Led by Cripps,the players then delivered brutally honest peer-to-peer feedback,player by player. The honesty session was not run by a leadership consultancy but was Cripps and Sam Docherty's idea as the co-captains sought to take player ownership of the performance.
Young Carlton forward Harry McKay said"honest feedback"and"looking guys in the eye"were part of the tough review.
McKay was half an hour late to his scheduled media conference on Tuesday,because the review went longer than planned.
"There was some really honest feedback from everyone,obviously the weekend was super disappointing,"McKay said.
"There were some challenging things said and we need to bounce back this week.[The review] was driven from'Crippa'and'Doc',but the whole playing group bought in and that's what it has to be,it can't just be one or two people.
"When you don't bring effort and the competing isn't strong,that's what you really have to challenge.
