    2012/13 Melbourne Victory Thread

    As the season progresses and our squad starts to adapt to the Ange system, hopefully we can make finals and have a real shot at it. We will need a steady contribution from all our midfield/attacking players if we are to score enough goals this season. We know what to expect from Flores, Thompson...

    The Melbourne City Thread

    Why do I keep reading about this youth policy that Scott Munn keeps banging on about? You guys have one of the oldest teams in the league with 7 players over 30. Shits me to tears.

    2012/13 Melbourne Victory Thread

    I didn't see what was so unattractive about Merrick's style of football. I get that we didn't use width or get the full backs overlapping but some of the passing in close and around the top of the box was a delight to watch. Also watching Fred/Hernezdez with the ball, coming out of defence, on...

    Kidding right? The atmosphere created at AAMI is 10x better even when Etihad has the seats in. Also, there's not a bad seat in the stadium, the same can't be said about Etihad.

    Game Day Round 19 Carlton v Sydney Game Day Thread

    What makes him so talented? Judd - Contested ball king and extreme leadership ability. Murphy - Accumulates plenty of the footy and an incredibly hard worker. Carrazzo - Can shut down his opponent as well as raking up big individual stats, including the most important in modern day...

    Game Day Round 19 Carlton v Sydney Game Day Thread

    That's sort of what I'm eluding to. He is nothing more than a role player, as simple as that. If we go into the specifics of individual plays then I'm sure I could find plenty of half-hearted efforts over the course of the year. Unfortunately, like other high draft picks, Gibbs isn't able...

    Game Day Round 19 Carlton v Sydney Game Day Thread

    It seems as though many Carlton fans cannot accept the fact that Gibbs isn't and won't be as good as we once thought. Sure, he will always have a spot in the team but he certainly is not one of our most talented players. He has a very good track record on Goodes, not only shutting him down but...

    Game Day Round 19 Carlton v Sydney Game Day Thread

    The effort was there, we can't fault that. The midfield and forward line had no continuity, it seemed like the boys train in their separate groups and only meet up on match day. Players were mistiming their leads, forwards were out of position and we were going long to smalls outnumbered in the...

    Keep your feet Davies. That was very, very poor.

    Forward structures have completely let us down. To much kicking and hoping and our leads are to very poor positions.

    Preview Carlton v Sydney - Sunday 5th August 3:15PM @ Etihad - Team - Post #341

    After looking at the interchange for this week, my assumption is that Collins will be the sub. A bit of a shame considering he has been in some decent form over the last few weeks.

    4-6 shots? I remember Murphy missing a couple, but apart from that?

    Game Day Round 16 Carlton vs North Melbourne Game Day Thread

    How many marks inside 50 did we have? Also the positions we had the shots from were often from a pocket or a quick kick out of a pack. It's not as if we couldn't send Henderson forward neither, considering the back line options we had (Jamieson, Watson, Mcinnes with potentially Duigan floating...

    Game Day Round 16 Carlton vs North Melbourne Game Day Thread

    Duigan spent too long forward without having an impact on the game, whilst Henderson was getting beaten down back. They should have switched positions by atleast half time as it was obvious to everyone inside the stadium that we had no-one to kick to. Very testing times ahead for everyone...

    A-League - Round 15: Melbourne Victory v Adelaide

    So he finally done what a defensive midfielder is meant to do? He's still shite and we desperately need two new central midfielders who know how to pass the ball and control the game in midfield.

    Andrew Krakouer wins MOTY

    Anyone who has played football for long enough will know that it's much harder to launch yourself onto an individuals shoulders compared to a pack. Also, Walker had to track the man and the ball, then leap, onto a guy who is 198cm's tall, off practically a standing starter. Krakouer had a run...

    Preview 1st Semi Final - Carlton v West Coast Sat 17th Sep at Patersons Stadium - Team/post #551

    The excitement and nerve levels have built up as the week has progressed, and I'm sure it's the same for every other Carlton supporter. And now we're in successive finals for the first time in a very long time. What's caught me by surprise is the complete lack of backing from any other...

    Toast Shane Crawford: Thanks for taking the pressure off our guns

    I don't rate his opinion one little bit, but to be fair to him, he did say he's basing his opinions on what they've done so far. Rioli has done more than Kreuzer.

    Rnd 21 2011- Match Discussion - Carlton v Freo @ Subiaco

    I talk about Russell because he is the most comparable to Davies. Can't see Davies lining up on a Cloke of Franklin, as Jamison would. Unless you think otherwise?

    Rnd 21 2011- Match Discussion - Carlton v Freo @ Subiaco

    Good result away from home, if we kicked straight in the first half then only god knows what could have happened. I think it's time to squeeze Russell back into the side for Davies (no disrespect).
