We just play dumb footy, we consistently played down the line to the skinny side and the Crows knew this and just put number exactly where we were kicking it, there was one farcical moment where Xerri took a mark across half back/wing and I saw hit opponent ROB waltz forward 55m as a loose and guess where Xerri kicked it? We did not look to spread the ground/switch the ball or change the angles at all, IMO we are just trying to stop the bleeding but Id rather lose by 100 taking the game on than what we are doing currently.
When you lack confidence everything else falls apart pretty quickly and that is what we are facing, its going to be a long road back sadly.

This was us last year. Replace "North names" with ours and this was our plight. Dumb predictable footy with zero run nor spread from a contest. I thought with us it seemed to be that we didn't want to make a mistake in case we got singled out & chopped.
So players like Saad would take the contest on but not have anyone go and provide team defence, then when the ball was turned over, his man would get the ball and Saad would look like he doesn't play on anyone.
Crux is, it can turn around very quickly.

Big difference is North have no star players at all. Carlton had Cripps, Walsh, Curnow, Mckay plus several others, just had a dud coach in Teague. They are years away from playing finals even.

Clarkson has said he'd only go to a side that he felt he could take all the way to the top.
