Come on Bolts. I want to see a few frees against for running too far or HTB because someone got tackled taking a risk. I'm bloody sick of watching us hand the ball over meekly through skill errors and poor decision making.


I think we're leading the comp in HTB free kicks against.

when you have Kennedy & Curnow in your team who aren't super quick plus the umps love to call it against that stat is easy to believe.

Must win game , if we loose to Gold Coast twice in the season without so much as whimper it will be a disaster for the club , we simply must have a red hot crack tonight , I think we can win but the boys must play positive attacking footy. Bolts just let them go out and play and take the shackles off , give us something to smile about, GO BLUES !!!,

Honestly, I fail to see how losing another match would be a disaster.
Of course we want to see maximum effort for 4 quarters, and then it will be what it will be.
Also agree that I want t see our boys off the leash.
Why the hec not!! :thumbsup:

We play on more than any other team. I don't know what extra "shackles" Bolts can take off.
We can relax our defensive game and get beaten by 130 points I suppose. I'm sure that will go down well with the rank and file.

And not turn the ball over with poor disposal would be helpful.

Polson! Worked out his attack on the pack reminds me of Sidebottom. If only he comes close to being that level.

I'm swaying that way....for many reasons.

Firstly because we know why we shouldn't have lost to them in Rnd 2.
A lot of injuries and a lack of continuity has changed our 2018 landscape since then.



I'm working through this in my head.
Too many good things have happened to Carlton this week in the media and with the public at large as a result.

I'm not hearing players quote Harry McKay when referring to talk about "young group showing signs together", "All us extended our contracts", and "players who are showing something.

I'm hoping these are signs of what might be tonight. Harry stars.

GCS form last week both in contested and running the ball was impressive.
I'm glad Lynch isnt playing. Rowe will take 2 Metre Peter.
Weiters will have a crack at Peter Wright too. He's in good form too.

Carlton are providing a great learning environment this game.
Win or lose our kids are growing i these games.

I can't wait for their 21sts over the next few years.

Carlton surprise win by 14 points because we didnt pick up injuries during the game.

I bet Cripps has inspired the young guys he's referring too in his interview:

Dow OBrien Smmo Fisher Weiters and Charlie

If they all fire with Cripps and Murphy plays a hue one in his final games as captain.... :smoking:

Ill look out for that tonight.

I thought he's shown signs in every game, but his disposa/ decision making has let him down.

As they say, he's creating opportunities, and he'll learn from that.

Go Polson. This one's made for you.
