Reading the match day thread from Round 18, the main points were:
- we were soft at the ball
- played undisciplined footy
- Swan and Dawes both reemed us good and proper
- Walker and AJ had terrible games
- Murphy and Gibbs had absolutely zero impact.... all left to Judd
- Played without structure
- Grigg was one of our better players

Lets see if anything improves this time around huh?

doooooooooooooooooooooooooogan will run with swan

BLUES to take the field..........!


kindest regards tommi

Silver-lining to this - if we cop a belting tonight at least we won't be pumped up next week by the media ahead of the Essendon* game. If we lose tonight, then I hope like mad the Bombers win.

Yes I had the opportunity to watch the first QTR and a half of that match this morning. Noticeable for the change in personnel at the Blues - which all seems good at this stage. (Johnson was not up to it as a player, AJ looked out of his depth, Fisher very poor his whole career despite trying hard etc).

But mainly what was striking was that we just weren't 'up for it' after about the 15 minute mark of the 1st. Really, we looked completely baffled by the Pies gameplan and had no idea how to counter it. No cohesion at all. I was at the game and it was one of the biggest shellackings I've ever seen, despite the scoreline being relatively modest - 50-odd points.

I would be devastated to see a repeat of that tonight. I don't think it will happen though. Anything under 30 points a win for the Blues, and hell, lets just knock them off!

Go Blues!!!!!!

Heading to the game soon. Should be a nice night, weather wise, hopefully the result as well will be in our favour.

Nice to hear a few commentators say that Carlton v Collingwood is the biggest rivalry in footy.

'Bout time they caught on.

I hope Essendon* folds.

I hate to be a wet blanket but I have a feeling we are in for a rude shock tonight..

That's not such a bad thing, it may give us a reality check and force us to lift our game for round 4 against Ess.
