Paul Roos: It's time Carlton claimed a big scalp

Quote:
At some point you have to define yourself as an individual and a team. Today is the day for this Blues team to let everyone know it has finally arrived.

kind of...
but can't help thinking he's setting us up for a fall.
I don't for a minute think he thinks we can win today/tomorrow.
However..
I'm starting to think/hope we can
reckon the team believe we can...
so anything can happen.
good to hear him use the words 'beloved blues.'

or is he pitching for a job?? hmmmm

Paul Roos: It's time Carlton claimed a big scalp

Paul Roos wrote:
The last game of football I saw before arriving at the Junction Oval to join Fitzroy under-19s was the 1979 Grand Final.

I was there when my beloved Blues beat the Magpies and saw one of my heroes, Wayne Harmes, legally knock the ball back to Ken Sheldon for a game-turning goal.

As a Carlton supporter until that 1980 season I'm well aware of the significance of today's game.

I finally understand Roos' dislike of Carlton. Roos is Carlton's version of Robert Walls. Playing against the Blues like Walls who played against his former club Essendon* has made Roos hate us. Walls wouldn't have liked Essendon* with Sheedy as their coach in the eighties. Roos may have grown to hate Fitzroy's former "landlords" who were winning flags under an arrogant Elliott and Collins. :thumbsup: :lol:

Today could be one of the great days of the history of the Carlton Football Club.

We haven't beaten anyone of note yet.

I don't expect anything to change this week.
