Re: AFL Rd 3: Pre Game Prognostications: Carlton vs Geelong in Geelong

GWS were shizen for sure. I thought the way the doggies played was very watchable. Wish we played a bit more like they did last night.
And as for my prediction against the cats - we will win! Ever the optimist, I believe our turnaround is just around the corner. We are fit enough for sure, and we have enough talent around the ground, there's just something lacking between then ears. IF we play with the same intensity as the doggies did, we'll give the cats a real shake. Bring the intensity lads, that's really all I'm asking.
I think everyone would agree, regardless of things like honorable losses sucking balls, and winning being everything, if both teams turn up and play their hearts out, and we lose by a kick or two, i'd be happy enough. If the cats are down, and we slack off for a quarter or two and lose by a kick i'll be demoralised, as per usual. if we get absolutely smacked it will be very, very worrying indeed, considering how much emphasis we should be placing on competing hard this week.
Not a hope in hell.
