Robert Heatley Stand / Re: JLT 2018 - Carlton v Hawthorn (Sat 10th Feb)
Im not usually a naysayer but ......

I dont know how much to make of our wins. A win is a win and ill take winning ugly anyday but my biggest concern after 2 jlt games is that if both the aints and dawks had of kicked straight, we would have lost both games comfortably.

Im happy and excited at our list and our continued progress but ive still got a few reservations of how far we  have actually come...... thus far.

Notice Board (Visitors Enter Here) / Re: Future of the footy forum
I'm not a regular poster but I like fellow blues supporters differing opinions. I like hearing the views of a few of the old heads in here.
Do I like  all the threads in here?? No. But that's ok. This site is great cos theres something for everyone.
Please don't shut it down. Crashz phantom drafts, sheiks sacked backed and cracked threads to name a few, are my faves.
I've been a member here through the darkest period of our club and want to be part of it right now and for years to come as we're coming good !!

Robert Heatley Stand / Re: Rd 15: Post Game Passion: Carlton vs Adelaide
I've been a member of this forum for a while now and we have been absolute poo for the bulk of that time.
I cant believe I am reading stuff on here about hoping BB knows how to play an attacking game style and all the negativety.....


Some people are so bloody hard to please .
Im loving that our team is playing like a TEAM. I'm wrapped that we've gone from hoping and wishing for a consistent effort to knowing my team will give a consistant effort every week. I'm also ecstatic that I get to see our babies, grow before my own eyes because I know that they're being taught and understanding how to play the game the right way.

Fair dinkum unbelievable some of you.

I'm all for free speech and differing opinions btw, but considering the changeover of our playing list, changeover of coaching staff,  how much better do you really expect us to be ??

I'm wrapped with our progress  and back BB 1000%.

Just sayin......

I should add I think it's time for Harry Mc to be given an extended run in the 1s.....some blokes just produce when given the opportunity at the elite level.

And it takes a lot of the heat off Levi...

David Cuningham is one who seems to relish the big stage albeit he needs to find the pill more....

Zac Fisher is one who needs time back in the 2s.

Disagree on Fisher. His pressure is outstanding. A couple of times he ran past Kreuz or Caz after they marked out on the wings but they ignored him and didnt dish off a handball. The kid has got "it" and doesnt look as tired as some other newbies imo.

5 pages and no word on Jack Silvagni. Is he a bit of a protected species??  Didn't see the game at all but others seem to be potted before Jack.

Maybe you should watch the game before making STUPID comments.

For a kid, he goes as hard as anyone. Chases, tackles harasses as good as anyone in our team.
As a fwd, struggles with the poor delivery to him.....as do all our other forwards.

Rance is there equivalent to our Doc and Simmo. They'll  put Grimmes on Caz and use Rance as spare man to intercept incoming balls. We need someone to mind Rance. Push him off his run.

Robert Heatley Stand / Re: Round 10 Green Shoot of the Week
I thought that when we were 43 pts down.... it was C Curnow who stood up and single handedly started the fightback.
Is getting better week by week. In a game where our senior players will be all the rage with regards to the votes..... it was C Curnow who imo stopped the rot and started the ball rolling in our favour.
