I don't know why all the talk of match ups and on field positions, we will lose and continue to lose all the way to a 2018 wooden spoon to add to our collection.

This is Carlton. And anyone who thinks we are anything other than a bottom four side is deluding themselves. No all is not lost, rebuild blah blah blah I get it. But this season? Why bother?

Bottom of the ladder. What's to be excited about? We beat Essendon**, that will keep me going until next season at least ...pfft

With any luck the AFL will bring in another couple of interstate clubs like Darwin and Tassie and rape another two or three seasons of talent at the expense of founding clubs like Carlton. That's always something to look forward too.

Maybe we can start scouting Romania and Ukraine for undiscovered talent? Jamaicans are pretty quick on their feet ...

idle. I have written you up a drink card to the value of endless sorrow. you can use it anytime in The Crying Room. drink up, you need it buddy. :beer: :smile:

Croatia's the place. 7 footers to burn with a hunger to play sport.
You should go there and look.

Carlton v Collingwood.
S Rowe into named 18 for Polson.
Interchange: Garlett, Casboult, Polson, Kennedy.
Emergencies: Graham, Lang, Phillips, O’Shea.
O’Shea replaces Kerr (injured) as an emergency.


Any thoughts on why they would bring Rowe into the 18 late on Friday? :?
The interchange isn't finalised until tomorrow anyway. A bit unusual.

Getting inside Buckleys head and making him very scared. We just moved our Rowey weapon to the starting 18. #winningalready

"if what you are saying is;" No, the garbage that follows is what YOU are saying, not me. Pretty weak and baseless attack tbh, unimpressed.


attack :roll: I am attacking the phrase "untold damage" which does not mean 'damage but I do not what it is' it implies damage so severe, so terrible that it cannot be put into words. If you didn't mean that, good, don't use such a loaded phrase. When looking at discussion it is good to question the "phrases" used - I suggest reading up on Socrates. - "baseless" "pretty weaK" all loaded phrases - of course I will call them out - those words are designed to cement a point of view and so are fair game - at no point (unlike you) did I actually say anything about you, attack you, question your character etc./ I simply challenged a phrase - its a fairly adult thing to do, sorry of it offended you. :roll:

Rowe for Polson, don't care if he has Ebola; he should still play in front of Rowe.

Don't remember Socrates resorting to a strawman argument lol or being overly pedantic about phrases. Semantics are the last refuge of a stale and easily fooled mind.

well best go back and read Socrates - he always questioned the ready made phrases or the assumptions that were built upon such phrases - he understood what sounds like "a truth" is usually no such thing.

as for semantics - once again, there you go not trying to dismiss an argument but attacking the arguer (feeble mind etc) - which is the feeble mind - that which attacks the words used, or that which attacks the person speaking?

No, the feeble mind is the one that is intellectually dishonest by ascribing opinions of opponents that the other person simply cannot know eg. "If what you are saying is" >insert persons own unfounded translation/extrapolation. Someone who is skilled at debating would know this.

Anyway on reflection I take your point I could have used a better, less drastic phrase, lets move on shall we.

Pasted this elsewhere, probably more relevant here, especially in this game...

Looked alright in the first quarter against the tiges.... And against the Saints in the JLT....

I think if you look at the players and the play, then, versus now, you'll see that it's the personnel we can get on the park rather than the list in general which is limiting our run and carry

Go Blues

Oh good. You two were starting to lose me.

Now that's done can somebody please tell me what the damage is? Just tell me and then it will be the told damage instead of it remaining untold and we can all go to sleep.

TELL ME DAMN IT!!!!!
