Port playing well, but Carlton really insipid. I mean truly couldn't give a stuff insipid.

I'd love a buffer against them, but if we were to lose to Port I can't imagine we'd have done damage in the finals.

I think Barlow needs to come back next week..if Brian Peake played the 1979 Grand Final with a broken arm... ;)
it was the 1977 GF. Bomber Peake played with the cast on his arm. Old East had worked wonders to make the Grand Final and hopes were high. Perth won by a record margin.

They haven't won one since.

Carlton look like the new guys don't know their structures. Too often there is two Carlton players running to block the same space or pressure the same ball carrier.

With Fyfe and Barlow in the team. Hopefully Barlow recovers sufficiently to take his place in the side. Also hope that Suban and DeBoer really show something this week against Brisbane.
DeBoer?

We should have Ballantyne and Ibbotson in. Not bad replacements.

The bottom line is that if we are in any way contending for a flag then we should be beating Port at home the week before finals. If we can't, then we may as well pack it in.

Neither play in the midfield.

Well, we are gunna need two huge performances now to finish top 4...
No we are not. Brisbane could smash us by 100 points and we will still be on equal points with Port going into the last round. Sundays game is now virtually irrelevant is all this means. We should actually be flying 10 Peel players over on the red eye tonight to replace the A graders.
