Mullet, O'Shea, Rowe, Graham, Kerridge and Lamb aren't good enough and never will be, if we're going to be beaten by 100 points it might as well be with a team of kids who might make the grade one day.
Throw Casboult in as well, while he's our key forward we'll always be a laughing stock.
Play the kids and roll the dice, what have we got to lose?
Garlett played a shocker but he's young and hasn't played much football, give him another 20 games and if he's still doing bugger all cut him.
What is it that makes us think that players who aren't good enough at other clubs will morph into AFL standard footballers at Carlton?
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.

This must be the year for breaking records.
That was Dees biggest win in quarter of a century :-[
That's a very long time in anyone's books. I wonder what other records we'll help topple this year. Moreover, how does the club keep our budding talent from looking further afield?
Can only imagine it's very difficult for the players, particularly with our 2's struggling as well.
It's going to be a very long season. I hope we at least get our injuries sorted.

Let’s get real
O’Shea, Garlett, Jones, Thomas, Rowe, Mullett and Kerridge VFL at best
Kerr, Dow, McKay, SPS, OBrien wouldn’t be playing in many other teams
Probably left out a number of others, but it’s 50% of the side, so that’s the issue

Too true. We just had no idea and no answers. Comprehensively and systematically dismantled today.
Reality always wins in the end.

I've had that injury myself when I was about Murphy's age, it's very painful but it can clear up very quickly, I went from hobbling to running freely almost overnight.

In BB's learning environment I hope he took notes today and learns quickly.

Don't mind Lamb. We seemed to have found a role for him. Rowe I don't mind usually but would prefer we go with Marchbank and Weitering when they are ready again. Maybe rowe's experience with the other two might be useful for this year still but that's it. Kerridge is ok for depth but that's all as is Graham. Don't play when other's are up and going.
The only thing I got out of today's game was in the first half with the McKay, Kerr combination for the future. Poor buggers had no hope in the second half. Those two and Curnow, who can play key position, 3rd tall or even midfield, are a forward line we can base ourselves around for many years.

Problem is that "overnight" comes months later.

What is wrong with our people bringing back injured players. Kennedy, who's obviously never been right since round 1, Marchbank now Murphy all to struggle because they were far from ready to return. We are run by friggen idiots.
x2.....Murphy wasnt fit and should have come back through the twos slowly, its not like we are playing for sheep stations....Kennedy is a worry IMO and Marchbank who is also injury prone needs the Weitering treatment in the twos for a couple of weeks to prove his fitness...

Depends on whether it's a full or partial tear, or if it's just a strain.

I feel there is more to this than BB, it looks like there is more to this than BB, I wonder if he is being undermined.
