We lost before the opening bounce

The game plan that Terry Wallace set for the players basically sewed up the loss before the opening bounce.

That defensive midfield game. By the 3rd qtr our midfield was exhausted. The players had no confidence because they weren't trusted to play 1 on 1 and attack. They had to flood back and counter attack constantly.

I would have rather played attacking, balls to the wall, gutsy footy today and lost by 100 points than dish up that garbage and only lose by 30.

Not you necessarily mate but geez this in no way reflects the overwhelming confidence shown by a heap of your mob on our board the past couple of days.

carlton play a man on man quite defensive game, TW always seems to find this style difficult to counter, Refer Syd, adelaide et al. It's a sure way of &&^@# up a run and carry side that like to split with breakneck speed only to look up and there be zip options. It wasnt so much we went defensive, it was the Blues bottleneck we couldnt break

Bullshit. When you get beaten in the midfield (as we did) you have to put players behind the ball and try to attack from half-back as we did.
