Hysterical or what? Not once have I ever been ashamed to be a Carlton supporter. Not when Essendon smashed us at Windy Hill in 1985, or when North smashed us at Arden St in 1983. I wasn't even ashamed when North smashed the living daylights out of us in Round 22, 2003. That day I was ashamed of many Carlton supporters, but not ashamed to be a Carlton supporter.

Maybe they wouldn't give away so many frees for high contact or in the back if they got first to the ball a bit more, really noticeable that West Coast are getting first to the ball a lot more often.
Really impressed with Grigg's game.

Nothing wrong with the forward setup at all. We have looked dangerous when the ball has moved smoothly. Midfielders and half backs butchering the footy are killing us.

are we going to put any pressure on any opponent ever
I've never been ashamed of Carlton either.... ashamed of the players to pull on a jumper though and play the rubbish they are putting out tonight, yes.
Two different things.
The axe must be swung after this, we are soft as butter and its the blokes on the most money...
Murphy, whats happened to you...put your head over the ball and go hard...should have been dragged after that soft co*k effort on the wing
I thought last week we had hit rock bottom but this takes the cake

Exactly. The concerning thing is effort doesn't seem to be the issue. Confidence is completely and utterly shot and the majority of players look lost out there.I have not seen our confidence level's this low since the dark days of the 2004/5 etc.
Our talent is there we are just playing so poorly it is a joke. I am searching for answers but i am dumbfounded right now.
Our game plan is seems wrong and is not working and we couldnt hit the side of a barn with a kick right now.

Lloyd is spot on. he says in the commentary, West Coast are showing more intensity and spirit as though they want to win the game. For Ch..t's sake, wer'e playing for a position in the top 8. Did you see Murphy pull out of a contest and Lloyd remark, "he was more concerned with getting hurt than contesting the ball". Soft, soft, soft this side.

The worse thing is for us to win this game or the next few so our season is sugar coated again.
This is where we are at.

Sorry mate but if you think the forward set up is ok then we are watching different games.

At least Grigg is showing he can get plenty of the ball.

It wasn't Walker's fault.
You want players to lead at you - Walker is doing this, and twice its gone over his head.
Even if he held his ground, he would have had to stretch both times as they were bad kicks - if the kicks were to his chest, it wouldn't matter that he was leading at them.
Mister Carlton
Better than you.
Thank god, Alpha isn't posting tonight. I hope he has gone base jumping again...
Yeah this warnock bloke is good
Ellard omg his footskills are pathetic
Jr looked beaten before the game even started
Aw is a C grade footballer at best
Eddie betts is our FF yes dont laugh
Would any good teams like collingwood/geelong etc sit down and watch this crap?
Ratten is a joke of a coach and should fk off asap(reminds me of rohde/frawley/watson as a coach)

Really? Me thinks the midfielders are butchering it because they've got no confidence going forward.
Why we go to Betts so often with Waite, Henderson and Hampson rotating through is beyond me.

Very frustrating game to watch, skills are shocking. If we were playing anyone of note we'd be 8-9 goals down. Thank god the eagles kicking at goal is erratic as well..Not gone...., 26 pts is very gettable.......but the second half will need to be something special compared to what we've just seen.

It was a very disappointing effort, hope he'll get a roast for it at half time.

Unfortunately Murph is playing like a millionaire at the moment. He was on the cusp of being A-grade at the end of last season, but he has failed to take the next step this season. I think there is little doubt that his badly interrupted pre-season is hurting him now.
= sack
