I would've liked to see honey get a game but I'm hearing he's done a hammy?

It's actually a pretty good side and I reckon we'll win.

Pace is good...
Hope that's not the only strategic tool in the tool box though..


We have to get smarter as well...Sydney just did the footy version of rope a dope...

We were way too underdone and too tall last week..
Would have worked well if Caz was clunking them when they were near him...instead we were players short...too underdone and too tall....and too many players down...that's why it was left top too few and we were run over.

SCG is small ground...easier to defend...WCE will know that..will we?

Let's hope we can bring the pressure tomorrow.

Just watched a game against Hawthorn in 1995. Comparing it to now, in every aspect, was like comparing chalk and cheese. So well drilled and understood every move of their teammates. Never seen pressure, hardness, skill like it and still don't see it in the current era from any side. Forgot what it was like. Hawthorn were physically and mentally shattered mess by the last qtr. I've never been big on ruck stuff but watching Madden I forgot what the craft was like. Won near every tap, tapped with authority, knew where he was tapping, and the Carlton mids, knew where it was coming, read it so well and jumped on it like a seagull on a hot chip. His tap work made Nic Nat to his mids look like an amateur. There was barely one out of the centre didn't go to advantage. Must've been 90% to advantage out of the centre.

Where did it all go? Admittedly that was one of the great individual sides of all time but still, we are the opposite that side in every respect. It's a reminder of what we need to bring if we are ever going to rise right up the ladder again.


What a great day and even better year. Amazing 'team' with talent, mongrel and skill on every line.




If I remember rightly this was the 1st of our 16 wins in a row to sweet 16

I watch every game from that era now expecting us to cough up 5+ goals in a row and losing, therefore rewriting history.




I'm not jaded...

Do yourself a favour & watch the first qtr of us & Geelong at PP the same year, one of the best quarters of footy you'll ever see. Both teams.




Probably the best and most exhilarating game of football I’ve ever seen at Princes Park.

:thumbsup:


Although I would have liked to have been at the Carlton -v- Geelong game 23rd June 1990 when we came back from 48 points down to win - but had another more pressing engagement that day - the birth of my beautiful daughter.

:lol:
Silvagni goal to win it?

The Levimites got him to 150
It's OK to drop him now

Great to see some outside run added and cleaner disposal.
Plowman, SPS and O’Brien to come the following weeks would be ideal.

Thrilled with the selections

I expect the Murph selection to be rewarding for all, or it wont look good.

I back the former , but I've got Blue Skies Prozac eyes

Oh, I see you've been watching the Essendon* love in this week.

Sorry Gro, it's only the cheats that suddenly have premiership credentials after defeating an Eagles side that has 5 players injured in the game and gets run over the top of.

Effedruggies* played against a team with 5 injured players: 22 v 17, probably more lame, kaput, or best case 17 v 18 if you like, whatever. They* had Dylan Shiel missing.
Add Shuey McGovern etc etc

they* beat no one.

We have to win to have any cred. That's all.
