We stink like Marial Van Arkle.

1 goal at half time. That simply can't happen yet we seem to do it with regularity.

So according to the lass behind me that was Harmes's fault for not having a shot. Give me a fricken spell mate he's the only one lowering the eyes. We have big problems right now and he is not one of them.

Oh yeah, Viney's playing

Didn't think much of our chances but are we seriously gift wrapping them shots at goal and expecting to stay in it? FFS

Oliver is out of sorts today

Mids need to lift

This sport is slowly going to hell.

I'd kill for that delivery even 1 time out of 3 attempts. Currently it's about 1 in 8

We are way off. Mix of everything but the timing is just wrong right now.

Suicidal

Melbourne, I understand the rationale behind this but we CANNOT play the kick-mark game. Our only hope is to move it quick, if there's turnovers doing that so be it. Rather that than a 10 second mark and long kick to the opposition

Very ominous feeling

Anything less than bang on skill today and we're kaput

Just got here. Come on boys same effort as last week and we won't leave disappointed.

Reasonable coach that got the best out of a list that never bottomed out over 10 seasons and couldn’t get that elusive big fish free agent. Sadly won’t coach again, unless Carlton will go down the ‘experienced’ path.

Petracca is pretty much the epitome of everything wrong with a set shot routine right now. Confidence and mental state is low to begin with and then he comes in with the slow run up action and high ball drop. Recipe for disaster. it would be great if he could start again but when does this ever happen now? Who puts in entire off seasons ala Matthew Lloyd trying to get their routine bulletproof anymore? Just doesn’t happen.

It was a gallant effort. We were always going to be up against umpiring decisions, that's life. We knew what we signed up for. Kick entering 50 is the one that killed us again. And it was pretty woeful at times. Christian Petracca, this has become a serious problem. He doesn't miss, he doesn't even shank, he fogtoggles his shots. If that makes sense. Harmes was excellent, how some media people think he was down this year. Thought T-mac presented well. I love the way Jayden Hunt is going about it right now, a man possessed up forward. That's all I gotta say really. Season in tatters. Bummer.

Well this is more accurate. Easily one of the better kicks. If BD was referring to fumbles and lack of clean first possession then it makes sense

In reply to BrisbaneDemon From gameday thread RE: Fritsch. "I watched him against the hawks and GC live mate, tonight has been the same, if we didn’t have so many injuries he’d be playing are casey we’re he belongs this year" I honestly don't know how you can call Fristch a turnover merchant based on watching 2 games live. The guy has 80% disposal efficiency for the year. If you can find a better user of the ball coming out of our backline other than Salem be my guest.

Not really but in this game yes.

That's cold blooded

We've been up against it but let's not pretend we didn't know it

Inevitable overrun coming
