We shall win all four just coz
You don't understand the game i assume by the majority of your posts including this one but fwiw no Carlton don't have a better list but when you get a list that is not that great that does not execute to a reasonable standard and lacks effort, yes you can be beaten by a an inferior list to your own. Simple enough for you ? Don't bother replying because if I read another of your inane responses my ******* head will explode.

Sometimes but usually I admire a bit of blunt honesty don't change.
I have posted plenty of positive content about this year and as much critical content. The one thing I will not do is blame Longmire for poor execution of players or their apathy. He does not get off the hook with me on a lot of things but Today he is not to blame. However I think me and you are on the same page when it comes to some of the inane rubbish that gets regurgitated here day in day out.

I doubted him but Horse was right again. Kieren Jack in for James Rose was definitely the match-winning move.
That wasn’t a sook. I thought yours was quite a level headed analysis. I was more talking about the guys who sound like they’re about to have an aneurysm whenever we lose. Also ones who go rabid at Longmire whenever a kick goes astray. I just don’t understand why they have to be so apoplectic with rage all the time. We’re a young, average, inconsistent team. It’s unreasonable to expect champagne football this season, but it’s looking far from hopeless from where I stand.

So, what were our game day issues today and what would your game day response have been?
I didn't realise I was being asked to take over the coaching position.
Do you agree with King and Mooney when they say "you know what you are going to get with Longmire"? Do you think this is a good or a bad thing?

You ask this question week in and week out. Any chance you can come up with something?

You're not. You have very definite and clear views about Longmire and from your posts today you place this loss at his feet, so, what were the mistakes and what would you have done today?

Why would I come up with arguments for a position I don't hold?

Is this the most non-Longmire press conference?
None of the young team, etc.
Longmire: We got well beaten around the footy. #1 rule in footy is you have to win the ball. Carlton played well, they were hard and fierce.
Longmire: Our communication wasn’t great around stoppages.
Longmire: you need to kick easy goals. We mucked up opportunities going forward with skill error or decision making and didn’t get those easier goals. Everything flows on the back of that.
Longmire: Lance won’t play next week. Macca will play reserves we will see how he goes. Darcy Cameron did his quad this week which is really unfortunate.
Longmire: Michael Knoll or Joel Amartey are option, Robbie Fox has also done some rucking. We just have to get through it.
Longmire when asked about conditions: It was swirly, as windy as we have played out there on the SCG. Scoreboard accuracy makes an impact on the game obviously. That’s just another thing you have to play with though, they were playing in the same conditions.

Hayward Florent Ronke all need a spell next week. Simply haven't been AFL standard.

Nice, will consolidate our first pick at 5 or even 4 or could we get to 3? I've watched the kids around those picks and they are really impressive. I know, this isn't the draft thread

I know its a well worn cliche often used but think its apt... f u Longmire and the morons that appointed him, cant believe we've got 4 more years of his idiocy.
Positives
It was nice sitting in the sun.
Decent crowd for 14th vs 17th.
Effort was there.
Dawson’s goal in the first.
Negatives
Poor execution where we missed with handballs or couldn’t even bounce the ball.
Longmire allowed Carlton to have the spare in their backline in the last which cost us. Kicking the ball backwards is high risk as it also cost us with a turnover and the match sealing goal.
Ruck situation is a mess.
Two weeks in a row we’ve lost without a genuine ruck. Aliir has gone a good job but Reid was well beaten by Kruezer early in the last when they won the game. However we may not have any other options.

You listen to what David King has to say. That explains it all.
