I think it’s our mentality and bad decisions with the ball we have no ingrained plan that dominates or we go to under pressure. That why we are never a good chance to get a last goal in the minute and a half in the Semi last year. Not either trained to do it or are not good at it. I would have placed Kossie in the centre in that last bounce as he is the one who gains space on his opponents to do a long kick to the danger area. There is so much of previous success patterns still being trotted out it’s so disappointing and frightening. And to be honest what has happened to the Carlton practice round style, disappeared under pressure it looks like. no new Mini discernible patches in style to add a layer to our style either. And Stafford clueless it appears although the track watchers sometimes see some training type of plan that is different but never surfaces in a match. About time we got an outsider to do our forward and ruck game plans.

Agree never been potted and have had no reason to. Also most players should get a second chance because of the humidity and slippery ball. Except that Spargs Chin Bill and Jibba (JBIllings) are all a bit alike and can’t fit too many in the one team. Chin needs a Casey recall and Spargs fitness is under question . Billing’s and Bill for mine and zkosdie and Petty or if not passed fit Fullarton.

I think we are still on target for 65,000 plus. A string of wins and in the Top8 would get numbers going and it’s early in the season.

Thank you for that Smokey. But you don’t know me so just be content saying that you don’t agree with my remarks at all.

Who??

Beautifully summed up Kall. Weak as p..s was Kane. All for show and what a charade. About all it would have done was win a game of Charades. Some people are easily fooled. Watch the interview from OTC and see how she dodged and weaved some questions. Very poor I thought.

Your proving quite like a fickle supporter Gofgy not wanting JUH “ no tight type of player for us” and now saying don’t try and artificially involve Riv in our forward set ups as it upsets a team ? It is understandable if overdone but it’s just good footy to get the ball on some players hands more than others. Who we old you want yo get a pass from JV or Lingers or Riv? No shame on the others but let’s be real.

Whatever you nitpickers about JUH and his marking or kicking he had had only 3 seasons in the AFL. Contrary to opinion he is ahead of Rooi at this stage in development. But is a year ahead in playing AFL. He is a very skilled player and a very strong mark on occasions. For anyone in D/L to say he is not the sort of player Melb needs to have now is completely out of touch with building a premiership list. Who would he replace on our forward line NOW? Only Petty and Fritta and JVR are a like for like but KUH could play any where like Fritta. Be handy on a flank I reckon. Yes his kicking is not as reliable as say JVR or Petts but like all good/ great players ( Trac ) not all are the finished product in all skills. Naughton is very iffy also kicking for goal but again you wouldn’t say no. Go after him Dees and throw the book at him. Far too good to not chase.

Yes and that’s the aim that should be for our players as WCW. Sure we will see a much improved Dees team on Sunday. Selection and performance. We don’t play two baddies in a row usually Go Dees

Didn’t mean he can’t play there in the middle. We are playing a different team and Marty might be assigned to zJUH cos I can’t think who can mind him.

Dont you like the truth Smokey. Start support ING Clarry. I am not autistic and please don't offend others who may have the misfortune to suffer.

No he would have still been playing Dino. You are wrong. it’s the evidence from his neurological team that delivered the differing conclusion of some small signs after his KO in the QF. That is the defining to force his resignation.

Yes indeed it was gutless to overturn The MRO but not go the full way. Notice how she ducked and served with the really hard questions from Garry Lyon on the punch by Hewlett . Also nothing to report on her WWide tour for DRS improvements as none have appeared yet! Honeymoon period over and time for tough answers and actions. Claimed all the ticks about zero round but there were a couple of obvious cons now being offered. Not sure any one can take Chris Scott about fairness in the AFL as his Cats generally get their way in the fixture re home games etc. Salty really as if he was jealous also.

Who then Goffy ? jezza Cameron OK?

I love both Kossie and Jack but in a totally disciplined team they are outside team rules at times. This holds you back as a team if you allow each player to burn team mates or as Kossie does fly stupidly. He has not hit one mark really yet. In 2021 Indont think this was an issue and it should not be now. But it is it’s like Maxy not responding ( and other players) to Brody’s tactics last week. It’s a coaching weakness and why goody is not recognised as a good game day tactician. plan B is not there generally IMO.

Great move Dees. I am bullish that Jed will replace Stephie May in 1/2 years but will be a chance this year to get a good grounding at some stage. I also think Disc and Jed ( despite DLers wanting more defenders recruited ) are a great future for our talls. Marty Hore might also be a chance for the medium role of intercepting at some stage if Jake is injured.

Really you jest Lord T I presume. Was gutless in not taking the case to the Appeals Tribunal if she did not look like making a soft statement just to look good.

That wasn’t necessarily Clarries hammy if you really think about it.

Not on your posts.

Got tackled and caught and didn’t use a Hand pass option and burned a team mate and a goal in the third. Hit to use the first option more IMO.

Stupid unthinking comment. Of course sOne of your list aren’t even in the ones yet Ridiculous suggestion and start supporting Clarry to be the best he can be.

JUH can play tall and is good on the ground. In NO way could you honestly say NO to getting him. He also takes a very high mark as a tall sometimes. It’s like saying no to Jeremy Cameron. If Geelong continues on with its disgraceful watch on Clarry almost stalking in the media then we say we would want Jezza and one of their mids in return. Dee how they like that. Stand up and support Clarry it’s disgraceful action when he is still recovering his form fitness and lifestyle and the Cats are hovering around waiting for him to slip up. Dees make a statement it’s not good enough. Let Clarry get his return as he should respected by the other Clubs as a still medical issue. Not on!!

Salo staying in the mids role is even more a no brainer. Woe or Marty are chances at half back.

Why would you want Petty rucking? JVR is a developing footballer and any task he can learn helps his career. I only want by him in the rock mainly up forward but an occasional stint behind play would also develop him more quickly as well.

No because you are Half empty from head to toe. Not in your nature to compliment.
