Such a stupid thread. Carlton lose to arguably the BEST team in the league, the 5-0 (NAB Cup) and 7-1 Adelaide Crows, and all of a sudden they could lose to the WORST team in the league? Utterly ridiculous.

5 weeks ago before Carlton vs Essendon I pottered over to the Carlton board to see what their fans were posting. Not one of them even entertained the idea of losing and nearly all were more than confident of a comfortable win.
I'm now sitting here reading fairly articulate and reasonable posts that suggest they could lose to Melbourne. From their own fans. (I'm talking about audas).
Remarkable.
Mate are you serious? Melbourne can start now and wouldn't win. You don't know much about football

Fact is based on historic events. This game is yet to happen so you are purely speculating (regardless of the chances.)
I'd love to see it but it won't happen. Carlton won't lose and even if they did it wouldn't be the coach's fault. There would a few players under a bit of pressure though. The coach will be assessed at the end of the year and if Carlton don't finish top 4 he will be under the pump. I actually think they will miss the top 4 but Rattan will still get coach them in 2013. That will be a pressure cooker!
You really can't compare the two situations. Richmond is much more competitive than Melbourne. What's your point?
Don't worry blue boys, we will play you into form and you will go on a winning streak.
On track to what?And we will appreciate your generosity in helping us to get our season back on track.
Interesting situation they find themselves in. Some big name injuries, players terribly out of form and a distinct lack of confidence.
I know Melbourne are absolutely horrendous right now but they have been given a smashing in the media (as have Carlton but Melbourne probably more).
Going back to the late 80's/ early 90's IIRC, Carlton lost to the Brisbane Bears at Princess Park when Capper dobbed one from 50 out and Robert Walls was shown the door. If Melbourne somehow pull off an upset this weekend, will the same happen to Ratten?
