Getting smashed all over the ground

That was Schache....

Jesus all our senior players are sloppy.. Taj Woewodin the only one who has been clean

Spargo has been rubbish so far.

Good chance for the likes of Schache and McDonald to have a day out.

All eyes will be on Tmac. Let's not forget Schache was named emergency. Just shows he's certainly in some contention if he plays well. Goodwin did not sound all that confident that Grundy will be locked in moving forward. Played a pretty straight bat, but I think we all know Goodwin well enough to think that he knows deep down that Grundy forward experiment didn't work and we'll have to readjust.

Are you sure it was Melksham? Pretty sure it was JVR who was matched up to Weitering majority of the night and actually did a fairly good job.

Ira probably the first time where I genuinely thought the surface looked below standard.

Plus we simply don't adjust to the wet. Looking forward to a sunny spring September..

Right, so we're currently sitting 14-7 and sitting 3rd. The last team to be in this exact position to go on and win a flag was Richmond in 2017. Their form heading into finals is eerily similar to ours right at this point. Richmond won 4 in a row, came up against top 4 team in Geelong in round 21 and lost by 14 points at the MCG. They then won the last two remaining games of the season and went on to have a great finals series which lead to a flag. My point, I don't think this loss against the blues sets us back one bit. I see it as a positive that we can now tinker some changes and it keeps players on edge. Win the remaining two games and then why not us???

Well said mate. Carlton dominated us majority of the night and yet we lost by only 4 points. Maybe I'm the only one who sees a positive in this? Get those selections right and go back to the system that has worked for us in the previous 5 weeks and we can absolutely go deep in September.

I was fully against Tmac inclusion, but after the Grundy forward failed experiment last night then we've literally got no other options. Do we get Schache in who's got forward craft at least until McDonald feels he's got the appropriate match fitness in his legs?

Pretty much sums it up for me.

They let you out for excursion time last night? Love how I'm living rent free in your head [censored] 🤣

Both Sparrow and Pickett had very limited CBA minutes which was disappointing. Sparrow had a poor game and was stuck at half forward majority of the game, but at one stage.it would have been good to rotate him.through there where's he's actually been in good form since Oliver was out.

Wasn't there once upon a time you could actually zoom right in? Does that not exist anymore???

You're actually right. Was watching vision just then. I only saw the initial vision which showed the vision coming behind Marchbank. That's where it looked like his finger deviate. I just saw your screenshot angle in full version and he didn't even tough it and there's clearly a gap. Massive [censored] up there, but again, doesn't change my opinion that it was that one instance why we lost the game. Rightio, I'll put my hand up and own this one. Apologies to everyone else.

Watching Casey tomorrow all of a sudden gets really interesting...

I'm proud of the boys. When they got out to an 18 point lead I thought we were done. But, we fought back well and you can't question their endeavour and effort. Carlton were better on the night, but it doesn't change my opinion that I still think we're genuine contenders still.

Exactly. Plenty of examples why we lost. Demonland will only choose one instance to whinge about and justify why we lost. You can also pick a lot of positives out of this game which would say that we're still on the right track. Some tinkering still. Get the selections right and readjust our forward line again and we'll be fine.

Get some glasses bro

What? People should be more filthy at this non decision then the Petracca incident. He had his legs taken out and could have resulted in serious.

Marchbank claimed immediately he had touched it. Seriously, the footage which was shown had his finger clearly bent as the ball skimmed passed. Some of you seriously need glasses. It's not why we lost t all. We had other opportunities to win the game.

I'm not going to lie... I actually though you were dead..
