Preview Rnd 8 - Carlton v Collingwood Saturday May 11th 1.45PM @ MCG

[COBALT BLUE]

I strangely have a positive feeling about tomorrow.
I'm just hoping it wasnt the embarrassment of last week that clicks us into action.

Our 22 this week is solid in terms of what we actually have,hope Stocker can continue his growth into AFL because like Walsh we need him sincerely to work off A grade senior statistics thus trying to turn this ship around pointing into the correct direction.
Woods are minus a few of their elites,This will be an interesting game
BOLTON-will be issuing final warnings to perform,he will be hunted soon otherwise also because the young list does have some balance,depth and emerging A graders....really we should be putting a few weak teams away,but not Collingwood,too deep,too strong,too tough,too fit.....if we jump them maybe for a quarter i dont see it for 4 quarters.

5 goals

Go Blues

 

[COBALT BLUE]

Cas rumoured to be playing back so can't mess with the structure see if we can squeeze another tall in up forward maybe Kerr a late in

Dont like Cas as back..........AFL skills no not AFL skills
Good contested mark thats it

done.

 

[HBF]

Reckon we’ll be super competitive today back at the G, these are the games McGovern came to play in think he’ll kick 4. Hoping to see our forwards in a bit of space, one out

nah, give him at least elite contested mark rating. He is damn good at it but yes, that's it. Done!

Gee the days of strictly pay per view are closing in..

It’s a joke not having Carlton vs Collingwood on free to air, pathetic effort.

 

[Ald Gardiner]

We were respectable against them last year when we were complete garbage and pushed them in that JLT game, actually having more scoring shots in the end and losing by 5 points.

Sure it’s going to be really hard but there is no mega force in the AFL this year, it’s a bit 2016 for me.

With a better balanced team and a few of their key mids out, we should push them really hard today. Worth noting that vanilla teams like Doggies ( who we belted) and Cheats have pushed them really hard this year, we should be able to do the same.

A win is improbable but not impossible, so here’s hoping gang.

Game day bitches!

 

[Neese]

Ugh have to go to work in 30 minutes. Not loving our fixture this year.
Go Blues, 100% effort please.

 

[murphster]

Bounce the ball ffs

Yyyou always say that

 

[Bluella]

I could see them trying to use Cas in the Liam Jones 'see ball, punch/mark the s**t out of it' model. Don't know whether it will be remotely successful (Cas has nowhere near the focus and drive to get the ball that Liam does), but I can see why that might be a tactic.

 

[BlueJet]

**** it, i’d Like to see someone go all Magro on Sidebottom.
Payback for Wellingham on Simmo

After last week, I'll settle for having a reasonable crack at the contest.
If our players crack in harder for longer we'll have our chances.

Looks like it’s going to be another typical Melbourne weather day today...Other than that it should be a great day...Carlton v filth on a sat afternoon at the G...

 

[Arr0w]

Yyyou always say that

2 reasons why I say it

1. Get this game started
2. I fear one day it will disappear completely

 

[Cripps Nubake]

We are still just too young. We won’t win this, but would love to see some fight after last week. Go blues!

I live a stone's throw away from Victoria Park. If we win, this will be me walking down Abbotsford in my Navy Blue gear all afternoon

You better believe that i am that childish to do it. I enjoy being childish, from time to time

 

[TBellicious]

[BLUEALLTHRU]

Just needed to be the traditional 2:10 start.

 

[BlueBayou]

I think your all being unfair
The airwaves need more space for one more cooking inanity..........

"My Kitchen Blues" perhaps? It combines cooking, football, and deepening sense of foreboding about both.

1:45 is a bit odd come to think of it...is this to avoid overlap with the following 4:35 game time?
