@ringsau: @Smithersss the WADA position on AOD9604 is it is banned under S0 and has been since S0 was created on 1/1/11. I have reconfirmed that.

I wouldn't be surprised if last night's events were all contrived just to fire them up for this game.

Nothing's changed apart from Essendon* receiving a load of Robbo semen injections.

Feeling conflicted about this game. I want to watch Carlton but can't stomach the thought of watching those drug fueled cheats.

Well, you'd like to think that they're still burned by what happened last time and will do everything to ensure it doesn't happen again.

But as always you can never tell with our mob, especially on the back of a pretty rousing win.

A poster last week, (can't remember who), levelled what I thought was way-over-top criticism of Brock.

Richmond v Carlton
9 Brock McLean (Carl)
6 Mitch Robinson (Carl)
5 Kade Simpson (Carl)
4 Andrew Walker (Carl)
3 Ed Curnow (Carl)
3 Brett Deledio (Rich)

Just sayin'


Yeah I remember him saying something about Brocky being a cancer on the team....he wasnt a regular.

I am not a big fan of Brock's because of his lack of pace, and becuase he doesn't run the other way and nullify his opponent...maybe because he can't... but I like all the other things he brings to the table.

Whilst he hasnt got much competition from the reserves he deserves his spot and that's it.

He played a great game last week. In the last qtr when Delidio went for that run from HBF to HFF Brock didnt give up the chase. Never looked like closing him down, but never gave up the chase. That impressed the !@#$%& out of me. He's playing like a leader.

I have no doubt he's not on any other team's radar, and can't see why he doesn't get another contract albeit for just a year. Year at a time is good.

Really rapt in Walker's game. He's been down for a long time now.
One of my favourites, so I give it to him when he deserves it, because he's also my kids' favourites too.
When he puts the pedal to the metal...he's a line breaker.
You can tell when he's "ON". showed leadership.

Curnow is MOST improved in 2013 for mine. Unbelievable transformation.
I mean this guy didnt seem to have a clue on what to do with the ball when he got it.
Now he closes down his opponent..he can run with all game, and gives it off to the best positioned most times.
Good hands and kicking within his capabilities.

Lets give it to these Bumbers this weekend.
They have some critical players out in Fletcher (he finds a way), Heppell (all class), Wilderwich (pace which cuts us up) and Dempsey (who starts attack from defense). Hurley back is a plus for them...and we have to kick or keep the high ball away from him, and hopefully Bellchambers doesn't play either (he does damage to our talls)

Lets needle them all game. :roll:
The Mexican Wave is a very funny idea...opening post of this thread. :clap:

This is a MUST WIN game. MUST.

Come on. I want 8th without AFL penalties...coz I want them to lose next years points before the season starts. :lol:


Good point about Curnow Bondi. He's slipped under the radar a bit, but in some ways he's having his "break out" year, (whatever that means).


Agree on Curnow being most improved. He seems to know his limitations with his disposal and doesn't try for too much. But the biggest transformation I see is his competitiveness and willingness to have a crack at his man. He really seems to have grown an appetite for it and I just didn't see that before. Good on him, he's taken some big scalps this year.

Love to see us make the 8 from here - it'd do us the world of good. Up the Baggers.

The details of the charges today will have a huge impact on the playing group at Essendon*.

They've been hearing from the club and their God (Hird) for 6 months on how nothing was done that will compromise your health or your careers blah blah.

Now they AFL has gone whack and said you're all [REDACTED], and once we finish @#$%&! you ASADA is going to @#$%&! what remains of you.

I'd struggle to play under those circumstances.

The only worry is our boys are thinking that the Bombers boys will be so demoralized we only have to rock up.

Screw this bullshit about not sledging.

Get into their heads Blues. Throw them off their game, and bury the flowers once and for all.

NO MERCY! NO MERCY! FINISH HIM!!!!

What I want for this and coming weeks:

Beat the scum* this week - preferably courtesy of a dodgy umpiring decision
Have the scum* get an injunction to play finals and lose the first week
Have the scum* lose all their points for next year coz Demetrispew will be really p!ssed off
Have the scum* get creamed by Demetrispew for the next two drafts
Have Golden Boy suspended for a year
... plus a $1Mill fine just because that Essendon** f*#k Evans f#*ked us so badly 10 years ago

Carry on

I reckon there will be quite a few people ejected from the ground this Saturday night.

As many Carlton supporters as possible must get down there this Saturday and support the boys and show those cheats how a real club does it.

There's a lot of hyperbole on this topic so I felt I needed to be the voice of reason :thumbsup:

Hopefully some of our supporters actually turn up to this one...

But even if we win, Essendon* will probably just release a statement straight after in which they will vigorously deny that the result is valid and that it was an "abuse of process" that the match ever went ahead... :roll:

Curnow seems to be playing with the same dash and flair he did when he debuted in 2011 before he did his shoulder. :wink:

Curnow has an amazing knack for stealing the ball from opponents hands. I watch that week in week out and he's got a gift...then he dishes it out effectively. Keeper.
