2018 Rd 15: In Game Attitude: Carlton vs Brisbane

[Barbs]

To all our players, but more specifically our mids, defenders and coaches; see the guys in that funny maroon uniform running past you towards goal? STAND NEXT TO ONE OF THEM!!!! Run with them, tackle them and above all DON’T LET THEM HAVE SPACE ALL ALONE IN FRONT OF GOAL!!!!!

Complete lack of intensity ,self  believe & desire today ...

[Barbs]

Who is playing on Hipwood?

The zone. Guess that means Charlie Curnow

[crashlander]

Over 100 possessions down at this point. Not good enough!

[Micky0]

A little bit of continuous pressure please for f*cks sake!

Inexcusable.

Embarrassed to be a Carlton supporter, yet again.

[shawny]

Polson is a dud.

Runs like a forking headless chook. And that’s his only strength.

Does absolutely nothing. Nothing. Ever.

But let’s keep playing him.

9 Bris players have more processions than our highest pocession winner.  What does that say?

When an opposition ruckmen runs circles around your small and medium mids in traffic you know you've got a problem.

Our mids and forwards do feck all, the defence are being swamped and there is no effort to press into defence by 2/3rds of our team! Compare that to Beams or Zorko saving goals on the last line!

Of our defenders only Weitering and Thomas are actually making an effort to get to the football, the rest are just spectators and finger pointers guarding turf!

Jones takes a thousand intercepts marks but does feck all else, he offers no support for team-mates, he is taking his craphouse F50 efforts and recreating them in D50!

Marchbank, first game back looks soft and unwilling to do the hard stuff.

Rowe is having a bad day, but he's being used like Inspector Gadget!

That's coaching! Whan you decide to plan that zoning game plan in winnable game the players have no idea about then you get this results. Confusion and crap. coaching! Injuries or not, one win tells the story. down from 7 and 6.

We insist on standing 10m off our opponents at all times no matter what. Brisbane have kicked the ball well and simply cut us to pieces as a result.

Coach issue. Our drafting has been way better than it used to be. Every player we've picked in the last 3 years has shown ability. Just poorly drilled.

Spotlights on the drafting Jim...we lack talent, we cant compete with VFL standard players with poor skill levels....
Coaching is poor but SOS is under the pump IMO...GWS list hasnt lived up to the hype and our list rebuild looks like it either stalled or failed.....
The buck stops somewhere....I know we have injuries but we have no depth and a over reliance on two players....
