Autopsy 2024 Rd 20 Loss to Port - Top 4 in jeopardy

[Coops93]

As frustrated as I am, I do think we looked cooked from half time on. No McKay or TDK definitely showed.

 

[berisha]

If it's not obvious yet, Voss is not a good coach. Spanked once again.

 

[passmark]

Good news is we can go back to a default settings as supporters. That being this mob is a bog average list sprinkled with stars and hope is a four letter word.
These clowns are nowhere near it .

We buy the same shit every year and by 2025 north and Hawks will go past us.

Yay!

 

[Wickzki]

Love you all

Not certain what's more disappointing.

The umpires gifting them 80% of their score or

The fact that we just rolled over and died. Again.

 

[Sharks On A Plane]

how dumb of i to finally think that for once in my life that this could be the year after that geelong game.

Yep, sucked me in too. The unfortunate reality is that Geelong have since proven themselves to be, like us, shit.

 

[SkyhorseTamer]

Sabotaged by the Coaches.

Starting match ups - wrong
Persisting with them - Stubborn

Kennedy only forward despite being absolutely ****ing crunched in clearance - stupid.

Taking cinc off butters - unexplainable

Playing an extra behind the ball after we lost the lead - cowardly.

Not mixing cerra and Kennedy through the middle not starting young back and kemp or gov forward was an utter brain meltdown by Voss and co.

Bottom of the barrel in terms of midfield tactics, rotations and performance.

 

[Bongo Drum]

Goodbye Top 2.

Pathetic 2nd half!

 

[NewDarkNavyBlues]

Blaming a 5 day turn around for a month of insipid performances is peak Carlton hubris.

Voss and this coaching group will destroy this opportunity. Currently we are a playing like a bottom 4 side… let that sink in.

Season was over weeks ago.

 

[bradfisher14]

Are we seriously running with excuses in thread titles now?

Surely we’re better than that

 

[Ezayyak]

We completely ran out of legs. Playing late Sunday and then playing tonight is disgraceful scheduling. We were running on the spot. The AFL are ametuers.

 

[viking12]

Horrible 2nd Half. 1 goal to 7

Voss too slow in making changes. Removing Cinc off Butters in the 3rd proved costly.

With current form and how tight the top 8 is, our spot is in jeopardy

 

[V_23]

Simply cannot arrest momentum. We’ll make the finals but we aren’t winning the premiership.

 

[PenskeFile]

I don't like seeing an excuse in the thread title, plenty of teams have to deal with a 5 day break.
We are currently a long way off a premiership team.
There's still time to turn it around, but it isn't looking promising.

 

[serenityNow]

Second half was pathetic....Literally pissed a top 2 spot away over the past month....Selections and match day coaching have been a joke in that time. Frustrating.....very frustrating atm.

 

[Red_man2008]

5 players earned a vote tonight. The rest were ****ing terrible. What a poor game after half time. 25 point lead just wasted away in moments.

Collingwood next week and a loss could put us 9th. Wowee.

1 goal in the second half. **** me.

 

[SolGoodman]

Had a lot of passengers tonight, but the Ollie Hollands conversation has to be had eventually.

Walsh too, a shadow of what he was earlier in the season.

 

[branedotorg]

Bye Cunningham thanks for your services but we can't carry players like you anymore.

Can't blame him as a person but for too long a significant part of our list are crocked.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

**** this season and all the injuries. We had nothing left in the whole second half. No burst, no spark, no energy. A 5 day turnaround compared to Port's 7 is ridiculous at this stage of the season.

I was critical of players during the game, but this was a collective flop. The scheduling was unfair.

 

[Wickzki]

Thought after the Geelong game we were set for a massive second half of the season. We ran all over them. I was so ****ing pumped.

We've barely fired a genuine shot since.

Heartbreaking.

Build me up Buttercup.

 

[Accidental genius]

too many non performers...

walsh for highly paid is not a good enough midfielder - no strength no power not quick too easily tackled

cottrell cerra ollie also poor

charlie did ok and got his goals but alliir too often out marked him

 

[mochacinolatte]

Yeah nah, 5 day turn around doesn't make you kick to 2 on 1 everytime. We generally have some low IQ football players out there tonight.

 

[Blue4Life]

Alright Ollie hollands had a good 5 minutes in a final coming on as a sub…but he can’t be a full time part of a team that is contending for a flag…

we have only managed to beat the two worst teams in the afl in the last 5 weeks…playing like a bottom 4 team…coaching is extremely poor

 

[Red_man2008]

Cincotta needs to get out of this team. Absolutely horrible.

 

[Blue_Fusion]

Our last month has been dog shit...

There's no excuse, they are capable of so much more than this...

 

[Zlatan]

Fair result, Port the better team. We split the first quarter, won the second and then got throughly dominated in the second half. Ran out of legs, banged up and it is what it is.

With that said, the IQ of the collective to keep kicking it to the port interceptors in the last quarter was some of the dumbest football I’ve ever seen. Cotters kicking to a marking contest between Fogarty vs both Aliir and Zirk-Thatcher should have him dropped on that alone.

The midfield is cooked at the moment. Cripps needing to be super man, Walsh’s possession as useless as **** on a bull, Cerra can’t even be trusted in the middle. Hewett / Carrol serviceable I guess.
