Rd 3: Carlton vs Gold Coast: Pre Game Premonitions

[PassIt2Carrots]

I think that is unfair...90% of the team put in all day. They came out hard after half time, and fought right to the very end in Junk time, where Malthouse teams would have been blown out by 100+

It was hard work turning the ball over at half forward every time and getting smashed at the stoppages. Effort and competitiveness was there, class was not and it didnt help that our "midfield" leaders didnt want to crack in and were fumbly.

Spot on mate. How can we progress when these blokes pick and choose? They are supposed to set an example. Murphy has been nowhere near as bad as Gibbs but he has to stop throwing himself on the deck looking for cheap frees when the pressure comes. That is not leadership.
