Autopsy 2023 Rd 12 No end to misery in sight

[Accidental genius]

Thought Cincotta was fantastic. Kemp erratic. Yes great marks but he’s all or nothing and gets caught under the ball too often. Loses his man.

Kemp plays like he has anxiety...just needs to settle...more game time will fix that. lots of positives with kemp.

agree on Cinc.

Leaving out the WAFL team we played, we've lost seven straight with scores of 62, 60, 74, 59, 57, 51 and then - as if to scream 'broken gameplan' - 44 points. It's June 2, and we're already into 'play the kids' mode. Voss will be sacked - not that it'll make any difference, but that's what we do. I think for anyone over the age of 40, you've already seen your last Carlton premiership.

I’ve asked this question a lot but no one’s been able to answer it.

I went to the dogs game last year and at half time I’ve never been so pumped.Scoring was high our forwards were on fire game plan was awesome.

Personal is relatively the same.Injuries up to know have been ok.
So please answer this question for me.

WTF has happened with us this year?????????

 

[Graffy4242]

I was at the game damn that was a shite game…

My condolences.

"Dubious defensive positioning" he took 10 marks, 7 intercepts and 3 contested.

Doesn't happen without good positioning. Kid will be a star, needs a good run of games at AFL level.

Didn’t say he wouldn’t be a star. Just he’s such a nice mark and should play forward. He could be a real weapon up there.

He gets lost in defence. If you watch the replays and slow the game down and watch individual contests.. he loses his man far too often. He’s not a natural defender. When he’s in a contest he can take a good clunk hence why I think he should play forward.

Agree he needs to play out the rest of the season. He’s a huge talent.

 

[BlueBayou]

Dunstall and Lockett

Are they available?

Can't be any worse at 60ish than what we have

 

[V_23]

Sadly bottom 4 just as likely

If we finish bottom four, Voss’ position would be untenable

 

[Blue Reaper]

40 forward half intercepts by Melbourne. Wow.

 

[Beyond Blue]

For all those potting LOB- Owies & Fish say hello, throw in Cotts & combined they did sweet * all

I could add a few more to that list too! We’ve just got too many ball butchers. The worst thing is we have nobody coming up to replace these guys so it’s hard to see where the improvement comes from.

 

[Blue1980]

I think Voss might be done at years end.

Give it another 2 weeks

 

[Ahuitzotl]

Some small goal kicking forwards would perhaps be a good addition to the team. You know - ones who actually are at the fall of the ball.

 

[Gez1969]

This is the song that doesn’t end, it just goes on snd on my friends, Vossy started singing it not what it was, now he’ll keep on singing it forever just because…

 

[passmark]

Is Voss turning out to be any better than Teague? He started with a bang and was great for half a season then petered out.

Voss has an infinitely better team at his disposal.

8 years we've been carefully building this list.

For what?

“Infinitely better “

 

[ctwenty1]

We aren’t going to be doing a full on rebuild

Yep, because we don’t need to.

We’ve stuck with some players who aren’t up to it. Reckon they will be getting moved on.

 

[Accidental genius]

these running ballistically at the ball carrier and sticking an arm out to tackle just has to stop.

run at the body ffs. dont fall to the ground unless you bring the oppo to ground also.

seriously we should get a rugby coach in to teach tackling

 

[Graffy4242]

For all those potting LOB- Owies & Fish say hello, throw in Cotts & combined they did sweet * all

They were all pathetic.

 

[The Dochs in]

Kemp did some good things but from what I could tell he spent a lot of time on Fritsch who would have had a night out if he kicked like he normally does.

 

[teddy-hopkins]

Kemp plays like he has anxiety...just needs to settle...more game time will fix that. lots of positives with kemp.

agree on Cinc.

I wonder why when we can't hold the ball for more than 30 seconds before the ball comes flying back into the back line.

The mids put soooo much pressure on our defence. Too many passengers.

Yep. A thesis could be written on this no doubt but I think in summary our midfield (which was dominating early last year) got found out and over pre season we’ve changed to a more defensive game plan which doesn’t work. Confidence levels of our players are at an all time low. The downward spiral has been steep and look never ending.

 

[mrchris]

Barring an injury emergency, these players should have a black line ruled through their name: Boyd, Cottrell, Dow, Motlop, O'Brien, Owies, Silvagni. Aside from West Coast (and then only maybe) they would not get a game at any other club.

 

[CaptainCharisma]

**** we are so boring to watch as a football side. How has it changed so much in 12 months?
The first half of last season we were entertaining even for neutrals to watch.

What have we done to Doc and Saad? Were probably the best two half backs in the comp now have been neutered.
I really hope O'Brien isn't sighted in the senior team again.
We desperately need to find an effective small forward with some speed.

I haven't been on the "sakc" train yet, but he is in trouble if the Dons get us next week and they probably will.

Positives for tonight Kemp, Harry, Cerra and a half from Cripps.

Teague had the game plan without the troops to carry it out. Voss has the troops to carry out his game plan, it just doesn't work against any decent opposition.

 

[Dunna Heartknee]

Yep came on had a few good touches and then was dragged off. Voss has no idea.

That's because he ran the wrong way to get the ball and hand it off to Cripps. He was not suppose to do that it was the incorrect running pattern.
On a side note it was refreshingly different having a player read the ruck contest, from what I have seen this year the only player at the club with the ability to do it regardless of who wins the tap.

 

[TeeJay Blue]

He didn't play

 

[AB_Blue]

Owies, Fisher, Motts, Cotts absolute tripe

Gov….WTF mark it
Charlie owned

Kemp, H, Cinc, TKD, Cerra, Kennedy, Wieters good

Boyd ok

Leadership zero….,,,,
