2024 Practice Match Carlton vs Melbourne
#41
Oh by the way, praccy match or not, we have to travel to the Gabbatoir in a little over a weeks time. If we play like tonight, they will make an utter mess of us. Its concerning that we are playing like this on our home deck a week out from the real stuff. I expected a sharper effort than this. I hope the Xmas bath water drinking sessions didn't happen.

2018-Wooden Spoon
2019-16th
2020-dare to dream? 11th is better than last I suppose
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time

We would hopefully play with more intensity. The rest follows.

That last part though is my worry I must admit.

Haven't kicked any goals yet but dumped a few out on the full.

Don't care about intensity as it's a practice game but our ball movement is terrible.

If it was a hot windy evening in some country town, I'd say "Oh well". But to play as shambolic as as we have on a ground that we we know (or should know) every blade of grass and have trained on all summer? Its a real worry.
Ollie Hollands has been our best player by the length of the Flemmington straight.

Last 10 min we have lifted our intensity and looked like our old selves. At least the old selves from the 2nd half of last year.

Yeah when Gawn went off for an extended rest. Watching H and Schache in the ruck hurt my eyes.
