Defence totally broke down this week unfortunately for us and midfield well it's a concern - all the injuries and what not unable to build cohesion. Here's hoping the midfield group can stick together uninjured for next 10 games and build cohesion because they have to.

That was as bad as the Bolton & Teague years !!!
Getting spanked by 10-goals is just unacceptable on all possible levels, there is no excuse for playing like that.

We could not have played worse if we tried, not a single bloke beat his opponent tonight. I could rant on and single out blokes who aren't up to it but there is no point. Every coach and every one of of 23 players were embarrassing from the first bounce to the final siren. I cannot recall a worse performance from a Carlton side, that will sting for a long time. But that's ok, we will give them all a cuddle, fly home, have a bit of a train next week and get another rogering from the Saints. I wonder if the penny will ever drop for our club.

Time to look, watch, study and regroup.
and be more methodical with Charlie and Harry as the focus but we just ended up chasing and trying to slingshot the ball back
usually to Crows players with ours all out of position up the ground and the cycle just has been repeated all night.

When Ed is our best mid for the match there are problems in the middle.

Started badly and couldn't recover. I thought the boys at least showed up and put up some fight in the 2nd, 3rd and part of the 4th, but got run over in the end. The Crows are building to something pretty good, don't worry about that. They will claim some decent scalps this season.
Oh well......

The only positive I can dredge up: 75 tackles. Not sure how many gave us an advantage though.
Not so positive: A total flogging by this team is a lesson to anyone getting ahead of themselves.

We are going to lose games but a 10 goal defeat at almost full strength is a head scratcher - lets see how we go next week. If we get smacked by 10 goals again then serious questions need to be asked.

I think the stats prove how bogus the stats can be, if anybody seriously thinks we won the clearances tonight they must have been watching the game in reverse!
I think it was our worst stoppage / midfield game for almost three years!

Vossy's presser will be interesting. I'm sure it will be measured but inside he will be seething, upset with himself, his assistants, his players, just an awful performance.
