Carlton plays confident albeit chaotic football. They are playing well above their weight. Evidently, we are playing well below ours. Carlton will get a run on. They look dangerous every time they go forward. Still think we're set for a 8-10 goal loss. Nothing in that quarter convinced me otherwise.

They already have. Bartlett came out shortly before the coaching changes to say he went down to the football department. what do you want them to do?

Anyway, injuries aren't an excuse anymore.

It makes perfect sense. Either you're illiterate or you can't face reality.

Please stop with this. No amount of injuries or surgeries turns a top 4 team into a potentially bottom 2 team.

We have to be the only club in the history of the game to play finals, have players go under the knife in the preseason, and such was the significance and impact to THE ENTIRE TEAM, that in a matter of months we become one of the worst teams in the comp. Misson's report to the board isn't a reason or justification. It acts as an excuse now. And highlights how unprepared the football department was for the consequences of its own actions. That they knew there would be a slow start to the season isn't reason enough as to why we're having a poor season. It's part of the underlying problem, and imo puts significant pressure on Goodwin and co.

Love the fact we've opted for tall and slow on a wet day and dropped one of our fastesr in Oskar Baker who plays with more confidence and provides more drive than most of the team.

We'll be lucky to kick 5 goals. Watch Carlton pummel us by 10 goals.

Yes it does

It's been a fairly stagnant 2 months dating back to our win against Hawthorn. Better than rounds 1-6, but still uninspiring. Overall, we have gotten better at executing a very poor gameplan, with similarly poor skills. Better, but still quite poor. Our bigger test atm is against the likes of Carlton, North and the Bulldogs. As it stands these are three teams play much better football than us, who subjectively have lists with less overall quality, but appear to be finding form as the season progresses. We however appear to be fumbling towards the end of the season. We have the 17th easiest draw to end the season. Anything less than a 8-14 record to end the season would raise even more questions and concerns that what already exist.

It means they played well enough consistently enough over three years to play finals. We did it once and crashed again. Richmond rebuilt their midfield and forward line by bringing in the likes of Prestia and Caddy and co. It was a mini rebuild. They traded out experience to rebuild their core by bringing in strong role players. They completely changed their approach to their list.

He stands to poll 0 this year. Richmond traded Deledio despite consistently polling 10-15 every year from 2012-2016.

Who remembers Daniher absolutely blasting the team in 1998, I think after our loss to Essendon? Came out and said we were shocking, didn't play good footy. I'll never forget it because he said it in the rooms after the game to the media and you could see Steven Febey in the background listening in. We haven't heard a coach criticize performance since Daniher. We are stuck in the Roos days of cuddling players.

You mention Richmond as a counter whilst also mentioning three straight finals appearances. Wins are irrelevant. They played finals. And they also had a fairly major list turnover at season's end. So you agree a rebuild is necessary?
