HUGE thank you to all of my fellow Bluebaggers for your incredible support as we tick over 1,000 subs on YouTube - it’s a true testament to our shared passion and love for the Navy Blue! I hope you enjoy the content as much as I do creating it! 🙏🏻 Go Baggers! 💙💪🏻

We just want to shake his hand... WE JUST WANT TO SHAKE HIS HAND! 🤝🏻😤

@KathyStefanidis 😬

@BluebaggersEdge So how many points are we going to lose next week😬😬😬🤨

Let's look back at my prediction for not only how the entire North Melbourne game would unfold, but also the final margin being 10 points - all of which were spot on. Really says it all when seeing enough of this tripe turns me into Nostradamus. 🔮🤦‍♂️

TFW you’re subjected to yet another second half Carlton capitulation and loss... 🫠

Raw. Very raw. Post-match review with some great perspectives and views shared by some fellow Baggers who jumped on for a yarn. If you need a debrief, this is your safe space to vent. 🙏🏻

@Smithson2706 Not the case. In cricket a captain has more power as to positional changes over the coach, but that doesn't happen in footy. Coach dictates it all. Most Cripps can do is ensure teammates are in the correct set up spot at the bounce.

@BluebaggersEdge I reckon Cripps would have a say in deciding who’s goes into the centre bounce.

And our most potent outside speed in Jagga shunted from CBAs. But nah, it totally isn’t the coach as one of the major issues. 🤷🏼‍♂️

@GeorgeFlor41759 Again, just proves the wider issue is on those at board level ratifying these appointments, and the likes of the incompetent Brad Lloyd to find the right person for the job. Not hard to see. If any of those coaches amounted to anything they would've won flags elsewhere.

@BluebaggersEdge You had 8 coaches 😂

Does Wright need more evidence to stamp Voss’ papers? How about instructing the side to play safe, throwing numbers behind the ball when we are up by 4 goals. Inexcusable. An inherently defensive mindset that doesn’t fit the narrative of momentum, it stifles it. Bolton-esque.

@GeorgeFlor41759 He was well past relevancy in style, the Pies had the foresight to acknowledge that and shift to Bucks, which says it all. If coaches weren't held to account, we'd still have Leppa at Brisbane instead of dual-premiership coach in Fagan building the list and culture.

@BluebaggersEdge Michael Malthouse triple premiership coach and he even couldn’t stop the rot

@GeorgeFlor41759 If they got the correct appointment in the first place, we wouldn't be having this convo. The inexperience of Bolton and Teague was seen as an issue, so they wrongfully clung to Voss as the ONLY "experienced" candidate, but not necessarily the correct one for the job. Ask Wright.

@GeorgeFlor41759 No coach we have sacked in the last 2 decades has been the wrong decision at the time. None have gone on to have success in the same role we relieved them from. The true issue beyond that is identifying the correct replacement. Board level issues, Brad Lloyd etc.

It's our first installment of "Raw Reactions" post-game, and what a game to start it. And the floor and mic is yours - jump on and join this cathartic session as we review an absolute shocker. Link will be provided in the live chat. 🎙️ JOIN: youtube.com/live/oP36gbgX0…

@tigaaaland Not when you throw extra men behind the ball structurally when you are up by 20+ forcing players into a defensive mindset and thereby stunting momentum and forward attack when you have less numbers forward of the ball.

@BluebaggersEdge The team are in winning positions and can’t execute - says more about the dud players than the coach

This is a byproduct of not acting on what should’ve happened. ZERO has changed structurally. Same issues persist. A stubborn coach cannot adapt and refuses to alter what hasn’t worked. But he’ll smirk his way through a presser, and gloss positives out of overwhelming negatives.

@JasonSciberras If you go in with the expectation it’s going to happen every week, it softens the blow. Take care of that ticker! 🙏🏻

@BluebaggersEdge i didn't have multiple heart surgeries as a kid only for Carlton to break my heart again

If Voss smirks during his press conference to start, we need Wright to come in, kick down the media banner, grab the mic and say...

@jeremykruse1 Both sides had some shit skills and I felt exactly the same. Reflection of where we are at, absolutely.

@BluebaggersEdge TBH, I was surprised we were in front at half time, given poor skills and intensity

Says it all, doesn’t it. Carlton legit the opposite of Pies’ strength in recent seasons, having belief to come back in games and win. We are our own kryptonite, giving teams belief due to our trend. Horrid.

@tim_michell Someone that knows how to coach modern day footy and isn’t stubbornly stuck in their ways despite an archaic gameplan. 🍻

Let's say Voss goes. Who would honestly want that job?

Another Voss masterclass. 👏🏻 Cerra provides ZERO outside run compared to Jagga who is our only avenue for outside speed outside of Walsh. Dumb. Just dumb.
