Re: 2017 Round 5: Post Game Prognostications: Carlton vs Port Adelaide - LP - 04-21-2017 Next thing people will be claiming it would have been worse with Kerridge, Palmer, Daisy and Jones. I doubt it! But give the people what they want, their sacrifice!

Never known a side to get the ball into the F50 so slowly. We need to be a lot more skilful with our ball movement, and have a lot more players who are very good contested marks, to get away with that style of play. Certain teams with the right players can overcome the flood - we are not that team.

It was insipid. There wasn't much spirit on display. It all started from the middle, just like in the Pagan days. Ryder had a picnic against Phillips, who simply didn't look up to it after half time. Re: 2017 Round 5: Post Game Prognostications: Carlton vs Port Adelaide - Barbs - 04-21-2017 Well that was about as much fun as shaving with a rusty steak knife and swimming in vinegar. But I guess that's what happens when too many kids line up with senior players that aren't playing well or working hard enough. Everything was off tonight - didn't work anywhere near hard enough both when we had the ball and in defence, poor disposal (really, really poor disposal) and we played like it was wet by just kicking long as soon as we got our hands on the ball. We all knew there would be weeks like this. And chances are this won't be the only time we get smashed this year. Re: 2017 Round 5: Post Game Prognostications: Carlton vs Port Adelaide - Professer E - 04-21-2017 Move the ball slowly because there is no focal point at CHF directing traffic. A lot of missed tackles, that will Come with body strength and conditioning. Our midfielders are slow as a group and dont spread enough, and we got killed on the outside by Polec et al. Didnt help getting slaughtered in the ruck. Gibbs played as bad/ineffective a game as i have seen. Ed is another, have to question his future. Re: 2017 Round 5: Post Game Prognostications: Carlton vs Port Adelaide - Jeffy38 - 04-21-2017 Very tough night. That third QTR ???? Irrelevant in the midfield, worried for Cripps I'm just not sure about him. Competitive beast but ed curnowish by foot. Will be better with some more help than Gibbs and Murphy. I hope. Speaking of curnow, Charlie was immense tonight - at least 8 marks and impacted the game. Was everywhere. Jack sos, go back and take the kick son. Looks scared to take set shots and he shouldn't be. Weiters. Play down back for a few, win some confidence or have a rest. 70 inside 50s to port apparently so midfield got smashed, seriously hope krooz is fit, Phillips was absolutely putrid. Ins: Kruezer, Jacksh, Cunningham Out: Murphy (Inj) Phillips Macreadie Lucky to stay in: Sos, Pickett, sps Re: 2017 Round 5: Post Game Prognostications: Carlton vs Port Adelaide - laj - 04-21-2017 (04-21-2017, 12:37 PM)PaulP link Wrote:We need to be a lot more skilful with our ball movement, and have a lot more players who are very good contested marks, to get away with that style of play. Certain teams with the right players can overcome the flood - we are not that team. You think this is better? You'll be surprised how much better you can use the ball when there is space up forward and a forward can run onto the ball. Tough to use the ball well when it's always crowded.

The result is because the senior players were the only ones working!

Charlie Curnow showed a bit, like Fisher as a player, Polson gets another game next week, SPS learned you have to get rid of the ball quicker and leave some of the candy selling for games where we have better control...Macreadie looked a bit slow , Marchbank was reasonable, Weitering had no supply down forward, Williamson continues to impress with his kicking. Pickett was disappointing with his attack on the footy at times...picked and chose a few contests and needs to do better... Cripps battled on but looks injured, Murphy tried, Gibbs ok at times and Casboult converted most of his chances... Docherty had a shocker, Rowe did his job, Simpson looks like he is winding down....GC and Port both make him look a bit slow, the courage is still there but I thought he struggled to keep up with the younger players. Ryder beat Philips but I didnt think the ruck was a major factor in us losing.. Need to move on quickly to the Swans game and not dwell on this one..... |
