We are in for such a looooooong year. I know we are coming from a long way back but this is worse than even I thought.
What needs to be remembered is that Carlton are pretty ordinary. I can't see them finishing far above 10th-11th.
Oh well, more medicine. I know it needs to be done, it's just so demoralising.

Best: Jackson, Cousins, Connors, Martin, Nason, Riewoldt (stretching it a bit)
Worst: Vickery, Tambling, McGuane, Thomson, Moore, Thursfield, Edwards, Farmer.
Disappointing: Deledio. Tagged to buggery and had no help but c'mon.
Post MUST play next week, probably down back, no matter his form. Polak probably also must play, forward. Vickery would have to go out on form. So Graham is in too.

Hey guys, been awhile .....just found out the boys were back again for another season of Komedy Kapers, good stuff.
I knew we were in trouble early when I seen McMuffin was missing, whats the problem ???.......God, hope he's back shortly to lead the way, we just can't expect Simmo to keep carrying us the way he has been all this time.
Oh well, only early right, we'll make the Finals, its all good.....stay positive guys, back in March of '11 to see how things have progresssed.
Best always to Disco ..... :hihi

Hislop & Edwards papers have been stampted as far as I'm concerned.
Hislop's impersonation of a statue when he was tackled by Kruezer was the final straw - no upside whatsoever. Slow, bad kick, no smarts. Gone.
Edwards has now had 3-4 years in the system - in the last quarter he's dropped a simple uncontested mark - turnover & O'Hackpin takes a contested mark. Goal. Earlier in the game loops a handball in the backline & misses a Richmond player by a metre - turnover. Goal.
No rucks contesting in the forward line in the first half - WTF? If that's an intentional strategy, that's a disgrace.

Agree Hopper, I didnt see any new game plan tonight, just the same old bloody below average skills and players not willing to work hard enough when they didnt have the ball. Yet another very long year indeed. And dont get me started on bloody Simmo.

Agree with all but those 2. Thomson was better than I expected him to be, was one of our better midfielders tonight. Farmer tried all game, is a beauitful kick, makes the right decisions and generally defends pretty well. Considering the amount of the times the ball went down into the forward line he was good. Think he will play most games this year as he has good upside.
For those p!ssed off and angry, dunno how you could not look at the line-ups and not expect this? Sure a few poor performances from senior players (Tambling, Deledio, Newman to name a few) but lots of good signs out there tonight I thought. Was always going to be a long year.
Deledio - Another wasted year waiting for this guy to be the next superstar. Will cruise through games not getting a touch when the heat is on, and once the season is well and trully over(i know, i know it already is) he will start racking up pointless possesions and win another B&F. I'd honestly look at trading him at years end.
Tambling - See Deledio. Woeful. Might have to switch psychiatrists
Edwards - Woeful. Bye bye at end of year
Simmonds - I honestly prefer Graham lumbering around then this useless piece of meat. Cannot remember once seeing this guy use his size even against opponents. Plays like he is wearing high heels.
Newman - Worst captain by a very big margin. Didn't realise he was playing till the last qtr!!!
Knew it was going to be a very long year, but i honestly expected a little more determination.
