[Metalcrusher]

Yup hopefully Hmac gets a few run of games ...

Also ... I would like Lochie to get at least a 4-6 block of games .....

Ryan Buckland, fantastic article. The sooner this lad gets a mainstream position the better.

I don't always agree with his articles either. He's been off on us a couple of times which he freely admits.

But this is a strong article and significantly better than most of the garbage in the tabloids.

 

[Jeremias]

Credit where it is due, that is a fantastic article. The only thing I can fault is that we don't have a Kane Simpson at the club.

 

[Shambolic]

Go Kane！

 

[DangerousD]

Positives for the weekend.

LOB building on his 1st game.

Harry getting an opportunity to cement his spot.

Bolts taking a stand, dropping blokes (Cuningham) if they don't meet internal standards even if he's better than the gas in the 2s.

 

[Bluella]

LOB signed until 2021.

 

[FlowersByIrene]

I'm actually starting to feel that the North game was an anomoly. We weren't thst bad against the Tiges or the Pies. Who are both seemingly good sides. We were poor against the Suns but not abysmal.

Losing our captain before the game was rough. We will struggle for a few weeks but the return of
- Murph
- Kreuzer
- Kennedy
- Marchbank
- Williamson
- Lang

Should make a big difference when they are ready to go

I loved the article Wickzki, he smashed it! Impressive

O'Brien penning another 2 years is making me happy.
Lang is someone to be positive about too. Still only 22 (I think)

"Carlton's a great place. We know what we are doing."

 

[Neese]

Yep Bolton's presser was great and positive
Sam Rowe take a bow
Cripps hiding his bloodied nose so he didn't have to come off
Dow
Harry's banana goal, so sweet
Phillips was great against NicNat
Blues supporters were loud, so diehard

How quickly we forget

 

[Chookie]

Gotta say even though we lost yesterday, really enjoyed the match. I think there’s something really heartening about seeing young players come in and have a real crack. At the end of the day they are the future of the footy club.

I kind of have a belief that now isn’t the time for chopping and changing the side. I think it is the perfect time for getting games into our first, second and third year players. Obviously Bolton has a lot of faith in the list and I think if we give it time the players will start to repay that faith in spades.

 

[Dadda Dave]

I can't wait until we explode says Bolts .

 

[Neese]

I too am looking forward to explosions

Love this thread, Neese.

I was speaking to a coach from Cockburn juniors on the weekend (pronounced Coburn, near Freo in WA), had the whole team (U/16?)at the G watching us v the Eagles, he had a Carlton hat on. Most were going for us cause their Freo supporters. Asked how his trip was going and what they were up to.

He had asked WC if they could perhaps watch them train and train after them? WC didn't want to know about them(wear the same colours) He then asked Carlton. Carlton opened up the ground to them and let them train and use the facilities, how much of the facilities, he didn't go into, but he said the boys were totally wrapped.

 

[LordLucifer]

I'm positive we are going to be a super-power in the AFL once again, its not a case of "if" it's "when".

That's brilliant to hear. Good work whoever in the club permitted that.
