Autopsy Suns loss & Vent Thread

[T2B_]

Dam I remember that game, I was probably 15 and that game cost Robert Walls his job as Carlton coach.

Yeah exactly

I'm not sure why people are blaming this game on Ratts??? He made the move to put walker in the back and it worked, move yarran forward, it worked. If anything it's the players fault, a coach can't teach agression, can't kick the all for them, can't tweak their skills. It's the mental state of the players, these are the same players last week who were nailing their disposals, Levi kicked pretty well last week and gets 0.5 this week. Give it a rest on Ratten for once there were players out there tonight who didn't turn up to play

Ratten is to blame for not correcting the players attitude towards these games, a Malthouse or Roos wouldn't stand for a performance like that.

It happened against Port we forgave, now its happened against the GC its goodbye to not just ratten but some of the other coaches as well.

Harden up a dozen Carlton blokes did it last week people in glass houses!

Ummm we did it in our opponents board... we didnt go to the Collingwood board and troll them by liking all the posts in their autopsy thread.

Ratten cost us the season by continually playing these muppets

Armfield
White
Joseph
Ellard
Curnow
Tuohy

Ratten cost us by being ambitious enough to think he could be a head coach, at the time he was hired. He would never have got a heach coaching role at another club, at the time, he wasn't ready.

Worst of all, you let that prick Ross Lyon into the finals.

Not quite worst of all but close.

 

[Azul]

Dunno why a Melbourne supporter is liking my post. Maybe that's an omen that the Demons will finish off Freo for us next week!

 

[Wickzki]

Dad reckons this reminds him of a certain loss to the Bears back in the day.

There's that loss and then there is the loss to Geelong in the 1994 Semi Final that this match reminds me of. Yes, I know that that was a final but the closest feeling I had to that game is this one.

 

[The Coach]

Not here to troll. I feel genuinely sorry for you blokes. The feeling when the Tigs lost to GC after the siren was unbelievably gutting, and one of the worst feelings I've had in my lifetime. Most of you will struggle to sleep tonight and wake up angry tomorrow morning. My entire week was awful and I did a media blackout. You will find yourself not being able to take your mind away from football.


I dont wish this on anyone. It absolutely sucks. I hope to see you blokes rebound next week V the saints.

??? I am The Coach but I'm not really Brett Ratten - I will sleep like a baby tonight (drug and alcohol free)
We only barrack for the club - this is not our LIFE

Unfortunately yes Essendon Mods were not happy.

Only some ! However i think Ratten owes us one final game so he can do a lap of honour

 

[gardiner stand]

what a costly error it has been to keep zach in the side for so long,What was the point of giving okeefe one qtr then dropping him?At least he learnt that joseph isn't a footballers shoe lace

 

[LemmingMaster]

Just lost for words, players, coaches and management need to hang their head in shame!

 

[steveo898]

We are a joke, I honestly have lost all respect for this team.

I hate the players more then Collingwood right now, I respect the symbol & our history. But they obviously don't give a F#@!

 

[Giblet]

Ferk that was shit. Soft team. Clean it out and trade some boys. Curnow can go back to Box Hill with his pathetic decision making. Brock a shining light.

Pathetic soft team. And yes, trade Gibbs, unless the NEW coach transforms him into a hard nut.

 

[16bit]

Something is seriously wrong with MCLEAN is our best player for the match. As someone once said, "Don't let his speed deceive you...he's slower than he looks"

Thank christ Premier League is starting.......oh sh%t that's right, I follow Arsenal and we lose all our frickin players each year. FML.

 

[Dramoth]

We need to trade in a player at half back flank and centreback.

Team for next season:

B: Thornton-----------Jamison----------Duigan

H: *Halfback-------*Centreback---------Laidler

C: Scotland-----------Gibbs-----------Robinson

H: Walker------------Waite-----------Simpson

F: Yarran-----------Henderson----------Betts

RR: Krezuer, Judd, Murphy

Bench: Warnock, Carrazzo, McLean, Garlett

Delist:
Russell, Bower, Armfield, White, Joseph, Ellard, Curnow, Tuohy

Thank god you havent got anything to do with our club and the list management.

Armfield and Tuohy both have places on our list as does Curnow.

Ellard is depth only and might get traded along with Bower to GWS. Russell is probably going to get picked up as a free agent.

White might be retained as depth...

Also... how come you didnt bother saying that we should delist Davies, Casboult, Bell, Dale and O'Keeffe?

Memo to those doing the subtle trolling: me not like, you no longer like.

Essendon fans cant be too cocky, they were belted by two clubs who lost to Gold Coast lol

Please note my use of the word "most" of you, and not "all" of you.

Anyone pushing for Malthouse is dumber than the board members who would have to back flip on re-signing Ratten to sack him. Eddie sacked Malthouse after a GF like we sacked Fevola after an AA season. That sets off a warning light with me. Do not want Malthouse.

TG I have been a fence sitter on the sack Ratten question & maybe I am just looking for a scapegoat as we cant sack the whole team (or can we ?????), but I struggle to see how the players can serve up that sort of performance when it was all on the line tonight, if they respect the coach & jumper.

Same here. Flag the next year healed all hurt. Nothing less than success in 2013 can fix it this time.

Ws that the one were Bairstow, Couch & Hocking were all out injured ?

 

[Dramoth]

The standard of his kicking has been on show for six weeks. This was not an off night for him, it was routine. He can mark but he can't kick goals and in the end that will cost you.

Too many c graders full stop.

He has actually worked on correcting his kicking... and it showed tonight... usually he slices everything to the left... but tonight, he was starting right and they kept straight...
