The beauty of being a Carlton supporter in the current era, 18 points in front at 3/4 and as nervous as #@$@!.

Back in the 80s it'd be a case of knowing and expecting we'd go on smash the other side in the last qtr. now we just hope to hold on by a point...lol.

How can a stat (free kicks) which is only probabilistic in nature (for the non-mathematicians, it's like heads vs tails) be 9 to 17. That really should be grounds for an official enquiry. Every time it's more than 25% out, haul the umpires in and ask them wtf they're up to, abs rested for the next week.

Both teams are playing well, this is a great contest.

We’ve got a handy lead but I’m a bit worried about Teague’s ability to make a close game out of anything. Blues by a point.

Yes it is but we have to get up from here or it will be a major setback for their confidence.
The boys have been in front all night and playing good footy.
They shouldn't concede 4 goals to zip from here.

Need to hang on here.

Early goal would be nice

I suspect we will just try to hang on - which I don't think we are good at. Still need to attack.

Absolutely. Averaged a tick over 3 goals a quarter thus far. Kick 3 goals this quarter and we win.
