They make terrible decisions

Bell played on trying to draw a man then kicks on his left (when struggles on right), Armfield kicking inboard and missing targets by 20 metres, Menzel missing easy goals.

Forward line is a joke, no wonder they don't want to kick it in there though

They have done it the past few years for "Just Think Round" raising money for prevention of alcohol fuelled violence. I presume it is still that reason.

Carlton have, by far, the worst game plan in the league.

Then Gibbs has an airy after a good ruck tap to him. 1 minute later Bell gives him a nice handball receive which he shanks straight to Geelong. Lucky he signed for 5 years! :shock:

Kick wide and backwards, allowing the other team plenty of time to set up their zone behind the ball.

Oh, in that case, yes. I call that "no other option" but some might call it a game plan.

Then Jones takes a mark 55 out, handballs to Armfield who then sells Yarran out. Absolute stupidity

The game plan is what? Handball to people under pressure? Miss easy targets? Miss easy goals?

Blame the players not the Game Plan
