Autopsy North lose to Carlton.

There was a normal ass Carlton supporter in his late 50’s sitting in front of me that I wanted to smack in the head and tell to stfu because he was applauding his team and being slightly obnoxious. This is not healthy.
When you consider how much a game like this means to us compared to a team that has been pushing finals… You start to question where your passions are. Seriously where is the joy in this sport?
And thanks to the club reselling reserved seats to Carlton supporters.

Smack bang amongst North families in North Reserved area - several amped up Carlton w***ers mouthing off and looking for fights.

**** you North Melbourne and your member experience.

On this why was it so hard to find where to collect the member hat? And why was i told 3 different places, only to find out it was outside the venue and I'd have to scan out and line back up to get back in

(Probably) the last thing I’ll say…

David King was completely correct with what he said today with regards to George Wardlaw’s inclusion:

Some people think they’re giving full effort, then you see a guy like George come in and it makes everyone else’s efforts look very lacklustre.
Problem is, none of those others follow George’s example.
I guess when a club recruits the likes of Darling, Daniel, Stephen’s etc … senior players who won’t defend…. then no wonder the club accepts similar efforts from draftees.
No accountability, no care,
 
Our zone defence or whatever you call it is appalling, our oppo goes coast to coast so easily, and it’s not speed of ball movement, it’s kick kick kick to free players, cutting through our zone like a knife through butter.

Our way forward is break neck speed handballing which inevitably breaks down as it’s done under pressure and requires a level of skill we just dont have across the board.

It’s horrible changing game plans in season but we desperately need some defensive ability or we’re gonna keep leaking goals. Geeeezus this sounds eerily like the Noble days.

I think it's fair to say, that if we are 1-10 going into the bye, Clarko should repay the faith of all them years ago by falling in his sword and not holding the club to ransom.

We haven't improved at all and he can't motivate the players to play to a certain standard of endeavor. He isn't the man.
 
3-5 was the bare minimum.

It’s going to be worse than that.

Bye bye Alastair.

It's galling and appalling - but we aren't sacking any coach less than halfway through a 5-year multi-million dollar contract. It just isn't happening. You can want him gone all you like, but anyone posting that a change should happen now is wasting their time.

And it’s why we’ll remain totrally uncompetitive.

Spineless at all levels.

It's more likely he walks at some point. He expressed doubts last year.

You're right. It would be a very brave call to blow $2.5m of soft-cap money to pay a bloke not to coach, and replace him with someone happy to work for peanuts.
Two years pain, when it’s going to be shit anyway with who we’ve got.

Who knows, we may hire someone with an idea of modern footy…
 
All I can think about is how players rocked up yesterday and basically said ‘yeah, I’ll give it a half arsed effort today’.
They spent all week paying tribute to the kids then served that up to show how passionately they really felt.

Meanwhile Carlton fought it out like an underdog trying to show their stuff on centre stage.

But the Board should be calling a meeting for Monday / Tuesday for Clarkson / Viney to explain what happened and what they are doing to fix it.

If you could sit down with the club management and coaching staff what would you ask them?

Id ask how long the club has left and whether this downfall and treacherous run of luck, recruiting, lack of development and inevitable destruction is engineered.

Hopefully they all name names and point fingers.
 
The most alarming thing and reason for the uncompetitive footy this year….. one player on the list has improved from 2024 and that is Paul Curtis.

Sheezel- backwards
Ldu- backwards
Larkey- backwards
Xerri- sore but flatlined
Powell- no improvement
Comben- backwards
Mckercher- backwards
Zurhaar- backwards
Logue- disaster
Corr- on par
Scott- VFL

What a mess.
Larkey is on track to kick 15-20 more goals than he did last season.

How is that going backwards?
 
But ffs just get the team to play like losing means something to them, like it actually hurts, get them to harness that anger so at least the misery becomes cathartic and we can say that stood for something.

And yet there was nothing. He just gave up.
100%
 
Wouldn't take a genius to read our gameplan

Are you trying to say, um, we're out of ideas. :winkv1:
