Rumour Bluemour Discussion XLI

It seemed to me there'd been a pregame directive to get around each other and celebrate stuff after looking a bit flat in previous weeks. Unfortunately it took a bit longer than expected to implement it.

that makes sense

given how late it was it did feel a little odd

 

[BigFrizz36]

This was way worse than the Richmond game in Round 1 for mine. At least in that game we started great, only to get stung by a blistering, young and speedy team with nothing to lose.

Port were on-par with us as far as season prospects were concerned by Round 16 but our effort was just insipid. I thought for sure Voss was gone after that one, despite the players being 100% at fault for it. Never any excuse for effort.

And yet 7 games later we beat them by more than they beat us in that game. Go figure.

Round 8 1992 beat the filth in their centenary celebration after a four day break.
Millenium match where the fever kicked 12.

Should be 5 and 0 to start the season then.

More likely 0 and 5 !!!

too early to be this negative BH !

Sorry it just comes natural these days even though as a 60 yr. supporter I have seen 8 flags live. While I'm hoping I can witness No. 9 before I turn up my toes, I'm starting to lose my optimism.

I’m all for recalling some of our modern day horror stories. But can we do it somewhere else? Talking Bluemours gives me a lift, but this sort of stuff is plain depressing!

Agree & that’s what this thread is for

Opinion - The 'Carlton related stuff that doesn't need it's own thread' thread Part 3

I'd be keen to understand what changes to resourcing (if any) in the mental health space are being made at our club. We have had a few players (that we know of) having mental health issues so I'd imagine the club would invest more time and money in this area. Perhaps we are well resourced, keen...

I read this and straight away knew you were talking about Motlop.

It almost seems like his aim is to get ball, head down, get tackled, and create a ball up - job done.

Good players get the ball and dish it off to the team’s advantage by keeping the ball moving or kick to a mark. Too often Motlop seems content to brace for the tackle, maybe he’s worried about turning the ball over but it’s a momentum killer.

It’s almost as if he’s asked to do it.

When the season was over......

Season was over for both teams in round 16

7 and 14 is a lot more over than 6 and 8.

We’re of the same vintage BH, probably time for a glass of red and some Neil Diamond vinyl..….

Red, red wine
Stay close to me
Don't let me be alone
It's tearin' apart
My blue, blue heart..

 

[Gokz]

The raised monogram is back!!!

 

[norway blue]

More likely 0 and 5 !!!

I’ll play . 3 2. And building. Go Blues. Will be intense no doubt.

I would love to join you for that glass of red GB, but unfortunately I have given up the drink these days since I had
brush with cancer a little while back, but still partial to listening to the great ND.

I hope it's that too.

 

[ITCHY EYEBALLS]

I hope it's that too.

If we get that draw we’ll be 5-0…..bookmark it

 

[swuzzlebubble]

Yeah, I know it would have looked better using AI. But this is way more fun...

Reminds me of that street art Musk v Zuckerberg in Richmond which I noticed the other day had been painted over.

[Cringle]

Getting beaten by Essendon's VFL team at the MCG during the year of their drug suspensions would have to be one of the worst loses we've ever had. I'd been looking forward to that game for years. I wanted us to smash them off the park, and show them that cheating had consequences. Imagine letting that rabble off the hook? It was disgraceful.

I’m not one to lose my temper.

But I have to embarrassingly admit I put a costly hole through the wall because of this game.

The Rd 1 loss to Richmond was comical if anything.

Easily the most soul destroying loss I've had to witness other than '93 GF.

 

[Uncle Fester]

I had the pleasure of being there...

86 hurt me more than 93. We had semblances of excuses in 93. 86 was plain horrible
