Autopsy Carlton defeats Geelong by 19 points.

[dazbroncos]

Horrendous effort again this week. Kicking for goal a mess.

Talk about it here and be mad and pissy - but respectful.

Go Catters

 

[Spyder]

I ****ing hate the Indigenous round theme.

For a team that boasts the one of the, if not the greatest Indigenous player of all time in Polly Farmer, we sure do show that we don't give a **** about the culture.

Round 11, 2014 we lost to Sydney by 110 at the SCG
Round 9, 2015, we lost to West Coast by 56 at Domain
Round 10, 2016, we lost to Carlton, a team who were hyped as bottom four at the beginning of the year, by 19 points at Ethiad

What an insipid performance if you can even call it a 'performance' at all.

Credit to Carlton who were down 2 men most of the game.

 

[supahoops]

Bit stiff I thought..

 

[Liger]

Going to microwave my handbag after that effort!

 

[STP18]

Smart move by Scott to move Guthrie onto Gibbs. Shame it took him the first 3 quarters to work it out. Didn't he rack up 6 Brownlow votes against us not long ago in a year? Banked another 3 today.

 

[Gogeelong]

time to have a reality check, we deserve to be a bottom side
time to TELL THE PLAYERS THEY ARE NOT THAT GOOD, as a matter of a fact they are crap.
time to teach them to play with pride
time to pull Hawkins aside and tell him his role it to kick goals when we need them and not be a show pony.
time to turn over our second tier midfielders
time to give Kolo as many games as we can as we have to build our backline
time to teach Motlop how to handle being manhandles
time to get a forward coach who can teach them to kick
time to forget about premierships and rebuild NOW.
time to realize Selwood is worn out
time to look at our coach, he has been there too long time
time to look at why we are behind on free kicks every week
time to get a true centre half forward
time to draft players with a little agro
time to realise even if our opposition have no bench we loose
time to realise we are not assured of beating any team in the league
time to support a second side

 

[Inferno]

Sounds cliche but they just wanted it more. We turned up trying to play like millionaires for the second week in a row and yet again got out worked by a team that was willing to put their bodies on the line.

Really soft effort..

 

[Frappe]

Absolute disgrace. We didn't even make them look good. Selwood must be injured.

Can we meet with umpires and agree on how we can win a few more.

 

[Leeds17]

Out coached again, it's like we put no time in to oppositions all Carlton's best players played well and we did nothing to stop it.

Talk about the effort, shots on goal, umpiring ect but when it comes down to it Carlton were just better prepared.

 

[vinum coupe]

The melts should be good.



Looking forward to hearing from those who think north are pretenders after losing to Sydney.


And I didn't see the game, but did Duncan shank just about every kick? It sure sounded like it.

 

[Cataholic]

Reckon there'll be a lot of emotional, knee jerk posting here shortly.

Once that settles down, we might get some good dissection and analysis of what is wrong with us.

 

[Whit3y]

before the pies game, we will win easy
after the pies game
"they are underrated"

before todays game, we will win easy
after todays game
"they are underrated"

credit to the blues, they have guys like murphy that are guns

pitiful pittman

 

[Benny78]

I gather we're pretty shit and have no heart anymore as a club.

 

[hbk_aus]

Horrible. No redeeming features from that game whatsoever. I could name the passengers but it might be better to name those who can look themselves in the mirror. Guthrie. Henderson was decent and clearly cared. Gregson was ok.

That's about it. Other teams know if they get in our faces we will shit ourselves and fumble, or handball the ball hot potato style to a guy who is already under pressure. Scott needs to prove his coaching skills and turn this around quickly.

Disagree, we put in, our structures are just terrible.

30 effective disposals out of 33.

 

[Baby Duck]

Seasons looking grim. Can't see us beating north or the dogs after that pea-hearted performance. I'll try to be positive but that was just awful.

 

[Seeds]

Blicavs 9 touches.

Let's complain about Duncan and caddys midfield output.

 

[catempire]

If we continue to let mediocre but eagre sides get a sniff by missing easy shots early in the game we will continue to have results like this.

Once that happened we are just not that good that we can expect to turn it around and run over the top. We have issues. We need a lot to go right and it hasn't in the past couple of weeks. Several players out of form and the team as a unit is not playing cohesive, dangerous footy. We are easy to play against right now - put pressure on Geelong and you will have a great chance of worrying them out of it.

North are pretenders

But we are as well

 

[ryzza11]

At the game. Pathetic effort and pathetic umpiring.
Guthrie and Henderson can hold their heads high.
Murdoch terrible.
Geez Billy, we want you to succeed but you make yourself look slow when you are supposed to have elite speed. He did some good things but lots of bad stuff.

He had 33 disposals at 91%, but the few he messed up were absolute shockers.

 

[Cronin]

Carlton were better in every aspect both on the field and in the coaching box

 

[DV2000]

Dont even think about a premiership. At this rate were not going to win a f**ing final. Bloody piss-poor. We're a middle of the road side now. Not even a top four side.
