After sitting through the Adelaide Oval Crows debacle I mentioned the old football coaches cry "pick up your man!I noted that they went man on man at our kicks more often than zone. We didn't know what to do and couldn't pin point a Carlton jumper who managed to get a meter away from his opponent. I feel like a broken record this morning.
When CFC kick out after point score, other teams man us up and put us straight under pressure. We often allowed Brisbane to easily kick short to a player. We did have the same number of players, didn't we?
2. Witches hats when Brisbane had the ball and heading deep into their forward line. Yes our guys do the right and run down there, but then some (like Motlop) seem to be mesmerised, just stand there and don't man up.
Plenty of effort at times , but not well directed.

Carlton's rebuild going to plan :

Carlton Respects is a brilliant initiative and makes a difference, a real difference in imperative areas throughout the community.
However, there needs to be a clear line and understanding between training/ on-field attitude and off-field behaviour. Come game day and once we hit the grass we are far too easy to intimidate and other clubs know it. Time to become pro-active with the ruthlessness and mongrel persistence, rather than learning how to 'cope' with an opponents aggression and seeking to absorb rather than create.
We played bruise free footy last night. Hope we don't throw a game per year based on social issues as opponents smell blood when they know our history to this event and it showed again.

I'm convinced that rebuilds don't work, period. And they don't work when your culture is ingrained mediocrity and hopelessness.
Norf and the Whorks are delusional if they are going to be anything other than hopeless for years. Chuck the weegles and Freo as well You need a once in a century coach for starters, and we don't have that person.

New day and the pain isn't as severe this morning. Maybe because I've had so many years of the same stuff I'm getting a bit immune? Thanks to peeps like PaulP and 3Lions who have a positive spin on things but I've already heard the phrase "flat-track bullies" used this morning on SEN and that really cuts to the core.
Hope the magoos have a few shining lights in this morning's game.

Prefer if we had Charlie Blue eating raw meat. Facts on the ground is we don't win games with "respect" at the forefront of players minds and it has to be replaced by "ruthless" ASAP.
Whether or not social issues have a place in sport is a separate issue.
Perhaps we should have a Carlton Caveman day, or get Bettina Arndt to organise a Carlton #mentoo day ? I guess we could say that we lost the Adelaide game because our team of "choirboys" was so enamoured with the city of Churches that they forgot to train and spent the time praying instead ? This sort of thinking belongs in the realm of astrology, like saying we lost because there was an Aquarius moon in a Taurus rising.
You, me and everyone else on here have no idea what was on the players minds. Fact is we lost the game the same way we lose all games - in general not playing 4 quarters and sloppy ball use.

I'd drop Young after that wimpy game he played last night but we have nothing to bring in apart from tall Durdin and I don't fancy him vs the Dogs talls.
Could understand why Voss yanked him off as he was pathetic with his physicality.
