Rd 12: Post Game Purgatory: Carlton vs St. Kilda

[shadesy]

I expected to be 6-6, i thought we would drop 1 out of Brisbane and St Kilda. Saints were good yesterday, strangled our space and waited for us to inevitably turn it over. We had no flow and guys i think have been reading the Press to much.

I actually have no problems with this loss and got on with life fairly quickly.

I think we need some help in the middle. Our midfield is basically:
Curnow, Cripps, Gibbs and Kerridge. Thomas as well. Sumner gives us little around teh contest, Lamb is raw (very pleased with him overall), Doc and Simmo to valuable down back.
Not a lot in the Ressies either, with Graham, Whiley and Tutt, but would not be adverse in bringing those guys in.

This is what annoyed me the most:



This was the 6th time Jack Steven received the ball from the Centre Clearance... in the exact same spot... In the 3rd quarter alone. Re-Watch the 3rd and watch where he receives the ball everytime. No effort to have athe sweeper, to block his run, to come off the wing.... Clearance, Mark, Goal...Repeat.
