AFL Rd 8 2023 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs Brisbane

[shawny]

There was one stat i saw during the game that completely summed up the game.

Scores from turnovers
Brisbane 11 goals (they had 12 at the time).

Fix that, fix the game.

It was clear that our poor skill errors cost us the game.[quote author=kruddler link=msg=389039 date=1683336692]

We were up against a legit top 4 side who have done it over a number of years.
We have not even made finals for 10+ years. This result was to be expected somewhat.
We are coming.....but we are not there yet.

Time to face facts and take the blue glasses off.

Fixing unforced errors is not as easy as you make it sound. You don’t click your fingers and fix this. The list is filled with blokes that crack under pressure they did it late last year when they thought they may actually play finals and again this year everytime a team applied heat.

Unforced errors are what bottom and mid tier teams cant control especially under pressure and it costs them goals and games most week. We are no different hence why we are in that group of teams and not where we all hoped we would be.
