Tackling harder, yes, buts thats because we have had more of the ball.
I think they've been luckier thus far.
The goal they got from the smother.
The banana kick from the wrong wide etc.
That free from the simpson shephard.
Our shots have been more structured, we just can't kick straight.
Wood missed everything.
Jones missed from 20m.
Everitt hit the post.
Army played on and kicked out on the full from a Jones free.
They've got a couple of cheap ones.
If we can learn to keep a player down at the marking contests, we'll be better for it.
Now lets see if Cas can kick....

Murph cant take a clean possession. Keeps having to try and grab the ball twice and losing it.
It's the physicality, we are no good under that sort of pressure, we start looking over our shoulder!
The senior guys are looking like a bunch of blokes who are thinking, "It's a rebuild!"

We simply cannot handball to advantage. We throw the ball on the boot like it's under 14's footy.
FFS give first option to a player in space

I hate to say this, because I love Carlton;
But we have a list full of Griggs, and a coach suffering dementia!
Next week they will be celebrating Mick, it might be a wake!

Again....winning contested possession and clearances.
Where are we losing it? Disposal efficiency. Can't find a teammate and can't kick through the big ones.
TBH, i'd be more worried if that was the other way around.
At least we can get our hands on the ball. We just need to improve our disposal and the game will turn.

The reason we have so many contested possessions is because we are so slow

Panicked disposals, because we don't like it tough, and nobody to give it to because of sh1te coaching!
Too many taggers!
Aints are kids we should come back, but that sort of start against good sides and it's over!
