Robert Heatley Stand / Re: ELIMINATION FINAL : Blues V Tigers (Pre-Game Patter)

So whereabouts have people gotten their seats for the game (as in bay number)? Reason I ask is that I've got a couple of mates thinking of getting some eBay tickets, but don't wanna be purchasing seats right in the middle of a Richmond bay stronghold, so if I can gauge where Carlton members have been allocated seats, it'll help me be able to pinpoint a bay where there's at least a few Carlton supporters for them to be sitting near.....thanks people!!!

Apparently more tickets will be made available on Thursday from unused club allocations. Yesterday 12,000 Carlton members purchased tickets compared to 26,000 Richmond fans. They will outnumber us 2-1 on Sunday.
Bring it!

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.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry, the first three quarters were embarrassing, the last quarter was inspiring.

A number of players showed that they clearly are not up to it and will certainly face the axe at the end of the year whilst a couple of them may have done enough to save their career at the Blues.

Spot on. Amazing last qtr... but if we are to win a flag then there must be a reasonable amount of change.

So out of all the crap in season 2013 comes opportunity. I had given away this season, after the loss the the dogs. However we are now in a position to take the opportunity handed to us and run with it.

I can think of no greater opportunity for the club to draw a line in the sand, put their heads down and get the job done in Adelaide. We are being tipped against left right and centre, we have injuries and poor form.

STAND UP, it begins here.

Bell was doing a fair bit of grunt work in terms of  spoiling and ball winning in the clinches, which I think we benefited from. He just needs to improve his disposal which lets him down atm. I'm confident that will get some focus as he's very useful to have around the clearances and contested ball situations.

Also let's the opposition know he's there - ask Cotchin.


Cookie...Glad to see you could see what I saw with Tom Bell....his big body is a must for the senior team.

No-one is suggesting he doesn't throw some weight around (hell, its the one facet of his game that I really like) but you have to question his intellect when he tried to clean-up Cotchin and came off second best.


His "intellect" was spot on. He was laying a block for the player who was competing with Cotchin for the ball. As well as us winning the ball he sent a message. Perfect if you ask me and something that not many in the current side would do.

Kicked away in the last to make it a big win. GC are still developing, and will be a little "one step forward one step back" for a while. 40 scoring shots to 22 is pretty food going though.

Well done lads.

Considering we had about 6 or 7 non contributors that's not a bad result.
Waite in for Rowe.

Agree but something else will need to change. Who is the relief ruckman once Rowe is gone?

Play Casboult forward. He can either play or not. We need to find out.

Kruezer can ruck most of the game anyway. The whole football world is watching us right now - do wave the white flag or take no prisoners?

Time for us to say Never again do we lose to this mob and have some pride.

This ^^^^

Casboult planted in the square. Watson to CHB. Henderson & Walker the the leading fwds Menzel and Betts Fwd. Yaz and Army of half back. Jeffy / Simpson on the wings. Change it up, run them off their feet.
