we got the balance wrong - we must get some speed into that forward half - Garlett/Yarran/Robbo/Walker - 2 of these will change that forward half dramatically

Warnock to ruck with hammer - Kruise to CHf Santy to HHF

So I'd play

Betts Fev Garlett/Yarran
Walker/Robbo Kruise Setanta

and I think the team would change dramatically - thing is 3 of those players are in their first year and Tex and Warnok have been injured all year so we need to be patient.

Our balance is not good at the moment - I'd even give AJ a go forward - give us some pressure in the forward fifty. Chnage happens quickly when the balance is right

of course we could just chuck the bath water out and run screaming from the room.

Our entire history?

Drama queen statement there.

Must have been in hibernation the last 7 years. :lol:

In 1999 Essendon* destroyed us twice during the home and away season, let's hope history can repeat.

Although the opening post is at least restrained compared to the absolute tripe that has been posted by the usual keyboard heroes on the main board since last Friday, it still reeks of the same drama queen shit.

Is the expectation for glory that attention deficit syndrome affected because of the immediacy of the forum, or are apparent supporters really that convinced of their own opinion?

We are as much a work in progress as any middle tier side at the moment and although a thrashing by Essendon* may be hard to stomach, particularly in the tired fashion our team capitulated- there's half a season to go for us. It's not over.

Posters on here are as irrational and paranoid and scathing as the some media and most opposition supporters at times when it comes to Carlton. And worse than that- hypocritical.

Is it that hard to keep the faith?

Go Blues


Happy to revisit this at the end of round 22.........but that's OK, wer'e a work in progress as you say, just like Petrocelli's house
