Who would have thought 6 weeks ago, sitting 2nd, then kicking 8.4 in the first qtr against GWS That we would be in this position.

Our game style over the last 3 years is based on tough contested stoppage footy
Get the ball to the talls up forward
One it’s predictable We are bottom half for marks inside 50
Two it’s not sustainable
You think about it
Since round 1 2023 Carlton have played 47 games of footy
About Half have been excellent
25% Average
25% Shit
Today was shit even with the injuries
If you based success on that brand of footy your dead in the water in the long run
Carlton have been crap since the GWS game
Today after quarter time the dam broke
And it was so predictable
We get scored against so easily once the ball is in space
Our ball movement was putrid
And there are 17 other teams
If half of them like the Hawks progress your in trouble

So what’s next
The season is done
This list is simply not good enough
To be fair to Voss he has tried to change the game style
It simply hasn’t work because the list isn’t good enough
Good opposition will expose you
We are too slow and have poor skills compared to the other 17 teams soon to 18 with a multitude of draft concessions

I have banged on for years on this site about List Management
Watching Mannagh and Humphries playing for the Cats yesterday who they drafted for a bag of chips it infuriates me that we pay and play players like McGovern and Williams
Mc Govern was utterly disgraceful today towards Kemp even though he played absolute shit

Sure injuries have played major part
But blame injuries for performances like that wallpapers the cracks

With Tasmania coming in the club needs to start again ASAP
They never have stripped it right back and until they strip it back we won’t be in a Grand Final

I think it’s called fragility.

SPS, Fisher, Dow, LOB, Stocker, Philp. They should be the core of the team now. Not one of them still on the list. We blew the rebuild through poor top end draft picks.

This the Ratten era revisited

Reliance on our best players and individual brilliance to win games

Our bottom 6 - 8 players are simply not good enough

Should have conducted a mini rebuild when Voss started

Now we are in the wilderness as our best players are essentially at their peak now and we are still struggling to make finals

That's depressing reading.

It's pretty amazing we made a prelim with this list TBH

The SOS picks are particularly dreadful

SPS, Fisher, Dow, LOB, Stocker, Philp. They should be the core of the team now. Not one of them still on the list. We blew the rebuild through poor top end draft picks.

I would put a million on it that the players who are always injured are vegans or don't eat enough meat
They don't bulk up and most are as skinny now as when they arrived

Far out. There are some ordinary names there.
