Yes - because we tried to hit guys on leads..... chicken and egg here - when we got the ball, all forwards led out, the deliverer had no one deep, so kicked short to the lead etc etc. We stuffed up at 60m mark, or it spilled, they whisked it away and we were caught on the back foot. It happened endlessly for the first 45 minutes. And when they did bang it long, there was no-one there. Just plain dumb.
Play the percentages and play the conditions - took us 2 quarters of football to work that out.
This is now the longest premiership drought in the history of the Carlton Football Club - more evidence of climate change?
