2017 Round 5: In game angst: Carlton vs Port Adelaide

What, positive commentary?

Yep, half time they take over from the fools commentating on 7 and actually analyse what's going on, I'm taking their positive comments on board, the alternative of of Sh.t canning everyone all the time is far less appealing

We move it so slowly that we're kicking to a F50 more crowded than a freeway in peak hour. In the end we have to bomb. We need to move the ball on so much more quickly so we can open it up in our F50. Much easier to hit a target when a forward can run into space. Currently the way we play drives me insane.

The good teams kick long low flat kicks to their forwards advantage. We seem to just roost in vaguely in the direction of the goal.

Frustrating to watch our older experienced players butcher simple shots at goal.

Despite all of that we have created enough scoring chances to be well in contention if they'd been converted. It's that final part we just cannot execute.

We do not know how to kick goals........ set shots on the run whatever.... I'm sooo farrrrking sick of watching us pissssing our goals away

Flyboy. FFS brother.
They're a bloody yoing team learning. Younger than most.
They are trying to keep possession of the ball. They have to learn that 1st and foremost. When they get that confidence, quicker ball movement will come.
Support the team brother.
Be proud to say you were watching these babies grow before your very eyes when they do turn it around and become a force in the future.

That first 12 minutes of the game has hurt.

[Gointocarlton]

Game well and truly over

[Professer E]

Phillips is a traffic cone tonight.... Useless.

[townsendcalling]

Weitering full back, ruck Casboult and Rowe and just leave Phillips in the square.

My son has just asked to follow another team.
He has been a member since he was 2mths old.
He is 14 now.
He is over the garbage we have delivered over his lifetime.
We are shit and will be shit for another 15 years.
