Poor pressure, poor execution. That's all we need to fix.

Carlton aren't playing well, but still smashing us on the scoreboard.

McKay has taken 3 marks. One on Wilkie.

No defender is stopping that kick from Obiren not many defenders allow for Webster to completely screw up.
Waste of time it’s “bash Howard” time cause our midfield can’t be arsed applying pressure

Great. Needs to do more. Isn’t even at contests.
Getting burned off way too easily. Once Walsh gets the running, Seb is falling off the pace too quickly :(

The problem is not an 80 year old ruckman, our one paced mids are the issue. Who's the Carlton ruck legend that's cutting us up? No one. Marshall & Shunter are not doing their jobs at clearances.

Billings blown any chance of a first round compensation pick.
Just a good ordinary footballer.
Probably still worth taking a second round component lock.
Somewhere in mid 20s is probably about right.

Game will open up, I refuse to think Carlton can work that hard all game. If we turn up in the second half we will be fine

Dougs needs midfield pressure, because he’s not within a bulls roar of an opponent

Wouldn’t surprise me if MacKay kicks 8

He’s halfway there

And the sofa he gave to Curnow

Just when I thought we couldn't be as we were in the first quarter we actually were. Going to be a miraculous turn around to even be completive. A very disappointing first half very close to our worst so far & there has been a few .The effort is just not there , out worked out coached & shows where we are really at when we don't come to play.

This is a common theme. Our leaders go missing when we are challenged. Happens time and time and time again.

Hit outs are overrated

Clearances are not
