******* cheat right to the end how is that not deliberate has been for 5 years.

 

[Munich]

This has been a pathetic game.

Only shining light is Cameron.

 

[Reppie]

Curious what we've done different in this quarter compared to the previous three

Playing with more energy than in any other quarter this year

Hopefully its not arrogance.

 

[catsfootyfan89]

Really poor effort from the captain tonight.

 

[StonedCat]

Smith legged...play on

Honestly this quarter gave me a fair bit of hope despite the loss, looks like we finally shook the cobwebs out of our eyes a bit

 

[Stocks_go_Up]

Actually lost to Carlton at the MCG... Carlton hasn't beaten reigning premier in 13 years - embarrassing stuff.

 

[Klink]

Tinwly reminder that Bruhn and Bowes need time. Some poor errors under pressure but lots to work with. We already knew that

 

[Baggins15]

That backwards kick from Esava was inexcusable, I’m liking him overall but **** me

 

[UnitedWarrior93]

Jezza almost got us there.

Didn’t deserve it

 

[geelong_crazy26]

Carlton sure are not winning any flag after seeing them rely on us missing targets in the last qtr to win the game. Barely hung on

 

[Cataholic]

This has been a pathetic game.

Only shining light is Cameron.

We've been beaten fair and square.

I thought we'd bounce back this week, but we were as disjointed and lacklustre as we were last week.

Yep just no footy brain in his head

offers this team nothing …

The horrendous kicks inside 50, the two soda set shots missed and lack of contesting any of the last 12 marking contests of the game were much bigger issues.

And it was us last time they did it too.

What do you expect - he has low football IQ. Gives away far too many free kicks - got towelled up tonight but because he leaps at the ball every hour he gets praised. Our whole team looks like it belongs in a nursing home. Whatever the * they did over the preseason has made us 10X worse.

Team is woefully underdone, Chris Scott

seems to have got this wrong.

We should still win the next 3, but at this point we actually have to win them.

 

[And_ROOS]

Unfortunately we have to rely on Esava in big games while we are down Henry and Kolo. He is squad depth, nothing more. You don't see other clubs besides the Saints with so many key players missing.
Take 4 equivalent players out of Melbourne's back 6 like we lost and they dont beat the Dogs.

 

[Mr Meow]

Here come the masses for whipping boy Esava, not the guys delivering inside 50 or kicking at goal when we had a sniff.

 

[FredLeDeux]

Kicking it to the runner Smith was exactly the right thing to do.

 

[Reppie]

Yeah thats the real truth...but hey hes an easy scapegoat so what the hell.

 

[catters05]

Injured and a bit hung over. Hope we can kick into gear soon. Need Tom Stewart back.

 

[Mr Meow]

Midfield were beaten badly, until our last surge. That's the main issue. And forward half pressure. But we can't get away with butchering the ball when we get much less of it. It gives our defence no chance.

The whole team was s**t - Cameron nearly got us over the line with half his groin hanging off - shows how s**t we are.. Absolutely embarrassing stuff from the whole group. It looks like the boys have had a 10 week hard training flog and we are in the preseason games.. Whoever is in charge of getting the boys fit and firing for the start of the season should be out the door.
