

however, we have let ourselves badly over the last half of the year

my initial prediction of a 5 - 10 year rebuild still stands

it's hard being a Carlton supporter these days

Our list is terrible, winning 7 games at the start of the year would of been seen as a major achievement

Nah.

We've lost 9 of the last ten.
