Finally got my tickets after waiting till the last minute to see what was available.
Ticketek only sell crap seats to non-members so I have to sit in crap seats. My friends aren't members so I will be sitting with them in their crap seats. My usual source of extra members tickets hasn't recieved his yet!!! He is spewing.
My mexican wife's first big game at the G. I usually take her to Docklands where the climate is under control. I want her to see the MCG pumping. No visitor to Australia should miss the chance if it comes up.
Looking forward to the game. I just hope we are behind the Carlton goals and not the Essendon*!

M56 Q 12-15 in case you're nearby. No, I won't have the blue sombrero this time. But I might be able to be overheard explaining in Spanish what's going.

Looking for a Juddless win. If we get on top early it will be a blowout as Essendon* start hard and then usually die. If they get in front early, it will be a close one. Either way, I'll take it.



You'll enjoy the game from those seats BS - great view!

Go Blues!

:lol: That is very cute!
it strikes me how much our Sticks is like Jonno Brown...in speech manner and stature.
I sense a win...dreamed a win....in fact I just KNOW we are gonna win this.
Anyone else gettin' the vibe?? (did have some mushrooms from the garden yesterday... :lol: )

If you dont want to see that Teddy, I'd recommend you stay home for the night because there will be plenty of tempo management in this game.


Teddy, you may want to try Name a Game and buy dvd's from some 80's or 90's style football too :thumbsup:


Hey, I have all the DVDs and I saw all the premierships. :thumbsup:

Its just that I can't stand to see the defence leaking goals when they start playing tempo footy. It happens every time. If their skills are up to it, okay. Against Richmond Thornton put the ball in the air in the first quarter and the Tiges kicked the next 3 goals. That is what I am talking about.

If the team can execute the skill of tempo footy properly then great. Practice makes perfect and maybe even TBird will have it sorted out this Saturday night.

Carlton to win, so as the late, great wrestling commentator Jack Little would say, BE THERE !

It doesnt happen every time Teddy. You just recall the times it happens. Sometimes they raise the ball and go long :wink:

Probably the best seats for level M is around AA, which you are. Any closer and it feels like you are looking up at the play with the way the MCG is built. Not too bad really

Perfect match. Not only the right match up but we picked up Jordan in the same draft with Essendon* drafting Monfries a pick later at no 10 if my memory serves me correct.

Armfield or AJ on Stanton

If Ratten doesn't block up space and pay them any respect, all their pissy little front runners such as Stanton, Dyson, (Jake Melksham set to debut for Essendon* - Oh look! Another one!), Zaharakis, Reimers, Howlett, etc. will cut us up again. Inconsistent players by foot who always turn it on against us, yet would struggle to find their man and the footy at the Sherrin factory.

Ratten can't let this one trick pony get another win.

I've been to the last 5 losses.

I'm not going on saturday. Wedding.

If we win, it's down to my lack of attendance.
