Cripps, Weitering and Jsos probably shouldn't have played but Vossy had to as you needed the win to have any chance of the finals.

Now it's done you put ppl into surgery and play the kids like the Campos, the Youngs etc and see if they're up to standard.

Hey we're rubbish but I've loved watching 11 kids debuting having a dip whilst our experienced players do sweet FA.

Graeme Wright clearly has some big decisions and some tough calls to make on the list (like we do).

Stick fat. Re-set. I'll be cheering you on live v Melbourne in a couple of weeks.

I don't see Vossy dropping his faves. Some have been woeful the entire season and they are still untouchable.

Please Carlton, I beg of you ... if you aren't going to do or say something meaningful this week ... just shut up. Don't send out a player to spout rhetoric. Don't send out the President to say we are all in this together.

Don't put out stories of an AFLW player re-signing or either squad having fun at training, or answering trivia questions, or tell us what music they are listening to this week.

Say nothing. Leave us to our own recovery. No build up, no footage of previous Collingwood clashes. No photos of football clinics, hospital visits, or somebody's pet.

Frankly, it all feels like a slap in the face, like you are just trying to further the non-core aspects of the club.

And for the love of god, don't utter the word 'response' again. It's embarrassing.
 
When Clarkson won the 2013 premiership, his assistant coaches were Leon Cameron, Brendan Bolton, Adam Yze, Adam Simpson, Luke Beveridge and Brett Ratten. Chris Fagan ran the football department. Look at our assistant coaches over the last 10 years or more and General Football manager.
 
I actally feel sorry for Voss. His post match press conference you can see he was visualy stressed. I am sure he is a good bloke with the best intentions but he is just lacking in the tactics department. As for the players they are just pathetic and act like they are a bunch of sooks. Those senior players out there brought nothing but hey they still get their paypacket. I truly hope there is a big cleanout. I'm tired of watching these sooks.
 
Why would he or anyone else want to come to Carlton?

Because he can become a fast millionaire and never have his performances questioned. Being a Carlton player is an incredibly cushy gig.
 
Look... Cripps played poorly, but he was sick and still played better than 80% of the team.

I give him credit.
Cripps sick, Weiters injured, Doc should have retired by now, Acres about 1/10 the player he was... guys like Mots just taking the piss seemingly.

Lord played (again) on a wing - wtf.

Hollands off a HB flank still a fail (though granted, not the biggest problem presently)

TDK has looked like he checked out weeks ago - let's not beat around that bush....

I reckon Young is ok, but why not play Lemmey as the 2nd key forward - Young ain't that...

Yes, looks like the players want Voss gone - who can blame them....

The 'game plan' is non existent.
 
F the players.
If they don’t like the coach they can leave.
Tail has been wagging the dog for 3 decades now.
Enough…..get rid of the players if they can’t handle the coach, bad luck.
I’d take another rebuild if it meant getting the shit out of the club.
that's silly.

Ratts sacked - bad call... even back to Wayne Brittain effectively shafted too.

Pagan, Malthouse, Bolton and Teague simply all bad choices....

Voss too seemingly - GW not a fan - and no one anywhere has anything good to say about his game plan.

Not even the AWOL President!

If Voss is on his last legs. Then call out the players that think they’re bigger than club. Bench them, drop them. Stop carrying them. then in a Bellamy style approach - it’s next man up. Stop taking the sh*t and get angry.
Would love to see it. But as you say don’t think we’re going to see it.
Voss has shown time and time again he won't make tough calls at the selection table - and clearly has favourites.

Picking Doc for that final last year was senseless.... reeked of desperation.

Ditto picking TDK and having him on the pine....

Than there was Matty K. Voss lost me there.
 
I'm sure someone's already mentioned it but seeing Charlie squirting Alir and Asava with a water bottle when we were already getting thrashed at the start of the game shows where his head is at... Try getting the ball and maybe kicking a goal? Really disappointed by many of the senior players at the club, don't know where to start really
that was total d%$k head stuff.
 
In all seriousness and in spite of whatever efforts one or two of them show, we will NOT be going anywhere with Acres, Cerra, Docherty, Fogarty, McGovern and Williams in this side. They are all major liabilities.

In an ideal situation, they alongside the obvious De Koning are not in the round one side next year.

Picking sick or injured players - dumb as...

Voss has no answers - yes the players don't do themselves any favours, but Voss gets paid serious coin to get them in order, playing good footy.... consistently.

He has failed. Over and over. Year 4 of his tenure and we're worse off frankly.

It is an easy conclusion to reach.

Cerra has been a major disappointment frankly.

Looks a shadow of his former self.... and no injury issues afaiaw?

Nothing he says to the public will suffice. The poor bloke is on a hiding to nothing. The players have let him dons badly. The captain, as much as I love hm, sadly is one of the main offenders, as he was with Teague and Bolton before that. I think we need to let him. Best for him and best for the club. The rest of them, as pitiful as the likes of Weitering, Curnow, Walsh and McKay have been for weeks, are younger and still have very good years of football ahead of them.
Cripps 30 only 2 years on
Weitering, Curnow, Mckary

Only Walsh is significantly younger.

This is the misnomer. The core 18 10 over 29.
We are not young
 
We have had some piss weak performances in the last 12 months or so but last night just about takes the cake - what a pack of inept scared and gutless players (with about 4 exceptions) we put out on the ground .
McGovern blazing away when he had options just about somes up where this basket case of a club is at.
No more woke mid management bull shit speak - start the purge now !!!
 
By all means go scorched earth on Lloyd, Austin and Agresta and the players but I genuinely feel for Voss. Everyone wants him out yet he is probably hurting more than most of the player are right now. His legacy is enshrined as a player. He risked part of it to a degree to try to become a successful coach as well. IMO he has way more on the line than a lot of these overpaid so called professional footballers we have parading at Carlton.
Voss has had 4 years to set standards
Set a plan and gain the respect of the playing group.

He wanted to be defined by consistency. Since r1 2022 we havent. Go back, and have look at both ingame and seasonal schizophrenic performances.

The players, the "highly touted" million dollar leaders absoutely have a soft underbelly and are coach killers. Its undeniable, they must go.

however club needs a clean out of Voss and the others.
Why because in 4 years, we havent seen the dropping of any of these "leaders" or highly paid guys have we.

Ross Lyon happily dropped Milne and Dal Santo, to swt his standards way back. When has that ever happened for us?

Lets add to this. Have a look at the 2025 official leadership group. Cripps, Weitering, Walsh and Curnow

Only 4. No hard workers, no spread of talent or pay packet. Says it all really. Wheres the blue collar leader, the hard workers? Reap. SOW.
 
To quote Terry from blueabroad “financially thriving, spiritually bankrupt”.

From WAY outside, I’d say the club’s immediate priorities should be:

1. Football
2. Football
3. Football

ALL facets of the football department need significant improvement and/or change. Have accepted mediocrity for way too long.

Fix football and the onfield and see just how big a juggernaut we can be.

Don’t treat us for fools and take us for granted. Modern Carlton really has delivered us little.

If I’m GW there’d be a New Footy Director. New Footy Mgr. New Head Coach and Assistant Coaches. Bolstered LM Team. Bolstered VFL and Development program.

Eyeball ALL players especially our high paid stars and call out their BS. Implement high performance standards and hold them to account. No more tail wagging the dog. Drop underperforming players especially stars. Make statements, stand for something.

All focus should be on fixing football and the onfield. Do whatever we have to to consistently win football matches and become a perennial contender. All we are really are perennial pretenders.

Where we are now is completely unacceptable and there MUST be immediate material change in key roles.
Id sack all those listed in footy dept.

Then, wait to see which players are the ring leaders to get another coach sacked. Cripps, weitering, curnow...

Then move them on.

Why? Because Voss a poor hire to begin with, has been railroaded now, by a group of "leaders" who clearly dont respect authority and happily rail against a coach when it gets hard

We need to break this culture, to go forward. No matter the next coach and footy dept people
 
Again, pointing out individuals. Cerra is a quality player, but he had a poor game on last night - like about 20 other blokes did. Singling out individuals does nothing when everything is going wrong
rubbish.

He's 26 this year. Should be an onfield leader. Gets paid big bikkies - wasn't injured, wasn't sick.

Should be called out.
