Re: AFL Rd 23 2022 Post Game Postulations Carlton vs Collingwood - dodge - 08-22-2022
Another cracking game of footy unfortunately, our boys only turned up half way through the second quarter, and left half way through the last. Collingwood did a lot of little things well. Voss was excellent in the press conference. It was great to see the disappointment of the players - they know they had plenty of opportunity to get into the 8 but stuffed it up - basically many moments throughout the season in games which may not have mattered in that game itself, but overall had an effect on where we finished. (Yes, there were moments that did matter in games). We won a couple of close ones. Lost a couple of close ones, as others have said, if ultimately our defence was 10 points better (<.5 points a games) we were in.
Some players surprised from last season - not many players went backwards. What the changes are off season remain to be seen - I think we only need to make three, but with Jones, Williamson gone, possibly Ed C off the list, there they are.
This will drive the team to be better next year.

Bet Durdin would love to have his final kick again. Don’t know who he was looking for, but it was someone who didn’t go there. Backwards to keep possession would have been good!

And my elder one has become more passionate, finally they’re getting a taste of real hatred and rivalry with the other big Vic Clubs!
Bring on 2023 - we were too injured this year and still too reliant on Cripps, surely Voss and Cooke have seen enough and will fix the problems!

Ir's definitely true for others I know also. This is just anther year of disappointment for my kids, me too. It's not just 2022. Many others also.
Let's see how many kids we keep supporting the Club if we keep missing finals!

In the past, the club has sold bulls$&t hope, now it is genuine hope. Watch how many Charlie Curnows and Sammy Walshes turn up at Aus Kick next year. There is pride being restored with being associated with Carlton and it should be a time of real optimism and positive anticipation!

Carlton dominated our Auskick this year.

Those videos taken from behind the goals were horrendous the way we were set up before that last goal. While I didn't expect a complete defensive system to be developed in a week, at least put a couple back in the defensive 50 in the right spots. Being outnumbered 2 to 1 in that last situation was in excusable. Weitering was just standing there. As a leader he should have been trying to organise the defence. The leaders needed their ears to burn after the game. No lessens were learnt from the previous week.

We lacked the nous to be able to shut the game down and stifle the Pies for the last 5 - 10 mins. We should have turned it into a stoppage fest and not allowed their run. Hope we are learning from all of this pain

They also had a few different combos in the middle, J Daicos ran around all day on his own and if you were thinking logically the player who wins close games for them is Elliott, it's like playing Port the one player you manned hard is Robbie Gray in those close games.

If only we beat the Hawks in R3 by more than 1 measly point, we would have enough percentage to make 8th. If only this happened, if only that didn't happen etc. The season narrative is cumulative, and unfortunately for us, the accumulation of all those moments was basically death by a thousand cuts. I still think the season is a pass.Hawks in R3?
What about Port in R5.
We were up by 8 goals at half time and won by just 3 points!
