Franklin will be kicking his ton against us. Looks like this one might turn into a shootout.

Fev to kick his 8th goal after the siren to get the blues home by 3 points. Half the crowd to jump the fence and celebrate an awesome victory in style with the whole team. Thats my prediction :-D

In the first quarter I would think. :(

Would everyone hate Carlton just that little bit more for stopping him getting 100?? :)

Hope so!!! C'mon bluedog - we'll do fine!

If that was to occur, during pre-season the boys would be firing and bouncing off walls so to speak.


Definitely!

If we play like we know we can (and have shown sporadically this year), then there's no reason we can't win.

Why the hell not?

We've stood up against some of the biggest teams in the league this year .. just because this will be our last game, doesn't mean we should treat it like we did last year

I love the optimism on here... but seriously we are no hope vs these blokes...

Franklin will get his 100th in the 1st qtr
we will lose by 50+ pts.
Fev will kick 5... season over

Cheers holly. You have a great record of getting us over the line spectacularly:

Lions by 59 points
Port by 28 points
Bulldogs by 24 points
Freo to beat us...though you didn't give a margin.

You have been right 11 times this year though.

Years of getting bent over by these crappy teams has taken its toll on my attitude going into games.... i always think we will lose..... it doesnt hurt as much when you expect it.... but im very happy to be proven wrong.

I love Carlton and im EXPECTING top 8 next season... anything less ill be livid!

Actually after giving it a little more thought... Their midfield is hard, and they have the sort of game that will flush our bad skills out and make us pay on the rebound
Hawks by 74pts... that is my honest tip. Not what i want to happen, but what i think will happen!
Go Blues

Lions by 59 = Carlton by 6.

Hawks by 74 = Carlton by 38! :shock:

Just looking forward to seeing us in our last proper game until next March/April. Hope the young fellas do well, hope Juddy plays a blinder just before the All Australian selection panel meets for the final time, hope someone collects Lance B Franklin with a massive but fair hip & shoulder (if there is such a thing any more) inside the first five minutes, so he can get his hundredth against someone else.

Oh, 8 for Fev would be nice. And AW to take mark of the year, hopefully standing on Campbell Brown's head. Also, would love to see Clarkson get so frustrated he throws the phone, only to have it rebound off the glass and smack him in the face. Oh, and also for Kennett to think they have the game won and reverse his stripey jacket, only to inadvertently reveal ticket stubs for the Men's Gallery in the inside pocket, which the photographers pick up and splash all over the front pages.

As lonh as we put in a respectable performance then the boys should go into next season thinking they can beat anyone (bar possibly Geelong). That will be good enough for me.

I will enjoy Buddy's ton. If the boy could kick straight he would have got it about 8 weeks ago. Scary really.

I hope Fev has a blinder and get there too. Would make it a match for the ages even if we lose. He'll need a fast start though, cause the Hawks will be all over him like a rainbow on an oil slick. 4 in the first term would be nice.

I have a number of text messages saved in my phone from my Hawk supporting mate, usually sent to me during time on in the 4th when we've lost. Been saving them for this match, hoping to fwd the lot right back to him. Hope we smash the Hawthorn Kennetts!

I hope Jeff comes out and says something truly embarrassing this week, and we can make the smarmy git eat his words.
