I reckon we'll miss Jack.

Most definitely.

Going 5 / 1 is an imperative.  Particularly with our poor percentage.

Just remember this is the post-match thread. Pre-match commentary has its own thread.

9 players had less than 10 touches.  Owies, Setterfield, Parks, McKay, Curnow, Fisher, Martin, Durdin, Boyd.  At least 4 shouldn't see game time next week. (Fisher, Setterfield, Boyd, Durdin for starters)

Pitt isn't looking that bad. As soon as the game was over, he was shown walking onto the ground having a chat with Darcy and continued all the way to the race with the team. He didn't show any evident discomfort and was walking normally. It may be a few weeks rather than half the season. Let's pray that's the case.

No Pitt, no Carlton. Back to the Carlton of old, LOTS of passengers with a bare half dozen trying to drag us across the line. We have been lucky for a few weeks but we may now well be on downward trajectory. Don't even know where to start.

We’ll that was very patchy. The predominance of patches were the poor ones?‍?

We didn’t get our connection right making it hard for the forwards. Our defence needs a shake up. It was shaky all night. We have no way of stopping small forwards. Our kicking out of defence was amateur to say the least. It was like we lost all confidence in the most basic skills and couldn’t roll the dice or create, when it was needed.

Too many passengers will lose you games regardless of the opponent. I’m looking at Fisher, Setterfield, Durdin, Owies, Boyd, Newnes, Newman. They try hard but Parks and Cotterell get shown up when their mates don’t show up.

Young is improving each week. Not sure why he could mark the ball when Weiters would spoil, but good on him.

The usual mids, Saad, Doc busted a gut. Pitto going down so early made it very hard but I was pleased to see us score after halftime.

Teams have worked out that we depend on getting centre clearances to score.
We'll get over it, but we have plan B. We need to develop one and quickly.

We now play North, who play well against us, without the man that wins us games (Pittonet). We'll probably have to play Mirkov, no matter how raw he is, because Tom de Koning is not enough, no matter how he tries.

Hopefully, Pittonet isn't too badly hurt, because he is the missing link when we fail.
