Cripps, Walsh, Weitering, McGovern, McKay, Pittonet
All our leaders went missing in that last quarter

LOL Carlton, terrible habit of just fading away in second halves, they were up by 43 points at one stage.

100%, I might alone in feeling sorry for Voss, his players continue to let him down but he still (and will this week) cops alot of the blame.

Players keep letting him down well drop them, regardless if its a Cripps, Walsh etc has to draw the line in the sand at some stage or he will be at Centrelink

In fairness to those mentioned they have been around the mark so far Pittonet had a shocker today but he has been one of their best first couple of games

Issue is quite simple, why are they fading out in the 2nd halves and being run over, surely its not a fitness issue

They’re physically fit just not mentally fit
It’s in their heads surely

About 4 minutes to go at a centre bounce, young lad gets through a Cripps tackle because he is stuffed and can’t get his arms up enough to tackle properly

Cripps gave up
Hate to say it but he did
Fit or not he should have stuck the tackle

That’s as much, if not more, mental as is physical

I think its the gameplan everyone knows if you can stick it out for a half against the contested style of carlton, when the game opens in the 2nd half you will be able to score if you "get it over the back" its a structural issue also which has been plaguing the club for a decade.

Could be time to start splitting the 4 points up, 1 point for each quarter. Not sure of any other way of fitting six teams into the bottom 4.

Gonna be some absolute beltings this season and beyond.
