Well done crows great win. That midfield is a strong midfield hopefully B crouch stays would fast track the development of the young players

So, who's going to win the wooden spoon? North have West Coast next week and Adelaide have Richmond. Adelaide are playing better footy at the moment, and Richmond haven't really blown away anybody this year. Biggest winning margin was 54 against North.

Crows just have to win which in their current form is not off the table. Could knock the tigers out of the top four as well.

Another year, another relatively high draft pick in seven and another fail no doubt. Amazing how a side with so many top 10 picks can fail time and time again. Love what Freo are doing by the way :)
Not going to argue with that except for walsh weitering and harry mckay

Adelaide too good. Score flattered us. It was embarrassing and shouldn't be tolerated

Carlton have some big decisions to make now. We are at a critical point of our rebuild.

We have great young talent but it needs to be able to step up. TDK is a great example of what happens when you give them an opportunity. The older players like Simpson, Murphy, Betts need to move on. They won't make us any better in 2021 and we should be playing finals. When you give young players a chance they will not let you down. It's time for Docherty & Cripps to lead this side and the younger players to take responsibility. It's time

There also need to be changes to the coaching structure. We lack emotion and flexibility. We need a cultural shift.

SPS & Gibbons are midfielders. McGovern as a defender are classic examples.

We are still on the right path but this pre season in regards to changes in coaching, attitude, recruitment, development will determine if we become a genuine finals side in 2021.

Bomber supporters are just great value as they ignore their own backyard while shitting on others and remind me what happened when we played you guys and also the last time you blokes won a finals game?

I'm sure if you take a few minutes to peruse the last couple of Gameday threads on our site you'd find we are more than capable of identifying the many flaws in our 'own backyard', none more so than Schnitzengruben. As with all clubs, our BF posters come in all flavours.

Bit of a slap to the Crows walking off with the Blues jumper haha, did he not make any friends after asking to go back home :p
Nah... i thought that was great.. his good mates from carlton got to chair him off and his good mates at the crows got to sing the song and gatorade him..

Perfect send off IMO.. not many players get that. Some dont even get a send off.

Gibbs was part of the “chosen ones” crop who were meant to lead Carlton to a new era.. unfortunately After a long career later they are still the same old under performing Carlton
Having the other “chosen one” murphy as captain held them back for years.Took them awhile to wake up and finally put a proper leader as captain.
