There's so much I could say...

There is no way that Warnock should be brought into this game, its just too massive of a risk to have him debut in such a big game. Hes not entirely fit still, especially at this level.

Id definitely bring in Betts and Garlett for Johnson and Wiggins/Browne, keep Yarran in the team and see if Austin can make it.

INS: Betts, Warnock
Out: Johnson, toss the coin on a few depending on Matchups.

Hammer & Warnock to stretch Brisbanes ruck (Clarke). Special K up forward. Setanta to Brown if he gets outta hand. Someone to smash the Sherminator...

We can win this.

Johnson should not play for the Carlton football club again this season...

He just crumbles under pressure.

He needs to go away and get his head right.....

He just lacks................

As terrible as yesterday was (I'm still deeply disappointed ), we just have to put it behind us and focus on Brisbane. If there ever was a game not to dwell on, this is it.

Brisbane are quality opposition and will be terribly hard to beat, especially at home. We simply have to take confidence out of the fact that we've won the past 3 including 2 at the Gabba.

We still have a long way to go however we've proven that our best footy is highly competitive even against the top sides.

For mine, we just have to galvanise and keep it positive this week. Back ourselves to bounce back and have a real crack. Admittedly finals are a completely different ballgame but the beauty is you just never know what might happen...

In saying all that though, if we go out with a whimper I'll be extremely pissed and Ratten & Co will suffer the consequences

kthnx

As it is, we are playing Brisbane, and should we win, we get the loser of Geelong/Bulldogs.

We are 4-0 this year against those 3 teams.

Had we beaten Adelaide, we'd be playing Essendon*, and with a win would come the loser of St.Kilda/Collingwood.

Against those 3 teams we are 1-4.

Things are falling nicely into place.

Will Chris Judd be playing this week? Opposition supporters (mainly Essendon*) have been ringing in on the radio saying he punched someone and why there has been no mention. This is of course is in retaliation to the Matthew Lloyd incident. I wasn't at the game. Does he have anything to worry about because without him we can start our holidays now.

How whole season has been about inconsistency (particularly early) and bringing our best game to the table.

The back end of the season we have found more consistency and it is essential that regardless of who, what or where we turn up, we play the most intensive and consistent brand of football we can.

We do that we beat Brisbane, we don't we struggle.

"Chris Judd" and "Punch someone" dont belong in the same sentence.

I'd say its just the scum being what they are "SCUM"

They must be upset because that piece of shit (MONGA) will be rubbed out for well........ being a piece of shit!

1)Betts into the middle (X factor)
2)Fev and Kruise rotate between CHF and FF. Yarran stays next to Kruise. garlett next to Fev (Y factor)
3)Gibbs plays the old fashioned 'centreman' position...becomes the go to man in the middle when the hbs are running out of defence and then becomes the chief architect as far as weighing up who the ball gets delivered to in the forward line (see (2)) (Z factor)
4)Hope and pray they win so we can see them in Melbourne (divine intervention factor)

If I want your opinion, I'll give it to you!

Essendon* supporters are just dirty we lost cos now they know they have go to adelaide and play the crows who will tear them a new one.

And they have to do it with out Lloyd and quite possibly Ryder, and they will get belted.

So let them be bitter.
