Review Round 11 - Carlton @ Docklands - 25th May 2024 - 1:45pm AEST

A message from Dimma to our fans:
Look it was disappointing, of course it was disappointing, we were in the contest for the first three quarters in a bit of an arm wrestle and then they opened up the game at the start of the last quarter and we just couldn’t get it back on our terms. We want to win every game absolutely but we’re on a journey where we will lose and the priority for us is learning from those losses.
The reality is when you get beaten in contested ball and the clearances numbers are out of control we were certainly up against it and simply put; their midfield beat ours. That’s what it came down to, we knew their strength was in their midfield and our midfield had their colours lowered yesterday. We expect better but our mids are a proud group and I have the upmost confidence they will bounce back.
It’s important to remember that we are only 11 games in to our journey; I told the players the art of coaching is knowing why you lose and we’ve got a really good understanding of why we lost against Carlton. We’ll review the game early this coming week, then turn our full attention to being back at home against the Bombers.

Bit of a let-down that one. We had one of our customary slow starts in important games and never looked like truly being in with a shout to win the game. If Carlton had kicked straighter we would have been walloped. 27 scoring scores to 18 is not a recipe for a win on our end......

Was thinking this myself. Moyle looked “ready” last week.

Then again everyone did last week.

Is it possible Moyle works with our mids better than Wittsy, the cohesion with Moyle looked intuitive and Moyles second efforts once the ball hit the ground looked more fluid than Witts, just a thought. Moyle looked super good to me and dynamic as part of the group

No-one loves Witter more Ethan me but if we lose Moyle that's a disaster that could upend us for years to come
Witter's time could come very suddenly I fear
