Re: 2018 Rd 17: Post Game whatever : Carlton vs Hawthorn - Baggers - 07-22-2018
We've broken through the 60% barrier... 59.6%
Re: 2018 Rd 17: Post Game whatever : Carlton vs Hawthorn - Lods - 07-22-2018
The issue with today wasn't a lack of effort.
We were just outclassed.
The fact that we were able to kick a few goals in a row indicates we were still trying....their effort just dropped off.
Clarkson wouldn't have been happy...and any day that Clarkson isn't happy can't be all bad.

...well, we sure are giving our critics plenty of ammunition...

re: Kennedy....still not convinced, 1st quarter was terrible, just handed the ball to Hawks players but did improve as the game went on...not a frontline mid IMO..more your Blue Collar 4th mid who needs some class around him to make up for his rough disposal....
No two ruckmen. It's does Harry alot of good running around the ground right now chasing marks and kicks. That's alot more important. Mightn't win a tap but stiff $hit as long as he is getting his hands on the ball it will only help his confidence. Some rucking made Levi a better player over the years, he would've been done long ago without that as he game would've fallen right away, and will make Harry alot more so than Levi as he is infinitely more talented.

We can't keep going backwards and seeming unprepared, insipid, with a confusing game plan. These kids need an experienced bloke with his own team of assistants to give the present list something to look forward to next year... not more of the same, nuh.
I don't think they can get rid of Bolton unless they all hand in their tickets.
They're joined at the hip...although when you look at it.... there aren't many architects of the rebuild left.
Whose idea was it anyway :

Where are we?...we need a reset on the rebuild.....we have injuries but we dont have enough bigger bodies anyway...eg Matt Shaw
was recruited to provide a bigger body and mature age backup but he looks slender vs the Hawks bigger bodies.
10 players cut and some bigger mature bodies brought in..I looked at the Pies game and at Mihocek who kicked 4 goals and he is that utility type tall we need, big strong body honed in the VFL and at 25 ready to play AFL footy and who can take a hit and give one....
Its not a crime anymore to take players from the VFL/WAFL/SANFL and we need some of these freebies that other teams have the knack of picking up and who can fill some holes on the list..
We need to recruit bigger bodies, but classy ones, not GWS steak knives and delisted free agents. We have alot of good, young kids. It's not been one of our strengths recruiting from state leagues so it's something we need to get right.

On the agenda of most media commentators is kicking the boots in to us. Whateley has much more freedom on SEN to become the shock jock he has always wanted to be. We are simply an avenue for him. The day we next beat Geelong..I don't know when but I will be calling 9429 1116 very sharply

He was about 20 years old when we flogged his beloved Geelong in 95.

We're everybody's easy target atm and it's become a feeding frenzy. Just shows what a pack of lazy ass-wipes most of 'em in the media are. Little attempt at serious unbiased analysis just 3rd rate finger pointing - probably that's all they are capable of. Still, we have to put up with it - for now!
