Rd 20; Carlton vs St Kilda: Post Game Profanity

[crashlander]

Very very flat this week - just did not look motivated. Going through the motions late in the season I guess against a lively Saints outfit which showed better skills and greater interest. Hopefully we can spark up and play a lot better next week. 

Skills: they certainly had them and we didn't. We were fine until we got to the point of kicking the ball into the forward line. Then .....
St Kilda certainly wanted it more. They played well and we were flat as a tack.
We may have played poorly and made too many mistakes, but our coaching staff did address some of the issues from last time and did it pretty well. But we had 6 good players. The rest didn't turn up.
Our defence really had holes for the first time in ages. Our midfield wasn't that bad: many of the flaws from last time were addressed and we did win there. But our forward line was non existent and the way we kicked into the forward line was indescribably bad.
