The collective stupidity of this group summed up by McKay's moronic decision to kick it short to the corridor when he had Curnow on deep, with scores level. Just so ******* dumb.

Over it.

It shocking how woeful they are at showing some poise and reading the game as it unfolds.

We lost to a club that cannot win unless the umpires carry them.

Cripps held in the ruck contest prior to the last goal. Overlooked.

Ball goes out of bounds 20m away from the nearest Collingwood player. Not paid. They'd paid it multiple times over the course of the game.

McKay, TDK, Curnow held at every forward contest after they established the holding call twice against Williams in the first quarter.

If the umpires don't carry Collingwood's their list would be bottom 4 on merit alone.
Umpires?!? C'mon mate. That was utter piss football. They should've won by 5 goals

Also, Curnow's 'efforts' competing for 50-50 balls are appalling. Costs us time and again with his lack of interest in halving a contest.

Zero interest in getting his hands dirty and for such a fit player he never provides any defensive pressure.
 
It’s not a disappointment it’s expectation… normal play has resumed.. 2023 second half was an anomaly. We’ve just hit their season on track and put demons back into ours.

Cerra, Acres, Fantasia, Cunningham, Hewett, Durdin, Williams were all abysmal.

Cripps, Walsh below standard.

Curnow is getting on my goat this year with some of his thought process.

Heat is back on and Melbourne will smell blood.
 
So my question, when Newman had a free or mark at half back in the last quarter, was how does Voss WANT us to move the ball? What does Carlton footy look like if it’s working? Credit Pies for pressure, sure, but I don’t get how we are trying to move it. It really seems that if Charlie or Harry don’t take a contested mark on the wing, we can’t progress the ball.

We were outplayed all night. They deserved to win. Pathetic and Voss was outcoached again.
 
what does Zac Williams offer?

Lewis Young in slow motion the entire game they should have played kemp at least he try’s to take the game on.

Why make Kennedy the sub, instead of Fantasia who shouldn’t be playing as he does as much as a player not playing.

But our biggest issue is a movement out of the backline.
