3 x things you learnt this week

[djudd]

3.Gibbs and Murphy will become elite players you would think.

2.Sauce/Aj/Robbo look like they belong in the afl.

1.Eddie/Waitey have improved 20%

 

[phil8579]

1. Jamison is an integral part of our backline (possibly the most important)

2. Kruezer's potential is frightening. At worst could be a good tap ruckman who is good around the ground but at best could be a cross between an excellent ruckman (Hille), quality marking target (Riewoldt) and a serious ground ball player (Goodes).

3. Richard Hadley will be a contender for the Best and Fairest

 

[Blueinblood]

1. Jammo 3rd most important player.
2. Can see how good players actaully are when theyre playing in a good team eg: Waite, Thornton, Houlihan but mostly Eddie Betts
3. Richard Hadley is a gun.

 

[Blue Dimension]

1. Hadley really was a great pickup.

2. Jamison is a massive part of the team. Without him, we struggle to hold up down back.

3. Gibbs is absolutely sensational.

 

[Warsaw]

1. Gibbs early prediction for Charlie
2. Betts to have a 40 goal plus season
3. Half Fit Fev better than no Fev.

 

[thylacine60]

1. 8 is a rover.

2. 10 is a bull.

3. Finals are a lock.

 

[THEBLOODS85]

1. Betts is fitter, thus gone to a new level.

2. Kruezer is going to be something else and the ruck combo with Sauce looks our best bet.

3. Carrazzo, Bentick and Fisher have always had deficiencies that were always going to stop us from being what we want as a team.........only injuries or bad form from blokes in their spots will allow them back.....no longer walk up starts, which is great! DEPTH is building.

 

[THEBLOODS85]

1. 8 is a rover.

2. 10 is a bull.

3. Finals are a lock.

4. is a diamond

5. is gold

2009. The Blues are about to rock!

 

[blues4flag]

I already knew that Gibbs will be an elite.

I now believe Murphy has the potential to be better than a gun and push into that elite category, if he keeps disposing as well as he is and kicking goals to boot.

I love Eddie - when he first debuted, I thought he had limited improvement, but he's a remarkably better player than he was in 07 and has stepped up a notch over 08. Not often do you see a forward pocket leading the Coleman after 2 weeks.

Hadley is a much, much better player than I gave him credit for.

I ****en love watching the boys wins.

 

[jj1978]

1. Waite will be the number 1 defender in the comp by the end of the season.

2. We have seriously matured, physically and mentally (see the guns on Murphy!)

3. We are learning to make the right decisions during games and executing them 95% of the time with good disposal.

 

[HeziBarecket]

1. Houlihan played his best game in living memory, while not sensational and still week, he made no mistakes and applied some offensive pressure, and if he improves, will be our 'barometer'.

2. Eddie Betts is becoming 'Mr. Excitement', his snaps for goal are getting deadlier every week, and am waiting for him to cut sick and kick a big bag, maybe this week against the Bummers will be sensational!

3. Our ruck work is improving. When we lost last year, we were generally killed in the ruck - like against the Bummers - we MUST SMASH them in the ruck this week then we will demolish them!

 

[I LOVE THE CFC]

1. No matter how many mid strengths beers I had on Saturday I still couldn't get pi**ed.

2. Even after not kicking a footy for 6-8 months, I've sill got a beautiful right foot.

3. That my brother in law is so arsey when it comes to getting a great park outside the dome

 

[Stig O'Hara]

1. The coach understands the modern game

2. The coach is very good with tactics.

3. The players understand the coach.

 

[Weiterbot23]

1- Pubs with no foxtel are sh!t

2- Only getting radio stations that are covering the game that is already on tv is sh!t

3- Being on a fishing trip when Carlton is playing is sh!t

*Girlfriend surprizing you with "cirque dis olay" tickets for next saturday night is also sh!t*

 

[Weiterbot23]

1. How much better we are in close this year. Hadley has a lot to say for this.
2. How much more confident Carlton is as a group. We showed glimpses last year, but all coming together now. We are never without belief we can win. Not an easy attribute to instil but players confidence and willingness is showing up in spades
3. My predictions are looking good so far:
a. St.Kilda for Premiers
b. Geelong to go backwards. I thought it would start happening half way through the year but with Ottens out they may start losing a few even earlier
c. North and Sydney to tumble down (O.K. Sydney not there yet, but Saturday night is the best their going to see this year)
d. Carlton top 4

 

[Beloved]

3. Eddie Betts is still under-rated.

2. Gibbsy could be absolutely anything.

1. We are not safe. To win games, we can't take our foot off of the pedal or we'll be in situations similar to three quarter time on Saturday night.

 

[Quazza]

3-Chris Johnson is tougher than i realised

2-The K/Sauce ruck combo is the best we've had in years

1-A Walkers body might never stand up to AFL Football ()

There has to be a way out of. Have an arguement with her on Saturday morning, so she tells YOU that YOU can't go and she will go with 1 of her gf. Then on Sunday morning turn up with flowers and apologise.

" That never works " Kaa Kaa, Kaa Kaa.

 

[TheNumber4]

1. Richard Hadley is very important to our structure. Juddy and I Love him

2. Gibbs has so much time and is so poised. How good could he get??

3a. Murphy, as well as improving his kicking skills, he is tough. Hoopers foot to his face in the last quarter says it all.

3b. Jamo is a massive massive loss I am so sad about this

I'm sure she's a darling and her intentions were sweet as - BUT FFS HAS THE YOUNG LADY EVER HEARD OF A FIXTURE??

 

[Bosun]

1. Or attack on the ball is the most ferocious I have seen it since the glory days.

2. Kruezer is going to be simply awesome.

3. Nearly kissing the boss when on this morning's management call informed me that we have the corporate box for the MCG next Saturday night!!

Hahaha I know your pain!!! Same thing happened to me… I might bump into you there unfortunately (that is if I don’t get the leave pass I’m gunning for from the wife)

 

[PumpyChowdown]

1. Hadley is an in and under gun. Free's up Judd and Murphy to play a bit further outside and damage teams.

2. I didn't realise how good and important Jamo is. Potential 10 year full back.

3. Kruezer is a freak and has some of the cleanest and quickest hands in the league. Truly could become one of the games greats.
