[Jimmae]

Out: Docherty, Ellard, Yarran
In: Holman, Armfield, Carrazzo

If Armfield doesn't come up, get DVR into the team.

 

[Azul]

If Armfield doesn't come up

Macca didn't sound confident on Army's broken army.

 

[HARKER]

We have a game this week? .................... When did this happen?

Nothing to lose except for a record losing margin. Smith, DVR, Holman and Jones to come in.

 

[Azul]

Nothing to lose except for a record losing margin.

If we're going to lose by 139 points this time, Henderson deserves a farewell game.

 

[RAPPA]

Whoever is in charge of Carlton's Facebook page just asked Fremantle if they had any players they were "resting" who wanted a game.

Found it legitimately amusing.

Fyfe may put his hand up to have a crack at an extra vote or two.

Wouldn't even trust him to hold the banner

 

[Jeremias]

Might bring my boots this week, just in case.

I think you'll find it is Carlton, not Auskick, who have been hit by injuries.

Yeah. We're playing hawthorn in the first week of September. That means we made the top 4 yeah?

If Caleb Daniel can do it, so can I.
(Wonder if they'll let me take the milk crate on the ground?)

 

[ferrisb]

I don't know what's with all the defeatism and fatalistic humour.

I for one don't think the team will have any retreat and surrender in them this week*.



* only because we have used up so much during the year, I don't think we could possibly have any left...

 

[Aphrodite]

I forgot we have a game on this weekend.

 

[HBF]

I forgot we have a game on this weekend.

Probably going to be a smashing of biblical proportions as well.

 

[Blue__Balls]

I forgot we have a game on this weekend.

Right..."game"...

 

[JamisonRun40]

I don't care who we play, just no to Jones.

 

[Broadside]

Probably going to be a smashing of biblical proportions as well.

we learned a lot from our last encounter, I am very confident we can keep the margin under 20 goals.

Dear Hawthorn,

We'd really like to see what it's like to have a decent forward for once. Would you be open to trading Liam Jones for Jaryd Roughead, just for one week, so we can try it out?

It would really help us to sort out our draft priorities this year, and might even allow us to score more than 5 goals for the match.

It's also probably the equivalent to resting Roughead before finals, as realistically he won't see more than 2 or 3 forward 50 entries per quarter.

Thanks kindly,

Carlton

 

[MC_Doggy_Frog18]

Hawks wont even try and will still beat us by 20 goals.

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

Have faith you guys! We can get within 20 goals, I can feel it!

 

[thylacine60]

I don't gamble but I'm tipping (hee hee) the line will be something like 80 points.

 

[Broadside]

Have faith you guys! We can get within 20 goals, I can feel it!

when was the last time we kicked 20 goals? I remember in the good old days we'd do that in a quarter.

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

when was the last time we kicked 20 goals? I remember in the good old days we'd do that in a quarter.

Way before my time.

 

[thylacine60]

when was the last time we kicked 20 goals? I remember in the good old days we'd do that in a quarter.

and that was 8 ball overs!

 

[Keyza]

we learned a lot from our last encounter, I am very confident we can keep the margin under 20 goals.

Here's hoping.

 

[Paulski19]

I wouldn't be putting any money on this game. Hawthorn wouldn't mind losing and going down to 4th.....Freo in week 1 would be a lot easier than West Coast.....
