Easy tap over our mids into space, it's all over



we saw swans start this. richmond after HT did the same, and now the Dees. apply pressure at the stoppage, set up with an extra mid forward of stoppage and do whatever is need to push, tap, knock, parry the ball forward to the exit point.

we get there, they can't catch us, shit... they won't even try to catch us.


rinse and repeat.


Can you explain how our coaching staff can’t see this

Did you watch the VFL?
Ison was poor IMO. Not just poor but lazy at times and lacked intensity. He shows glimpses but he's miles away from showing the consistent effort required.
And you want to bring him in? FMD.

Pros: I reached out to my Wallet to tear out my membership Card but then I remembered, I haven't been a member for 15 years... Best Pro I been through with this diabolic Club....


Cons: Carlton Supporters especially those on TC...


I am sick & tired of blaming the Coaches, the players, the board, the President, the Culture.....NO I honestly do believe that the reason why we are in this mess is because of the Supporters themselves. Despite all the BS we keep seeing week in, week out, YOU Still F*** have supporters who come here & defend the Club and continue to buy into their PR Stunts!

Not even mad. This is what I sent to my brother who's a demons fan at quarter time.

"I've seen this movie too many times man. One of the Pickett's will kick some bullshit miracle goal, we will drop our heads and you'll put 8 in a row on us"

Not exactly right but pretty close

Voss on the bench like he has early onset Alzheimer's with no idea what's going on is pretty funny but.

Okies, let's talk briefly about the Game!!

1- How many Times did Kemp give away a Free kick because he is standing behind the defender when the ball is coming in and gives Silly Free kicks? What does it take for VOSS to realize this guy is not a forward... he can not play Forward.. !


2- How many times did Young give up the ball today? I seriously lost count... Did anyone See the handball that he gave to a Melbourne player in the 2nd Quarter? Then he tries to make up for his blunder, gets hold of the ball and kicks it backwards.... It was a Comedy Central....How long will this guy keep playing for an AFL Club???


3- The Fade outs are not mental. Anyone that says its mental is BS. It is all physical and due to lack of basic skill levels when the body starts to tire. How many times did we fail to hit up a Target up forward when there were Free players everywhere? I lost Count...

4- We have brought in average players into the club thinking they are the real DEAL.... I have said it from day one that Hayward, Ainsworth, Florent and co are nothing more than Average players who will give us nothing because they won't be able to win us games off their own boots. They looked good in their former clubs because of the quality players they were surrounded by, not because they are actually any good.

Both Hayward & Ainsworth have failed to hit the scoreboard for us. We are lucky to get a goal here or there from them both. What happened to the Hayward who kicked 30+ Goals at the Swans and was capable of kicking a Bag?

5- Voss was asked about the Fade outs yet again and his response was Classical " Oh yes, we can't ignore them, we know they are happening but we Own it every time it happens, we process it and we deal with it ".

You Clown, what exactly have you owned in the first 3 weeks of this year and most of last year? what have you done to process it and address it? NOTHING.....

6- We keep blaming poor Vossy but has anyone actually thought about our Assistant Coaches? they seem to be flying under the radar!! Do those Clowns have any say or input into this club?

Why was Frankie playing down back, he's one that can actually hit a target up forward?
Why did Cripps act like a tough guy after kicking the goal, he was embarrassed after qtr time, egg on your face?
Why hasn't any coach, coaches taken Walsh's game to the next level, looks down and kicks as far as he can - modern game will kill you playing like this.
Why did Ollie show more in his first year, he's gone backwards again this year. Don't look at the stats, takes the wrong option too many times.
No doubting Dean is very promising, but I have doubts the club will teach the kid when to enter the contest and when to stay down defending his player.
All this talk of Jagga being Daicos like, I hope the kid has thick skin. Again, looking for the silver bullet to take us out of the shit.
Reality most clubs have at least 3 or 4 young talent players coming through.
Don't blame H for being so soft, timid and weak, it's in the genes, look at Ben. If he was 5cm smaller I doubt he would be on a list. Never see such a big man fall down like he's been shot. Gawn rucks for most of the game and in the last, Gawn embarrassed H on the wing, what a weak effort.
Why do we always kick to a contest from a behind or to a short in the pocket then have nowhere else to go to except a contest?
So many teams are capable to transition the ball out from a behind, the Tigers against us did it with ease.
The club seems content, some of the players seem content and accept that we are a weak and fragile club.
What an embarrassment the whole footy world knows that we are mentally weak.
The Dons are taking away a big part of the spotlight from us

Just when you think it couldn't get worse.

43 points. 43 @#$%&! points.

And you knew it was coming. They knew. We knew it. Every @#$%&! one.

2 lucky frees for holding the ball gifted them goals and momentum, and then the full bed shitting ensued.

We have no leg speed. We have no kicking skills. We make poor decisions.

Our list is in terrible shape. Our captain is fast becoming a liability. I was ridiculed by some for saying this is just the beginning, but this 2015 all over again. We've wasted the last decade after waiting for our turn and all we have to show for it is a 12 week purple patch.

I don't know what the answer is. Not sure blowing up 2015 style is the answer. That was too much. But smart decisions have to be made. I'm not sure we have the right people in place to make them

Kemp is absolute dog shite. Cannot compete at this level. I’ll remind you again, we passed on Kozzie Pickett to take Kemp. What a disaster

We didn't just Know it, We said it was going to happen pre-Game, we begged the team not to start the Game on Fire and kick 7-8 Goals in a Row, YET they go & do it again LOOL.

Kemp is a Decent Defender... He is a natural Defender.. He is trying to play forward as a Defender.... Its so obvious... Voss has to take responsibility for keeping him there!

Just when Essendon* were in the crosshairs, we come along & save them FFS.

The hardest bit to digest for me was how terrible Melbourne looked for a quarter & a bit. They looked absolutely inept.

Then for the remainder of the game we somehow found a way to completely play them into form & look like their 2021 selves.

I just don't think our players care enough about winning. A professional team absolutely set on success, with the right on field leaders to guide them, does not let today happen.

Hayward had a shocker. Three times early in the game I counted him absolutely butchering opportunities, can't recall him like that at Sydney.

Kemp & Chesser don't know what to do with the ball. Kemp just lacks forward awareness. It all started for him in the opening minute with that hack kick to the goals that did nothing.

Williams looked like his own elbow dug into his torse when he bumped Pickett. Dusty did that a few years ago with Mitch Robinson & wasn't good at all. Then there was Dean's shoulder & I heard the commentators saying Cowan had a hammy issue? If the latter is true that's a big worry.

Byrne was good, great to see him get that goal, thought Florent did some nice things also.

Jagga looks like he's too good for us. When he's too quick by hand we're not ready for it. That said, he also fluffed a few options in the first half.

And Cripps trying to do it all in Q3 & getting caught just did my head in.

This is meant to hurt a whole lot more but sadly it just feels normal now.
