2018 Rd 17: Post Game whatever : Carlton vs Hawthorn
#41
I still believe in what they’re doing and losing Gibbs and Doch and all the ongoing injuries just hurt more and more.

But when we get a run on, we look good! We are bottom of the ladder, the youngsters are hurting, the old ones are fried - we will go again next year and see. If this time next year it’s same old then there has to be changes made. But until then...

On the commentators, it’s pretty lazy commentating to just continue putting the boot in.  Ffs D King said the punch to Cripps’ jaw was unintentional.  Kellie corrected him and said that was clearly intentional. They lose credibility when they speak sh*t

We've paid out on all mythical bets on Fitzroy 1996 beating the 2018 Carlton side in an imagination match.
2012 HAPPENED!!!!!!!

We were just outclassed.
The fact that we were able to kick a few goals in a row indicates we were still trying....their effort just dropped off.
Clarkson wouldn't have been happy...and any day that Clarkson isn't happy can't be all bad. Wink
Well I wouldn't have described us as putting in a lot of effort. I saw plenty of players standing in space, not chasing and watching Hawthorn players run off them harder into the forward 50.
Today was a combination of poor attitude, bad tactics (our zone defence is just deplorable and must be abandoned), lazy running and terrible skills.
When one or two players have bad attitude, are a bit lazy and can't kick you can point the finger at the individual. When an entire team plays that way you have to look at the coaching group and question if you've got the right brains sending messages to the feet.

To add to those injuries Bolton thinks Fisher may have fractured his leg:

Clean up the disposal,  ditch that FUcKing useless zone defence and swapout the dead wood for blokes that can actually play we will be 1000 percent better. Giving a rats counts for a lot too.

I don't give a flying rats who you are but trying costs nothing.  Levi Casboult was piss weak today and guilty of not trying,  and that's not only inexcusable but that attitude spreads through the team faster than head lice through a kindergarten.  I'd tell this continual non-performer to clean out his locker tommorrow morning,  down right disgraceful from him today.

Howell is going to have a bad day with the MRO. Deliberate punch on Cripps, trip on Fisher fracturing his ankle. He won be seeing any action before the finals.

The trip should be a month if it breaks a leg,  the punch should be classed as a strike,  intentional,  head contact and medium impact... Two weeks.

But don't forget the against Carlton discount,  if he's unlucky hell get a fine for the trip and a week for the second.

A real side would have hospitalised the prick.

We can't keep going backwards and seeming unprepared, insipid, with a confusing game plan. These kids need an experienced bloke with his own team of assistants to give the present list something to look forward to next year... not more of the same, nuh.

x2....We are non competitive......thats the bottom line, not sure how long you can keep going like this before change has to happen..
Tactically we are horrible...zone defense isnt working and while the multi premiership coach found it fit to tag Cripps with Howe we just allowed Mitchell to wander around on his own all day and gave
him three brownlow votes...this is after OMeara was pulled out and it left Worpel and ORourke as the Hawks main mids behind Mitchell. How does that make sense? they are down to one main mid and we let him run around on his own. Its not Auskick.....
