No excuses today. Not even the outs.

Agree Donny, on talent and recent form this should be a win, we’ve covered our outs pretty well

I reckon this as close to a 50/50 game as you can get, but we're out to $2.75 head to head.....wow someone seems to know something, or maybe that's why bookies drive Mercs :wink:

Here is a bold prediction.


No. 3, Marc Murphy, is going to play a good, really good, game, today.


The eternal optimist.

Not an excuse, but the outs will have an impact. I don’t think we ready to cover losing our #1 ruckman, our 2 best small defenders (1 of whom is still our best leader) and an experienced key forward in one hit.

Not an excuse, it’s just where I think we’re at.

I haven’t seen North this year but they are a team we regularly have trouble with. It’s no surprise to me the bookies have North as slight favourites.

I don't disagree ABNS, but by now we should be well beyond relying on 30+ year olds to handle the workload and lead the way. They won't be around for much longer anyway, so these guys should be prepared for life after them.

Today is an ideal opportunity for the "New Carlton" to take the reigns. Failure to do so will be a massive setback.

Not sure a loss will be that dramatic, unless it’s by 100.

“Massive setback” is a bit OTT.

But I agree with the sentiment that we want our young blokes to step up sooner rather than later.
