Robert Heatley Stand / Re: ELIMINATION FINAL : Blues V Tigers (Pre-Game Patter)
I am going but in the MCC, yet I am a club member. So my ticket would not be counted amongst the 12,000. These numbers are never a true reflection.

Same here, a lot of Carlton fans will be in the MCC members side of the ground.

Ditto me....there's generally always a good turnout of Carlton supporters in the MCC area.

For everything that has happened this season,our highs and lows and the successes of others, we are on absolutely even terms with with both Richmond and Collingwood and better off than Port (we don't travel, we play a home final and we are playing at our favourite ground!)

We play an opponent who we have defeated 9 of the past 10 meetings, including 3 weeks ago.  They have 3 key players under injury clouds (Newman, Riewold and White), as do we ( Judd, McLean and Scotland)

One feels that the stars might just be slightly alining........

D Day folks.  The 4 ins are all good and should bolster the team from last week that won 80% of the game, but couldn't kick straight.

I just want to have a crack at Richmond next week, just for the heck of it. 

As usual, first 5 minutes will tell whether they are switched on or not.

Win by 13 points.

Murphy is booked in for knee surgery on Monday but will obviously reschedule if we are still playing.  Why do we play injured players and wreck their confidence??

Not fit enough!!

Too many fade out, too often overrun.

You can look mentally soft when you are physically weaker than the opposition. They have no belief in their ability to run out a game.

They need to have the off season mantra of 'fittest and strongest' in preparation for 2014.

Dick always said get the best, now find the best conditioning coach in the business here or OS.

Robert Heatley Stand / Re: R22 Carlton vs CheatsFC Pre Game
OK I personally think that it is 'line in the sand' time.

The line in the sand should be that, from now till the end of the year, forget about the drugs, the injections, the 4 aminos and focus on ourselves and how we are going to beat a team who we despise, who are on the same number of premierships as us and who are spiralling out of control, ready to be buried.

Let them keep their points and let them be humiliated over the next three weeks. Most of their supporters and I dare say their players would love to cop their penalty now, cause they ain't going anywhere this year, but their admin are sitting firm.

Just go out and beat them because they are Essendon and because they are one obstacle standing in the way of us and a hit at the finals.
