Re: Post Game Passion: AFL 2019 Rd 4: Carlton vs. Gold Coast - LoveNavy - 04-14-2019
There were certainly many critical moments we can bang on about.
Ed v Bowes stoppage snap, Dow or Charlie's poor i50 brain fade v 2m Peter's, kicking to Gibbons repeatedly v a talented AFL players....
In the end our poor skill and decisions left us short. I don't think GC would be any happier with their equally poor performance.
I thought we were:
Thrashed in the ruck yet didn't play to Witts dominance
So so in the midfield
Picked a tall fwd line yet didn't play to their advantage
Add MK and many more opportunities avail
Nonetheless a very winnable game goes begging.
A few who impressed
Jones and Weiters with good support from Daisy
Crippa (q1 aside), Samo, Fisher in patches, and of course Walsh. Dow solid inside and on the burst, let down by disposal.
Murphy provided the smarts. However, there were just too many poor decisions particularly going i50.
We also struggled to get the ball out of defense over the centre of the ground, especially q1.
In all. we gave GC the win. Addressing a few of the obvious faults and yes, we would have won.

who pick and choose when they want to get serious.....
I call it Gibbs/Murphy syndrome!

It's a worry Eb1, because it seems to be habitual!

Sounds like Murphy stood up today, without him we'd have been out of it by 3/4 time!

He should play twos and learn how hard he needs to work.
He has elite endurance and doesn’t use it
We need him to be a star not another jack watts

Surely Gibbo should be axed this week, hasn't added to the goal tally which is his spot currently, why hasn't he had mins in the midfield? Who replaces him? poulsen? Don't think so, we don't really have a small forward who scores, Wright in the last few yrs was the best option,

GC had a small D50, look at our bottom ranked players.
20th Casboult
21st McGovern
22nd McKay

Culture
We have been poor in that area for 16 years.
Too many pedestrians

I believe this is a reflection on the prevalent playing group culture which is the result of a lack of the right attitudes within our senior group over many years. We need to take some drastic action here imo.

Murphy was ok today but put in a few shocking kicks like many others....

For the other 60mins it was largely a mess of skill errors and lack of poise. We have so many dumb footballers and have done for years and years. When the pressure came on in the last quarter we wilted as we always do.
I can't see how Bolton can keep his job next year. 4 games in and we are rock bottom on the ladder again. You can't sugar coat the fact that we can't score, and cant play anything more than the 10-15 mins of AFL standard football before we start to look like a VFL team.
Here a great stat from today - they had 96 marks in total for the day. 71 of those came from our kicks. 3 out of 4 of their marks came from intercepts!
Hmm. I had the same recurring nightmare for four weeks now. We play 2 good patches or quarters of football and then go to sleep and get rolled.
