Re: 2017 Round 5: In game angst: Carlton vs Port Adelaide - LP - 04-21-2017
Well, this is what you get if and when you want to play and keep playing the kids!
Too many kids, no mature bodies, this week we have 11 players making Daisy look proficient.
I keep hearing about these fast kids, but they all seem second to the ball!
These kids will end up so mentally damaged they'll be worthless to Carlton. This "Play the kids" mentality is just a joke the "Expert Supporters" of other clubs like to play on the rudderless weathervane that is the Carlton media driven football club! They'll harvest the remnants of our list after we've dumped or written them off as 3rd or 4th year players, and well all marvel at how they've improved after they left our club!

Why do we only chase and follow the guy with the ball and not also run and chase oppo plyers running with that player with the ball.
Seems such a junior footy tactic we don't do.

And it's easy to blame Murphy, Gibbs, Simpson and the like but how can you make an impression when you are trying to take on a whole team by yourself.
We are GWS in their first years.....sh1tload of kids and some older heads who are just outnumbered.
Spot on T. Hard to watch but I guess we are starting pretty much from scratch.

If that's the case, then it's a joke. There is no need to play any kid injured. Play Jones or KJ if he's injured. That's why they're still on our list.... insurance!

Doesn't it amaze when opposition side can kick the great goals, set shots , and we just seem to hope & bash. It is individual player skills, or coaching?
