Post Game Analysis: AFL 2021 Rd 1: Carlton vs Richmond - crashlander - 03-17-2021
I know what I want to happen. I dare to dream.
Will I be having nightmares? Fill in this thread when we know.

Well, ran out of gas and bundle dropped in the last few minutes but nowhere near as bad a loss as I feared. Still gutted though and we need to regroup and refocus for next week - must win that and not let this be looked upon as an heroic loss. We made some bad errors.

Riewoldt saying some kids we heavily invested in at the draft are not looking up to it.
No prizes for guessing who fits that bill.
Then doubles up and singles out Lochie OBrien for his stuff ups.
.....but i'm being negative.

I've given up hoping... I'm now wishing
20 yrs of no success is long enough chaps.

O'Brien spent most of last year playing nothing matches in the boonies. He comes up against the reigning premiers, and is found wanting. Maybe he should be given a string of senior matches to get up to speed ? He was never going to come in and look up to speed.

He has never looked up to speed.
Dow looked more up to speed in game 1 than lob does now.
I want him to succeed, I really do, but I can't fathom what the club sees in him.
You are the MC. You have 21 players picked and are looking for the 22nd.
You have LOB, cottrell and a half fit betts at your disposal. Who do you pick to help you win the game?

Disappointed again to start another season with a loss.
We looked out of puff in last quarter which is very odd considering we had a one month longer preseason then they did and have the fitness god everyone raved about.
Really liked the look of a few of the new guys. Fogarty works very hard and users it well and thought Saad also worked well into the game and was as good defensively as offensively. Both will be good pick ups based on that showing.
Walsh is an out and out star who has a tank like rob harvey. Kane Cornes just has to admit it after that display against the be eh best.
Liked plowmans game , gibbons and thought fisher was handy and looked dangerous. Cripps faded bad when we needed him most which hurt us but started like a train.
Overall all things considered we pushed the best team In it to 4 goals and if not for some
Unlikely 50 metre penalties felt more like a 2
goal loss.
We get Williams and hopefully Martin back and if we can continue to play to that level we will definitely be in the mix for a top 8 finish. Would likely have accounted for all but a top 4 team tonight imo so let’s not paint the picture we are a basket case pls.

The will is there. Rushed at some crucial times when we should have slowed it down a little. Next week will tell us more about our year. Williams will make a difference.
