Flags and Cups only thank you.
It's the Carlton Heritage. Or have you forgotten?
Oh Puuuuuurlease !
Give me a break.
What are you going to say next? "We're Carlton @#$%&! the rest!"?
The more teams play in finals type matches, where the heat is ratcheted up, the more they get used to it and thrive.
The game against Melb the other night was finals like, and will be great for the team.
They will gain confidence out of the fact they won such a tough game.
Tough, low score, where every opportunity to gain connectivity with teammates is rare and the players have to maximise those opportunities.
The last 4 weeks have been Finals like: Port Saints Pies and Melb. Big occasions, Big noisy crowds, everything on the line, hard nosed commitment to contest after contest, and selfless footy.
Heritage will come up and players will hear it. Whether it plays a part or not depends on individuals. I'm sure Carlton supporters, Silvagni and Hollands will; who else was a Bluebagger growing up?
I love saying, and will continue to be saying "We're Carlton @#$%&! the rest!", and when we win the Flag....I will be saying it really really loud. Dees supporters in the last few days have given me the shits, like an entitled lot who won a flag infront of no one.
