a. it's the first game of the season, and therefore a lot of emotion etc.
b. we got so close - if it was a 10 goal thumping, maybe you'd be feeling "normal".
Maybe.
Or that style,gameplay and effort is the best we have see from carlton for 17 years and really should have won against all odds..

Disappointed as we really should of won in the end but we finally have a platform to build off. Dumb errors, missed shots hurt but on the bright side we haven't seen this effort from Carlton since 2013. Alot of positives, alot of frustration.
Agree. Tiges aren't great, but they were more efficient tonight, played smarter and got the job done when it mattered. You can't win week after week if you don't get reward for effort. Too many missed shots on goal will kill any team

Well, I saw better in 2011, but that's my standard response these days...............

Nup Ratts never had them like that.

Couple of times we went back to the old bombing the ball forward ways.
Too many times our players got pegged carrying the ball, that is a sign we still aren't talking enough.

Shadesy, quit fooling around.

It is not an Everitt vs Cas discussion though who have different roles.
Cas played such a great game but hoping he just had a bad day at the office with his kicking which came good last year. Calling for him to be dropped is so naive though as Cas was the key link in the chain to transition the ball from defense to forward which is one of the most important aspects of the game with pressing / flooding / zones / etc.
Everitt is weak. Gets pushed around. Limp efforts. Can't tackle. The number 2 in the G column doesn't cover all sins.

I hope you are being funny. Ratts problem was they attacked but never pressured, zoned and worked for each other like the did tonight. We have Judd, Waite and Betts tonight and we win by 5 goals.

Bring in SOS jr. for Everitt.
Byrne for White.
