Post Game Analysis: AFL 2021 Rd 11: Carlton vs Sydney

[crashlander]

We need a clean out on and off the field. We are so far from being a good side. So many players that promise so much but deliver so little. Our coaching lacks creativity and reeks or predictability. I am.so dis heartened, year after year I build up my belief in what we are doing and never learn. My son is now a teenager and never known a good Carlton side. A generation of supporters are just about done and the club has no one but themselves to blame.

Oh, I think injuries have their share as well: we haven't had a full list once this century. Not even for a single game.

But you are right in essence.
[1]Our game plan lacks spark. It is too predictable for our opponents, but not predictable enough for our players.
[2] For all the positives about it, and there are positives, when it gets to the forward line, we forget everything and bomb the ball too often.
[3] We still have the structural problems we've had for years. We do not seem to attract mature recruits, the way Melbourne has. We do not develop enough of our draftees. Not one of them looks like making the contribution that Sydney's are making.
[4] For a side with the best fitness man i the business, we fail repeatedly in last quarters.
[5] Our disposal simply doesn't seem to improve, no matter how many times we identify the problem.

We have a few false dawns, and we do have some underlying talent, but even Hawthorn have a better game structure than we do and they are hopeless.
I like Teague, but we don't appear to making any progress. We still show the ineptitude that has become synonymous with Carlton this century.
