Post Game Passion: AFL 2019 Rd 6: Carlton vs. Hawthorn

[flyboy77]

When you lose by a kick in an arm wrestle, you can wear it. But when you own the game and, again, surrender when real pressure is applied there is something amiss. As MM mentioned in his article, this aint about average age and he's right.

For those who argue we could be 3 and 3, I would suggest we could also be winless had the Dishlickers not made so many mistakes and persisted with silly match-up. 1-5 is where we sit and we obviously deserve that. Reality.

Whatever was said to our blokes at half time effectively sucked the confidence and boldness out of them.

This loss (another honourable/brave loss) was worse than the GC loss. We allowed a turnaround of just under 7 goals.

Opposition sides now know to apply bona fide pressure and to change styles... we'll fold under the pressure and our coaching box will fail to adapt and adjust to the change in style.

This is the INESCAPABLE truth.
