Autopsy Blues down by 57 points after woeful first half

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Sadly would be a walk up start in our side today.

Just no.

Not sure Rhys Palmer of all people should be talking about culture...

He must have the shits after given his marching orders from the club.

 

[BlueAbroad]

Another low point for us.
This one was extremely hard to talk about.
Here's my review - bring on next week!

Piss off! He couldn't get a game when he was here.

 

[Mondyboy]

Watch the warm up closely next time. They barely hit each other by hand or foot in the warm up so it's going to be even worse in the game.

I noticed that today at the ground. There’s no excuse.

Love the AFL report list Ed as one of our best. Typical reporter looking at stats.

He had a shocker and mmm were laughing every time he went near it in the last qtr saying how bad he has been. Said he should just drive to Torquay and forget this game ever happened.

Freo had a younger and less experienced side, no excuses for this one

They had better older players mate, and there wont be any excuses.

 

[90N90S]

Am I negative?

 

[The Blue Baggers]

Such as what?

Lack of improvement, going backwards , no run , most short kicks in the league , 3 tall forwards , nick graham getting games , ..........

 

[Navara79]

Am I negative?

Nah. Just full of crap.

 

[The Blue Baggers]

The only question I have is, Are they overloaded with pointless information? They seem confused and scared to make a mistake which makes them make mistake after mistake

Too many short kicks & why apart from Simmo does no one try and run and break the lines !!

Palmer’s a bitter dickhead but nothing I’ve seen the last couple of years makes me think we’ve got a great culture.

Yes we’ve got some young kids who want to go out and make Carlton better, but that ain’t culture.

+ves

• LOB, SPS improving
• SOS becoming more flexible

-ves

• Coaching department needs a 66 game rebuild
• We will get the spoon.

So what do we do to fix this...

• Invest now in increasing costs in drafting the right talent... need to nail 2018 draft and 2019
• Trade as many of Lamb, Casboult, Graham, Wright, Rowe that we can even if we get future 3/4th rounders.
• Enough of worrying about protecting kids.., seniors of Graham, Wright, Rowe, Lamb and Cas really aren’t helping. Play Kids, kids, kids.
• Review of all departments within the club..

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

I'm starting to think the concept of a rebuild is pretty flawed.

We could have still built by retaining our first round draft, invested in every player in the squad each year and nailed some more mid-range draft selections.

I don't doubt our performance will improve eventually - we're literally rock bottom - but I don't think the players we've taken with early selections we've traded for are going to be the difference.

We've overcooked the rebuild just a little bit. We've also chased the wrong type of experienced player IMO. Needed some leadership and aggression. Let's face it, why go for 25 year old fringe players when a 30 year old best 22 player is going to help more immediately. Those fringe players aren't there for the long haul anyway.

 

[Styxx]

See ya.

Where did I say anything about leaving?

 

[Arr0w]

The problem here is that we have no senior talent with speed and class.

How are our kids going to develop with no support or leadership guiding them?

We have made some huge mistakes in this rebuild. Under estimating the importance of development is one. You can't throw kids to the wolves and expect them to thrive. Why have Sydney and Geelong etc always developed their kids? Why can't we? The answers are pretty obvious.

Wondering what the Demons think

 

[Iamcarlton]

I couldn't give a stuff about the media, all that matters is what is going on internally.

We need to put a line through some names and continue to develop the youth

Agree again i too dont give a stuff about the media what im saying is Boltons message not the media itself but the message he sends .
Not tough enough he's too rosey .
Sometimes using the media as a tool to get the message across can be beneficial .
Not seeing the message on field maybe its time to use the media to put this playing group on notice .

 

[PrinceCharles]

Sadly would be a walk up start in our side today.

Gary Ayres to take over from Bolts you reckon?

 

[Weiterbot23]

Wieterings lack of pace is extremely problematic

 

[LanceRomance]

Took the players a half to wake up.

The bye compounded our woes

 

[Mr_Plow]

Wieterings lack of pace is extremely problematic

Hardly in our top 10 issues today?

 

[james Dean]

because not all fans are shortsighted, weak sooks maybe?

I'm all for showing support after a loss if the effort was there, but today it wasn't.

That gives a message that efforts like that are acceptable.

 

[Mondyboy]

I can only imagine what a refreshed Collingwood is going to do to us next week.

This coming from a salty delisted salary dump GWS player that played ONE game for us.

Seriously

Worst pick 135 in AFL/VFL history
