Say that again!
More in reference to your club overall, 52 years of deplorable football and going strongThat "disgrace" beat you twice this year you twat.
Well played Carlton - we were out-played and out-coached.
Just brings us back to earth a little after the last 3 weeks.
Lots of areas for us to improve in the offseason at all levels.
Free kick count sure was dodgy, but then again not the first time the blues have got the rub of the green...
Blues will be spanked. Melbourne have something to play for. We should rename Mediocrity to Carlton.
Good win for the Blues.
I like this Carlton team. They're an honest team just lacking some talent. They'll add that over the next two preseasons.
If we want to play finals this year we need to be aggressive at the contest from the opening bounce. If we can do that, maintain our structures as a finals side should against a lower ranked opponent then we win by enough to close the 2.8% down.
That said we're not a finals quality side yet (albeit we're in much better form than north) so I fear we'll see the Melbourne of old and we'll loose by 18 points.
The Collingwood, Sydney, Eagles and Tigers games were all winnable.Good win by the boys.
Losing against Brisbane last week was ******ed and could have finished the year with 9 wins.. so I think 12 wins next year is realistic.
MelkshamWhich player you giving us then?
Melksham
Not just the work rate, they're doing the team things well.All Melbournes score pretty much came from turnovers. Its that lack of talent across the board that hurts us. Bolton has the endeavor up though. Cant fault the work rate.

I'd be bullish about this team if I was a Carlton fan despite recent results.
It gets back to talent again though. We've literally blown a decade of drafts. Watson, Lucas, Yarran, Menzel, Bootsma - all 1st rounders that are no longer with us. Second rounders and so forth are worse.
We have a solid bunch of 26+ year olds (Murphy, Gibbs, Simpson) then a huge gulf in talent over the next 5 year gap, then Cripps, Docherty and Weitering at the younger end.
We need to nail the next few drafts (against the trend) just to get that talent deficit in the black.
Believe it or not, I was fairly happy with Cunninghams game. Early draft pick from last year in his second game. Went OK.
Oh no doubt. That's why I said earlier you'll need two preseasons until the team really starts moving up the ladder.It gets back to talent again though. We've literally blown a decade of drafts.

It takes time but I'd be more confident now as a Carlton supporter than any time in the past decade.
