Intensity at, over and around the ball missing.  No run.

When they haven't got the pill it's very much the same.  Pressure is way off.

Blues have regressed so far this season

This is why they need to have some small degree of success. Maybe losing an elimination final. Just enough to keep Voss in the job for years on end. Imagine what a good coach could do with that list.

My brother is a big Carlton fan. He went to the match today with his 7 year old son. They had the following exchange:

Son: “I think this is the worst game of football I have ever seen”

Father: “It’s definitely the most frustrating”

Son: “Every game I’ve ever watched is frustrating”

Father “It’s the curse of being a Carlton supporter, mate”

I am so glad kids growing up these days watching the Dees don’t need to go through that anymore.

I feel a bit sorry for the kid. Only to a point. Imagine the gloating and rubbing noses in it if they have some success. It's crucial that they waste their talented list and spend another generation in the wilderness.

Those kids deserve better..better organisations like the MFC.

Kids will jump on board the Kozzy train!

Quote of the night

BT - “Mitch Robinson the only player to play 100 games for both clubs.”

Hodge - “Also the only player to be sacked from both clubs.”

I think Fev did to but seriously he sat in the crowd with both jumpers on with a medal. Honestly. 

Oh andf if I hear anyone complain about there team or any young child, you have nothng to complain about until you have sat at a ground and watched your team get beaten by 186 points.

Fev played 187 games for Carlton, but only 17 for Brisbane.

True dat.

War drums wont be out yet but Voss better get a move on. He wanted the job.

Apparently Carlton supporters did leave  en masse before and at the end of 3rd qtr. Players also copped boo's, Charming!  Real troopers that lot. lol.

Pies fans would never leave  before 3qtr time even if 40 points down.

Theyre just getting warmed up.

To be fair most players get sacked. Very few get to leave on their own terms.

It's a risk, but often a necessary one, to appoint an unproven coach. It's a leap of faith to appoint a coach proven to have no success.

I can understand recycling Ross Lyon. He took two clubs to grand finals, and but for one bounce of a ball .... whereas Voss, who .... erm ... lemme think ... he, um, well, he .... errrrr ... what's for lunch?

Let's not let the schadenfreude tempt us into lionising Collingwood. They're still Collingwood no matter the circumstance.

It was Carlton who got lionised last night, not Collingwood.

I can just imagine behind the scenes now, although the renovations at "Taxpayer Park" are not complete, there will be quite conversations with various government agencies regarding putting a roof over their non-AFL ground. Going by todays weather there will be some very cold farmers down there. Well they can leave early to milk the cows. Would love to see Adelaide win as my hatred of Geebung is only 2nd to the druggies.

These days it’s called delisting. Players only get sacked for committing serious outrages, some of which are publicly known but most are swept under the carpet.

I can't believe BT introduced himself to Josh Dunkleys dad and asked him what his name was.🤦

He didn't remember Andrew's career?

My heart says yes.

Imagine dimma in his after match presser

Cripps was garbage,I still dont acknowledge him as a worthy or Bonafide Brownlow winner

Exactly.  Cripps Cheated the system.  
And I cannot understand why the maggots love him when he argues every decision and more particularly every non decision.

Hardwick might have a real breakdown today if this continues.

Looks like Richmond are playing in an empty MCG.  Last week they had the excuse the game was at Marvel.  This week no excuse at all. 

100,000+ members.

More microwaved membership cards.   Or deleted Richmond FC app!!

They’ll say it’s cold. And it is. It feels like 2 degrees and it’s wet. But if I hear one more media commentator complaining about attendance at a Melbourne game while completely ignoring attendance at games of the big clubs, I’ll spew. 
The reality is that everyone is struggling financially. Going to games isn’t cheap even if you have a membership. When your team is slop and the weather is horrible, you make those choices. Let’s see how many people rock up to watch Tasmania in the dead of winter once the shine has disappeared and they’re on the bottom.

Richmond’s skill out of the back is Melbournesque 08-09, 12-13.

Feel a bit sorry for Andrew Gaff. Could've played in a VFL premiership with us last year if he hadn't belted Andy Brayshaw in the gob.
