[Ald Gardiner]

If an underdone, enigmatic and injury prone Martin is the answer we have massive issues

News flash!

We’ve won 8 of our last 23, lost 7 of last 8, struggle to score more than 60 pts, we have massive issues!

 

[The Fantom]

Imo the three players dropped this week won't be at the club next year.

Aren’t two of them, LOB and Fish contracted?

 

[Aphrodite]

Motlop currently appears in both Interchange and Emergency... the Emergency one should be Silvagni, I think.

Should be JSOS Emergency not Motlop.

Stupid Club.

Fixed.

Thanks Blues

 

[Gw2_James]

Far out poor dow, thought he was decent last week...

 

[Aphrodite]

Aren’t two of them, LOB and Fish contracted?

LOB - 2024
Fisher - 2025

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Aren’t two of them, LOB and Fish contracted?

Yes, but I think the club will probably trade them anyway (even if forced to pay some of their salary at their new club)

Only my opinion though and based on no actual evidence or rumours i have heard. Just a gut feeling.

 

[Criptonite]

This club is a joke, what did Dow do wrong in his limited time on the ground to get dropped, if you're going to give him a go, put him in for 3-4 weeks and give him a chance. WTF is the point of playing Ed, we are not making finals this year, time to move on. Really have to think about the intelligence of this selection committee, they are obviously in survival mode. Not good enough.

 

[SkyhorseTamer]

Dow listed on the bench concerns me.
Would be peak Voss to drop him and bring Ed and Martin in.

I blame you.

Reminder Ed had a sub performance of 2 disposals with a turnover in what was it, over a quarter? Was selected the next week.

Dow just went too well. Can't upset the status quo. Needed to run less and kick worse.

 

[Blue1980]

Here for the Dow rage.

I’d like to see him get a full game, but that isn’t going to be the difference between winning and losing.

& this is why u sack Voss mid season. We learn nothing with him grimly hanging on.
His sole focus is not losing by to much, it’s not about learning & improving the side.

 

[AndyLucimitis]

Again it tells me Dow has already told the club he is off next year.

 

[marcmurphy3]

Again it tells me Dow has already told the club he is off next year.

I highly doubt that. Would be no advantage to him doing so.

 

[Kernafides]

Dow hasn't necessarily been dropped...he was sub last week may be sub again...not sure why people don't get this lol

 

[Criptonite]

Yes, but I think the club will probably trade them anyway (even if forced to pay some of their salary at their new club)

Only my opinion though and based on no actual evidence or rumours i have heard. Just a gut feeling.

In what dimension would any club entertain a trade for either of these two?? How either of them got extended contracts is amazing.

 

[HarryFlashman]

Again it tells me Dow has already told the club he is off next year.

Yeah- Nah, let’s pot the bloke that has continually busted his ass every game & shown more effort & resilience than most at the club.
What it tells u is this is about Voss & him trying to save his ass, not putting the club & the team first.

 

[Criptonite]

Dow hasn't necessarily been dropped...he was sub last week may be sub again...not sure why people don't get this lol

Lol... is that you Vossy?

 

[RedFury]

We're so bad that even our opposition are dropping (ex) Carlton players!

 

[Kruezing]

Have we gone in too tall for this one ?

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

7 losses in 8 games, score 6.8.44 and announce we are going to take the shackles off and tell them to take more risks and we get:

Pittonet in for Silvagni
Martin in for Fisher
Ed Curnow in for O'Brien

Wow, massive testicular fortitude there Vossy.

Look, it's clear Voss has a solid 20 or so he wants to play as much as possible. I've always says that a coach should be able to live or die based on his selections. So, rather than question this anymore, I'm going to allow Voss to live or die by it.

You can't have it both ways though. You can't keep selecting YOUR side, see it fail and rinse and repeat, AND call for patience and back the coach in. Selection absolutely has to be part of this. These are the players who keep letting you down, keep playing ugly football, keep losing and apparently keep ignoring what you are telling them to do.

We have 4 key defenders in the side, 2 key forwards and two ruckman. Essendon have 2 key defenders, two key forwards and 1 ruckman.

Is Young in the side to play on Wright when he's forward and what ... go to the bench the rest of the time? Feels like a waste of interchanges. They're going to smash us at ground level one feels.

I know everyone will say Voss is head coach ect.

But apparently it's more Tim Clarke

that doesn't want dow in the midfield.

So my question is how much would the midfield coach get a major say in selection?

 

[dumb]

I know many of you are not happy with Ed Curnow's selection, but he always brings his A Game against *, from that perspective I am happy with his inclusion.

Happy Pitto is back.

Imo the three players dropped this week won't be at the club next year.

Ed running around next year is he?

I'm disappointed but I'll spare any criticism until after the game, he could play well.

 

[RedFury]

Have we gone in too tall for this one ?

We'll find out, but it certainly looks that way.

On the other hand, we're bringing back plenty of pace and run with a 45 y/o Ed Curnow and a one legged Jack Martin.

Sorry selection integrity at Carlton is a complete joke, form counts for nothing Voss has his favourites one of which is Ed, Dow has been treated so bad by him.

This is a poor reflection on the people part of the MC & Voss
Binns & Dow have been our best performers and both deserve a decent crack, reward performance not favourites such as Martin/Motlop and Curnow.
