Firstly, unpredictability comes from multiple avenues to goal, not via one or two key forwards.
Secondly, when the Key Forward is being double and triple teamed, where the feck are the opponents (ie our blokes) of the ones doing the double a triple teaming ? Got to be smarter around the fwd line with the loose blokes picking up crumbs or getting into position to receive goal side. What the Hawthorn, Sydney and Geelong poachers do it.

I often wonder about that myself.

I've tipped us to get the job done. Hopefully like Melbourne, we'll succeed against the odds.

x2..Good test for BB. was outcoached last time and this is a chance for him , Neil Craig, Barker etc to rejig how we play and set-up better than we did the first time we played the Saints...Philips should help against Hickey and we cant let Steven run onto the ball in open ground like we did last time...

Blues by 18 points.....1AW to kick 2-3 and go out a winner...

We've barely played them at the MCG since 1998. Almost always at Etihad, and not many wins there either. It is about time we changed that piece of stupidity.
Live Long and Prosper!

I reckon we will be a different proposition for StK at the G. I'm confident.

Now that would be fitting for our Carlton-blooded champ, the little man up front, and a chance for the club to turn these unsavory trends around.

Unsavoury recent trends? Our last 20 games against the Aints were as follows:
LLLLLLLLLWWLLLLWWWWL
The last 20 against Haw is unsavoury
LLLLWWLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

Never seen the Krakouer mark, so looked it up in you tube.  Its ok, but seriously, how did 1AW not win mark of the year???

Kind of like Woewoedin winning the brownlow in front of Kouta.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

I'm sitting on a sand dune in far north west Victoria and will probably only get occasional scores.  I would appreciate plenty of in game commentary - particularly if we're doing OK  :)

Says it all when you never see krakours Mark replayed whereas walkers is used to highlight the excitement of AFL - they really should rectify it and give it Mark of the decade or similar
