In Game Action: AFL Rd 23: Carlton vs. GWS at Marvel

Is Cripps injured (afl match stats)

Also says Newman off injured

That turnover from Kennedy is symptomatic of two things about our team.  Firstly, Turnovers have killed us all year.
Secondly, most of our players lack a football brain. What you just saw Ed Curnow do, is a prime example of both. The man is 45 metres out and clear, why not take the shot. Instead he passes to Honey.

The old p1ss poor midfield, forward line connect is rearing its ugly head... under pressure, old habits emerge. Kicks into the forward line that land on opponents chests is, as you say no. 2, p1ss poor footy IQ. :

Casboult not even running

There's the drop off - 40pt turnaround ?

[Baggers]

Old habits creeping back. Newnes too focussed on getting his man off the ball rather than attacking the aggot and beating him too it. In the first qtr, we were attacking the aggot... get a message to them, TT, to attack the aggott, don't fear your opponent or a mistake.

You can do this, BlueBaggers... need a steadier, now!!!

[PaulP]

Dow on as sub.

[Baggers]

Act, TT, act!!! Makes a change or two... give them something to think about... get creative.

[LoveNavy]

Cripps subbed out

There's the drop off - 40pt turnaround ?

39...lol.

If you want to know just one reason why Teague needs to go, here it is.

The concept of taking ownership, does not exist in our team. Charlie Curnow could have taken ownership and kicked for goal. What does he do, passes it to his brother who is in a perfect position to have a shot, after all he's kicked bananas from 40 metres out on the boundary line.

We have seen player after player pass from 40-50 metres out from goal all year,  to a player in a worse position. I have never been able to understand why the coach would not give one instruction which would apply to every player on the ground. If you are within that 50 metre arc, take ownership and have the shot for goal.
