Post Game Passion: AFL 2019 Rd 8: Carlton vs. Collingwood

[dodge]

But the fact remains...we're anchored to the bottom (again) and Adelaide would be licking their lips at the possibility of pick one in this year's draft.

Light anchor, I think.  Our % is better than four other teams.  We have shown that we can play some good footy.  While we have picked up a few injuries and we need our best 22 out there, I think some wins will come soon (not this week) and won't take long to leap frog some others.

I expect Williamson to be out for an extended period unfortunately.
Also unfortunate is I think Garlett will be back this week as a back flank. Can't think who else we'd bring in. Can't play Gov down back surely.
Could Kennedy come in?

Newman and Daisy on the flanks with Stocker in the pocket, we might try Casboult on your man Finlayson or even bring in Goddard.
Just hope Mummy isnt playing...Williamson must have some real doubts on his future, I'd be chatting to Tomlinson after the game if I was SOS...

Objectively both accurate statements.

One discusses a love of the new direction, while the other repeats concerns that the old ways have not yet left.

And sacking Bolton @ this point in time will reinforce that we haven’t learnt from the past and are in fact still repeating the same mistakes.
We are all devastated by the losses, but any 1/2 interested observer can stand back and see the progress being made, the wins will come.

Would I be happy? Telling it like it is. you can do that.

Not sure if you think a 10% record over 40 games is good 4th year into a rebuild but I don't. It's terrible! lose next week and that figure becomes single figues. Like in what universe is that acceptable.

Just don't have the right coach. always a risk getting someone who has played the same amount of AFL games as the rest of us. Needed to fix culture so having a bloke who hasn't played risks not getting full respect. Would do nothing to improve culture. May well be playing out that way. Something has to be it 4 from 40.

Respect is a big thing and I really can’t believe that you of all people are revelling in our and Boltons situation.
With your coaching background I really expected better of you Jim.
We are all wanting wins, you, me, Bolton and the players, but there’s usually smaller goals achieved before the 4 points.
I was talking the other day to a young SANFL footballer and an elite young cricketer, neither of whom supports Carlton but both were positively drooling at the potential they can see DEVELOPING @ Princess Park... it baffles me why you can’t ?

Mummy would be a massive out.

I agree Williamson is a real concern. Likewise Doc obviously. We've got a long term issue there.

Tomlinson is an unrestricted free agent I believe. I'd be all over him regardless as he can play so many positions.

So it seems we tried to bait (or troll) the Filth on the weekend by play Eagle Rock during our warm up on the ground (reported in the HS) today.
Good on em, try anything (within the rules) to get an edge.

Is it Carlton fans are sick of losing so take their frustrations out?
Or do we just have a lot of passion and still loathe Filth supporters?
Or are we just idiots, I mean it is only a game isn't it?
