Game Day North v Carlton

[archereleven]

LDU needs support - where's his team mates helping break the tag?

George only defends, Powell only attacks.

LDU is our clearance player atm, and that's what Carltanks input is being tipped into. Stop LDU, stop NMs clearances

Sad for CCJ, looks like Achillies, which looks like another player out for the season.

Hate seeing players injured.

But let’s be honest having our hand forced to have him not playing is probably good for the forward line.

We're almost unwatchable. Aside from McKercher, Sheez and Wardlaw. Bailey Scott

trying his guts out
Our cocaptains no good

 

[bennymate]

One thing is for sure, my excitement for Clarko is dimming. I can’t see any master coach, he barely does anything

Yeah he ain't it, should be enough to lift the standards around the joint tho, I could see Adcock taking over if he calls it, which is likely.

 

[amaz199]

PC is doing pretty well considering the delivery inside 50.

 

[Devington]

38 points conceded from turnovers...

Pretty sure that stat includes frees fwiw

 

[Sphynx]

George has 11 and 5 clearances.

He’s doing plenty.

 

[flojo]

How do we get some spark ??

 

[Roostorm]

Pink stay off the ground we’ll play one less and do better

I get your frustrated…..but what on earth is this…. this is totally disrespectful to not only the individual but entire team….do better mate…

 

[Makeshift Park]

I don't mean this with any sense of schadenfreude for his injury because he's one of ours, but without those 3 probable goals CCJ ruined, this is less than a 2 goal game.

The game plan is alright.

 

[kangaroo7]

Last week one good half. This week one good quarter.

 

[Ball Dont Lie]

Philips needs to play next week. We have 1.5 players who can win a clearance and the 1 is our ruckman

 

[rickety]

Carlton lost their best defender. I hope that he's no longer in pain, and wish him a successful and full recovery .... and that that is the last we see of him.

 

[krakouers]

Last week one good half. This week one good quarter.

Not even that, one good half quarter

 

[Rod Stroker]

9 shots to 18.

We are barely hanging on.

was similar in the first 2 rounds. we concede too many shots on goal because our defence isn't up to it

 

[Devington]

How do we get some spark ??

If all the lads have a sudden case of hamstring awareness they'll be absolutely pumped to go for the third.

 

[Roosurgence]

As bad as North have looked, this has been a shabby display by the umpires. They have been shockingly inconsistent.

Is it inconsistent when it seems to favour one side more consistently.

I haven’t seen one Carlton player pulled up for dropping the ball.

 

[CBSlogger]

This is the game we were all worried about with Corr, Pink and Dawson our 3 key backs. Couple that with Carlton midfield dominance and here we are.

That said, you could actually look at 29 pts down as a positive. We get on top in the middle, we're a chance. We don't, hello 10+ goal loss.

 

[pitchster]

Stop the garbage about Ldu being “tagged” his opponent has kicked a goal and touched it 13 times while laying 4 tackles. Maybe ldu should do some tagging of his own, or just playing accountable footy would be a start.

God bless the green whistle

Powell is ok in his vicinity but just doesn’t have the legs to chase George is the only mid with some speed. Need Cam in there at the start and I would throw Curtis as well. The obvious answer moving forward is Colby.

Our inability to even split a contest with Mckay or Curnow in it is embarrassing.

Impossible to get close from here if all they need to do is kick it in their direction and they'll retain possession.

This happens alot, usually after our defenders get very soft frees against them in font of goal repeatedly early. It *s with their heads and they don't compete hard.

 

[DrZaius]

This sport is genuinely rigged for the gambling companies, a narrative the AFL wants to spin for 'which team gets to have a fairytale' angle, and against smaller clubs that draw less revenue.

It's not a sport anymore, with the crackdowns on rules included it's a fake sport now that pantomimes competition, it feels like competition but it's not. The same stories are playing out every year, and the sport gets worse and worse in quality to watch and becomes over-adjudicated more and more, meanwhile, advertisers and gambling ads get more and more screentime and presence in the broadcasts as the entire AFL media moves over to new-internet marketing/clickbait strategies that somehow still work on the majority of the AFL viewing audience.

HMMM. I'll put on my tinfoil for this one but it's looking like this isn't a conspiracy more every year, oh and we ******* suck as a team. STILL.

Not sure it can be manufactured to quite that extent, but * the AFL are certainly making the most of the current status quo. All they are missing is a competent Essendon team

Yeah, he hadn't impressed before the injury today, so I was hopeful Clarko would give Sellers a chance next week, now it looks like it may happen.

 

[ansonholt]

S*** for the first quarter and a half, then really good from there to half time.

Can we blend last week with this week and get an 80pt loss and a four goal win?

I'll take that.
