PRO: That's our '95 Sydney game out the way

CON: There's still the St Kilda game to go

But it's plain sailing after that

I'm a Houla fan, but hasn't really done anywhere near enough the last 5 quarters.

PROS
-Good to see Rhys O'Keeffe finally debut, wish it was from the start of the game though.

-Third quarter fightback, albeit short lived. The WCE throw that resulted in a goal snuffed out that though.

-All those bandwagoners in the media can now bugger off.

-Reality check, hopefully the boys can bounce back next week.

CONS
-Not strictly match related but WHY THE FLOWER WAS THE ROOF LEFT OPEN???? I spent the first half being blinded by the sun and only able to see half of the ground (how must it be having to actually play in those conditions?). Then i spent most of the second half being rained on. Flower the dips*** morons who made that decision. Three weeks of being able to only see half the game- thanks for nothing Collo. The only redeeming feature of your rubbish stadium is your roof- how about you use it???? Thank goodness we are not playing in that dump next week, and the sooner we are permanently out of that hole the better.

-Our inability to take a mark in our forward 50 regularly, we really missed Waite this week, hope he is back soon.

-Leaving an obviously injured Jamison on the ground for 20 minutes before taking him off. Playing injured players never works, yet we wasted nearly a whole quarter with Jamison on the ground who was unfortunately a liability. And why play an obviously not right Ellard? He may be preferred over Brock McLean but he really was not able to contribute at all.

-Warnock's timid game. It seems that it has taken until the last month that Hampson has been regularly playing with the enough aggression at the contest, would be great if Warnock could learn from Hampson's last month.

-I hate hearing the umpires names before the game and thinking we are in for a rough game.....and being right.

-Carlton supporters giving hell to their own- save it for the opposition and the umpires who really deserve it.

-Having to listen to that rubbish Big Bird song TWICE. All I could think of was Sesame Street. IMO definitely the worst club song. There are a few turgid tuneless numbers in the AFL but I don't think their lyrics come close to the crapness of that number.

Pro:-

I had $25 on the Eagles to win @ $4.70!

Con:-

I had $25 on the Eagles to win @ $4.70!

$4.70 is great value, especially when you think we went into this game without Curnow, robbo, & dugian.

The importance of these three players is so crucial to this side and without them, we will struggle.


And I'll give you the hot tip........ If those 3 dont play next week, and If Jammo isn't fit for next week, I'm loading up on Richmond.

Wow .... thanks for that ... $25 @$4.70 .... what are you gunna do with the winnings ? .... update your scooter maybe.

Pros- Henderson back in defence in the 2nd half. Hope the MC keep him there.

Cons

- Austin not up to it IMO
- Houlihan
