AFL Rd 22 2024 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs Hawthorn

[PaulP]

So the questions remain:

Who is responsible for our always-injured players being retained?
Who is responsible for putting injured players back before they’re ready?
Who is responsible for the fitness of our players?

Because that’s been a complete Fail.

Or is it a matter we recruited X amount of alwsys injured players then tried to paper over the issues until it overcame us?

I understand the temptation, but I'd be wary of playing the blame game. In a complex system like a football club, there's many moving parts, and it's not easy even for those inside the four walls to disentangle the issues, let alone those of us at a distance. I understand angry supporters, much like their ancient tribal predecessors, feel satiated by the prospect of a juicy scalp, but our club has a sorry track record of taking proven performers from other clubs and dragging their name through the mud. My 2 cents.
