Then drop him. No passengers.

I think if we hadn't had Pitto we would have lost by a lot more.
I reckon if we had an extra runner we'd have won. Wouldn't that have been handy late.

Fantasia is supposed to be a specialist small forward. Why isn't he applying pressure? Why he is nowhere to be seen when the ball hits the deck?
Thinking he is still getting the feel of the game after a long time out. Think he will be good for us, just not now. I think he needs to find that touch in the twos.

Everything about that loss was nauseating. From the predictability of it all, to the haircuts on the Adelaide players, to the unbridled joy in the Foxtel commentary box.

Crows wanted it a bit more when it mattered and their kids stood up and they did the one per centers well.
We lacked run at the end and that scruffy dude Berry with his scruffy mate Soligo just had more run in the legs.
Cerra was a big loss for us and the Pitto/TDK twin ruck approach was ineffective. Harry and Charlie looked good at times but failed to dominate against what would would have to be the worst KP defenders in the comp in Butts and Keane.
Walker and Keays messed with us as usual and the Crows are officially now our monkey team who we can't get off our backs. Good teams rebound so I expect more effort vs GWS and a few changes in both teams due to injuries.

Important players are hurt EB, not confident taking on GWS

If we hadn't had Pitto, we would have had Cerra.

Given the game is at Marvel I think we will rebound ok but if it had been at their home ground/s then I wouldnt be so confident.
Re: AFL Rd 5 2024 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs Adelaide - Professer E - 04-13-2024
We need to start winning clearances, our small forwards are average and I've no confidence in our small defenders with Saad missing

Lacked run in the end - playing two rucks not suiting the demands of system as need more runners up and down the ground. The amount of marks we gave up in our D50 due to lack of pressure or covering was comical. Lost it on selection table.
