Did anyone else here the post match interview with Sam Doc on the ABC, said they couldn't pin point the issues, seems to be a lot of things on field, they're sticking together to work throuh it..he was very open and up front.
Asked for us supporters to hang in there, "I grew up a Carlton supporter and stuck with them through the really tough times I know what its like keep coming to the games, hang in there we'll turn it around"
Highly impressive young bloke, Love Him

You shouldn't be shouted down for it. It's spot on imo.
Don't get me wrong, his 4 goals were great. In a losing side, 4 goals isn't a bad effort. Disposing the footy at 37% is absolutely atrocious though. Unfortunately last night, his bad outweighed the good.
But again, he wasn't alone. There were about 20 other blokes that were as bad, if not worse than Menz.

People around here aren't themselves at the moment...you're welcome anytime.
I'm actually off to the 'G tomorrow, taking my best mate and his daughter...she's a Doggies fan.
Looking forward to barracking for a real team...

Correct me if I'm wrong .. only it appears to me, and I'm sure I'm not the only one .. that leaving it up to the players to choose whether they are applying enough (tackling) pressure on the opposition isn't exactly working. It would mean having to work harder .. and I'm not convinced they like to do that.
I grew up on Carlton being the one quarter specialists to win matches.
I doubt the need to work hard for 4 qtrs has sunk in at Carlton over recent decades.. whereas, at the top sides .. it has.
Absolutely. Each applicant will have various ideas of tactics and player development; the club will then be able to make an informed decision.
Clarkson stood out when Hawthorn went through this process.
John Elliot said during the week that the club should appoint Worsfold because he is a proven coach, a premiership coach
Some people never learn.
......kicking 4 goals a week, no one would give 2 hoots.
If you want a game based on DE, take out the goal posts and make them run in circles.

I'm not by any means saying that Mick isn't telling them to apply tackling pressure, I'm just saying that solely pinning the blame on him for their lack of effort is quite bemusing.
We have issues on top of issues.
Even our interchange can't get things right. All night they stuffed up who was going on and who was going off, who was on who and who was where. It was seriously an absolute joke. The players were just lost.
To see the players up close was so, so sad. Seeing Cripps come off, pull out his mouth guard and show such devastation was heart breaking. Judd I think has become numb to it all.
Sad times.

I don't claim to.
That's 3 posts from the thousands that are posted everyday. It's almost insignificant. People bitch and moan about everry other aspect of the club but the admin is exempt?
If you haven't noticed the supporters are voting with their feet.
How effective is unconditional support ? Clearly it's working a treat.
What about an unaccountable board? How's that going?
What about our former Prez, or the current one?
All great stuff Aph.
Yeah .. totally agree. I'm sure Carlton supporters like myself would be a lot more patient with Mick if they could at least see the players having a red hot go each week. But then .. as Mick says .. the buck stops with him. If the players are not responding .. either the players or the Coach have to go.
Kicking out the Coach is the easy option .. only would this be simply another .. in a long line of Carlton mistakes?
My opinion only

Give it a rest passmark.
You have made your point in several threads and no need to derail this thread pushing your negative agenda.
Final warning!
say what you want we are a 5 goal better team with ellard in it
why do we keep playing armfield, deadest 15 touches a game an nothing,why can't a smith or co play that role,
Apart from a few horrible clangers, Armfield shut down motlop and was one of the only ones who converted a set shot from more than 30ms
Positives from last night. Simmo and Doc and Murph won't stop trying. Menz gets a PB. Jones took 7 marks (maligned but he's not out worst). Bucks was lively when subbed in and had nice long penetration in his disposal.
Looked like a small gameplan shift to a more run and corridor use
Negatives
Tackling........diabolical
Two way running......non-existent
Playing injured/sore players
2 ruckman
Zach way way way out of form
Non selection of KPP's

Tuohy has really lost it in the past two years. Needs to get some form back in the VFL.

They would if 37.5% results in 3 goals the other way.
4 goals is a good effort but there's no doubt he needs to be better with the pill.
