How far will we get?

[VicO]

Just a simple poll to see how far you guys realistically think Carlton will go in our first finals campaign in many a year.

All depends on where we finish on the ladder as to our draw but I think we have a good chance to win our first 2 finals. Week 1 v hawks, dons or lions. Week 2 v dogs, pies, cats or saints (as we have beaten 3 of them and ran saints to 9 points). Anything could happen come final time.

I honestly view our chances of making a Prelim the same as losing in week 1. Anything can happen in finals, and we're likely to serve up anything in finals - given our position, maybe that's not a bad thing.

All I know is that **** I can't wait until next week!

If we don't win one final i'll be disappointed. Before the start of 09 i said we need to make the 8 and win a final. That's a pass mark.

I still stick to that.

 

[Malifice]

We'll either go all the way, or get knocked out week 1.

I voted for the former.

The power of positive thinking and all that.

Plus I've been having dreams...

Should never have read that stupid book 'The Secret' .

I think we are in as good a form as anyone in the top 8, and could cause some upsets.

I just think if we made a prelim we might actually start to think about a GF and that might undo some of the younger brigade.

I actually don't want us to make the GF. I don't think we are mature enough to handle the day, and especially to turn it around if we lose. If flags are won in the backline, without Waite and Jamison, at some point I think we will be found out.

A belting on GF day could do a lot of harm to our group......see Port and their "promising" youngsters..........many I believe have been scarred by their experience on GF day and haven't done a thing since.

Would like to win 1.......then maybe 2, and play 2 or 3 finals. Get the experience, get the taste and take that thirst into pre-season.

Currently on form we are in the top 2 in the AFL..... so it may be a Carlton vs Collingwood grand final - how sweet it would be.......

 

[Sin City]

Could not think of anything better!

I'll let you know in 24 hours. Reckon we'll end up playing Brisbane in Melbourne.

 

[BlueSnake]

Although I had a dream the other week where we were playing St Kilda in the GF (though I never saw the outcome, all I know is we were ahead at some point late-ish in the match), my head tells me the second week, so I'll just go with that for now.

I'd be really happy with just that at this stage.
