    Plenty of passengers today. We are hanging in by the skins of our teeth. Watching Cripps play emphasizes how much JPK has declined unfortunately. Hopefully not permanent because he's been the heart and soul of the team.

      We're better off with Clarke in the team providing a shutdown role than Ronke, who's not playing any role. Not meaning to be mean to the kid, but if he manages to gather the ball clearly and dispose of it to a teammate in the second half, I'll be surprised.

        Heinous game. Bad skills by both sides and just bulk numbers around the ball. We're trying to move fast at all times but our skills are bad and the conditions arent suitable for it.

        Ronke and Hayward surely have to go. Kennedy has been good the last few games, everyone relax on him

          Rowbottom 7 tackles to half time, 3 disposals

            Just doing nothing Ronke. Drop him and tell him that he needs a huge pre season next year to get back to where he was.

                But how many has he fallen off? Could be none but it just seems like Carlton are covered in grease or something else today....

                  Post of the day! We handball relentlessly regardless of how viable it is.

                    This is a terrible game to watch - no wonder the crowd is silent.

                        absolutely "sh" performance. An under age ream would beat them. so bad I went for a walk at half time. Handballing is pathetic, what was henney trying to do with about a minute to go before half time handballing to jones when a kick might hav e given us a chance to score. No one is worth any votes foday, maybe we are tanking for a lower draft pick.

                            Hayward was:
                            The youngest player since Buddy to kick 50 goals
                            The 11th youngest of ALL TIME to kick 50 goals

                            WTF has happened?

                                Not many, James tends to stick them.
