Last 10mins has been better. Our skills are horrible though.

Cunners is a smart, quality footballer

Yep. One more round of delistings at the end of the year. Guys like White and Boek getting games.

A bit better towards the end of q.

Best we can say about that is we stemmed their flow then got one ourselves.

we gifted Adelaide that q/t lead

if we can tidy up our play we're competitive

Ok. So it's a bit of a shit show. But at least we had a plan to stem the tide and make sure it wasn't Adelaide show time. We are still a few players short of a top eight team.

Fast becoming one of my favourite players

I'm not sure which one I prefer less, getting beaten by 100 points and playing exciting footy, or this.

Latter part of the qtr was better. Can we stop bombing it when they have several loose defenders?!

White and Kerridge definitely. Graham by a bees dick to stay on for stability in the 2s and stop gap for injuries.

So it's dumb Carlton today...

Just like last week the opposition are just watching us kick the ball around half back until we turn it over

what he did was leadership ie. kicked straight when team confidence was down

the team feeds off those situations

Actually thought our short passes at half forward were what gave control of the game to the Crows

Shocking skills.
Terrible tactics to do the slo mo switch.
Bolts has been saying during the week we need bold footy. Dropped three players from last week who wouldn't do what they were supposed to do.
This week they are doing it again. Not using the corridor. We are 18 in the league for using it even though Bolts says he wants to play more bold footy.
As per past weeks we have shown we have no answer to running attack off the half back line.

Unless we can change the way we are playing and get more daring this will be a sixty point loss.
As it is we have it in front of us to even get close.

Well done Cuningham. Takes some poise and mental strength to get that goal after the start we'd had.

Very poor first 15 minutes. Missed tackles. Shocking turnovers. And tactically allowed Adelaide to play their preferred game of stacking the defence and then surging forward into an open forward line and score out the back. We've got to keep some of our defenders back guarding the 50.

Encouraging start from Sheehan.
Same with Charlie. Although I wish he'd stop playing on into trouble.
Kreuzer's marking has been fantastic recently.
Docherty leading the way as usual.

We are going to lose and I accept that - but Umpire Troy Pannell

What sucks is how hard Graham and Kerrige work to get themselves the ball and then their use is just so pointless!!!

Best season in forever from Kruze but his set shots this season have all be horrible. Loving every other part of his game though.
