Rozee was a flight risk, Walsh won't leave Victoria. Still think we got that pick right IMO

Just rewatching the second half, except for that atrocious miss running into goal, McGovern’s third quarter was a major reason why we got back into the game. He actually got on his bike and got mobile. I have faith.

I just have this nasty nagging feeling that the longer players are with us the more self belief they lose. There is something deeply and fundamentally wrong at the club, I am growing more convinced of it. Not confident either that the latest management regime will fix it.

Intersting stat on fox footy, Carlton was the 4 oldest team at the weekend.

It's hard to understand how for the very long term our club's coaching and recruiting staff seem so oblivious to our lack of heavy bodied leg speed.
They complain about our slow starts, like it's an attitude problem. But I'd say our primary problem is we can't keep up when the heat is on in the opening minutes, no matter how hard we try we just haven't got the leg speed and if we don't get first use of the ball we're out of the contest.
Cripps, Curnow x 2, Setterfield, Gibbons, SPS, SoJ, etc., etc., might be able to use strength and aerobic capacity late in a quarter, but it will always be coming back from a deficit. We need to find ourselves a high speed heavy bodied tackler in short term.
Last weekend, until the legs slowed, Cripps and Setterfield were always two steps behind similar sized blokes like Petracca, Oliver and Tomlinson.
In the past we'd have SpecialK squaring the ledger and preventing opposition taking the ball away, but we haven't now and might not ever have him again. I have hope for De Koning.
This is not a new problem, it's been our problem since back in the days of Kouta.

Josh Dunkley would certainly be worth a look.

I think we missed a huge trick in not having a bigger crack at Hugh Greenwood.
I know EB1 thinks the Crouch's are potential targets but that's at least 2 or 3 seasons off, and costly, there is a lot of water to go under the bridge before then.
We miss Robbo so badly, Malthouse is the gift that just keeps on giving, that Filth prick found away to offload our rarest resource.
