Post Game Passion: AFL 2019 Rd 6: Carlton vs. Hawthorn

[flyboy77]

Have a look at the game again and have a look at how many goals we gifted them from mistakes and turnovers in front of their goal (inside 25m). The Jones one was the worst, SPS's one was very bad also. Kicking across the face of goal killed us.

And the LOB run down. u/11 stuff.

Marchbanks out on the full?.......we got the wobbles and the Hawks smelt fresh meat....McEvoy wasnt meant to keep going all day either and like I said if we keep letting the opposing teams
best mid run around unmanned for most of the day and rack up 40 plus then you cant expect to win.....we are every slow learners.

When Ed Curnow and Plowman get a lot of the ball we have problems.

Their disposal is pretty limited. Plowman had a dead set shocker.

Too much stop, poop yourself, turnover.

I was hoping Williamson would come in for Plowman but Simmo and Newman got injured of course.

Cripps had his worst game in a long while. Kreuzer started well but faded out in the second half.

PaulP. Walls isn’t working an active role for game day coaching.

I was watching on the telly, and Walls was sitting on the bench. He doesn't need to be an active coach - if he sees something, I'm sure he would let Bolts know.

They put us under pressure at the kickin's and during those kicks across the front of goal and we folded.  We didn't get near to doing that to them and allowed too many easy exits from the back line. Can only hope that BB can learn from that.

Correct. Tag O'Meara and they've got nothing.

[Baggers]

Which means that an entire coaches box of people, plus Docherty, plus Walls, are missing the same things week after week after week, even though the experts on here can all see it.

So, so funny.

Walls is a mentor, not a game day assistant coach. And if you watch closely when Doc is talking with BB on the boundary, he's being ignored (no acknowledgment)... a small thing, but maybe indicative. Had the Dishlickers not made so many errors last week we could easily be zip 6.

When you lead by 30pts at half time, you should never be in the situation where the last 2 seconds of the game is so critical.

Gotta take your hat off to Clarkson. Slowed us down in the second then took over in the 3rd, with a side that's not nearly as good as ours on paper... but experienced coaching / man management showed us how it's done.

Another 'brave' loss. This one should hurt more than the GCSs game.

How we respond to this will be telling.

Cripps got tagged by Howe and Worpel at times, we didnt help him out enough...you are right on Kreuzer, he tired and that hurt us badly in the 3rd quarter.
You can add Marchbank to Plowman...terrible disposal and you cant blame Bolton for that, be glad when Williamson and Newman are both in the backline together bringing the ball out.

[PaulP]

The coach is not the problem. This game was won and lost by players who are still leaning and gelling together. Rookie (and not so rookie) mistakes got us in the end.

He said he has NO input at all on game day
