And that game was so important hey MOTHER F U C K E R?
Put your money where your mouth is. $500 says we beat you twice this year. Get some balls, or are you on the dole?

TD is no excues. The fact is that what happened is what has been happening for years now. The players get ahead of themselves when they play a rabble side, and go in thinking all thay have to do is show up and theyll win. Carlton didnt beat Melbourne, Melbourne beat themselves with their mindset. We are far superior to your disgraceful outfit, 9 mill in debt, captain wants to kill his own brother, pick a dud at #2, continuesly on the bottom. Go over our past 10 years and youll see that this is a bad habit we have. We lose the games were expected to win easily.
Fact parrot, do some research and youll see that this is true.

You post like your side has achieved success over the last 5-10 years. Gee you are easily pleased.
BTW - If you want a dud draft pick, look no further than Sylvia. He makes Walker look like Chris Judd.

Stopped reading there.

See, thats what lets you down. Calling players like Carazzo duds just shows how little you know.

Carazzo is 5 times the player Sylvia and Moloney are.
I'm really hoping Carazzo improves this year. Good signs last night. He always finds the ball, has fantastic intensity, but the accuracy of his kicking let him down badly on occasions last year, and made Denis reluctant to use him in the midfield. His kicking technique is actually pretty good, and has fantastic distance, but had a bad case of the goal-kicking yips last year. Sometimes he kicks freak goals, but often he missed absolute sitters which cost us badly. I think he's slowly working that problem out, and his development as a midfielder seems to have advanced a fair bit under the guidance on Ratten and Bradley. He's got a great opportunity to take the next step this year, with all the opposition attention on Stevens, Murph Gibbs and Simmo. :)

And that just shows how much you know. Moloney? His first season with us he finished top5 in the B&F. Then got OP. Showed 10 x more than Carazzo has. I'll give you Sylvia though.

Yeah good post. His kicking will improve as his confidence grows. The ability he has to find the footy is freakish. Smart footballer too.

Moloney is terrible.
Moloney's main problem is that he's terrible under pressure with a tendency to sook with things get tough according to many Cats fans, and arguably cost the Cats a finals series a few years back. That effort stuck in Thompson's mind during trade week. Moloney is still ordinary, and still terrible under pressure. The Cats got that one right. :)

One thing I'm guessing after last year is that Melbourne won't be taking us lightly no matter our ladder position!
When you're a melbourne, or stkilda, you don't take any team lightly you're so used to getting thumped by them. Decade upon decade of failure has stacked up to become total paranoia for dees and saints fans.

Hi Andrew is that you?:rolleyes:

Carazzo is garbage. His footskills are under 11's like.

A horrible horrible poor excuse for a footballer. Carlton have too many of these lemons on their list.

He'll be soon awarded life membership at Northen Bullants.

Here's another scoreline:

Crows 14.16 (100) V Melbourne 6.8 (44).

A 56-point shellacking. Nasty. :)
I find it interesting that all 4 of last years rabbles (except for Essendon) are in the NAB Cup Semis.

While all of 2007's contenders like WCE, Adel, Sydney, Freo, Melbourne, Saints and Dogs have round 1 firmly on their mind.

NAB Cup = Showcase time for pathetic clubs like Carlton.

The Dees haven't been a "contender" for over 43 years now. Just lacking "star quality" on their list. Predicting you'll slip out of the 8 in 2007, back to baseline mediocrity. Are you in favour of the Hawks merge like RJ? When it happens, it will be dominated by Hawks players at this stage, although the choice between Zac Dawson and Carroll for the Melbourne-Hawks FB will be a close call. :)

But it was a Merger, never a take-over. So did you support the merge i.e. did you want to sell out on your club like RJ? :)
No I wouldn't have

Having said that I don't believe either myself or RJ were old enough to vote as we both wouldn't have been 18 in 1996.
