We are going to need to be switched on next week against GWS.
I suspect we'll have a shed load of changes next week with some big outs, quite a few looked sore at times today, can sometimes get in your head when finals are in the mix.

Harry needed the run, thankfully we gave him the run and he got a confidence booster at the end.

We’d b frigging unlucky to not get it from here.
Saints, swans would have to pull off crazy upsets

We would be unlucky. Like to stitch that part up though officially.

In transit for the game. Could only follow intermittently. My gosh. That was stressful. My mouth was as dry as a cockys cage watching the minutes tick down with under a kick in it.

Congratulations to Vossy, the boys, and the support crew.

So glad for all of us to have got over the 'final hurdle' 😉

We will all sleep well tonight - and we can RELAX now! I was really not looking forward to a week of pressure then another last game of the season storyline.  Been there done that didn’t want a repeat!

Watched the last 2 minutes.
GC had a couple of chances to steal it.
That's our last 2 wins that could have gone either way.

Great effort to hold them off under what looked like high pressure.

Yes, that was harder than last week and that goaless last 18 min when less than a kick in front was bad enough. I was confident though because we were playing well during the game. This week though we struggled from the outset, dragged back 40pts, kicked like pricks when we could have stitched it up in the 3rd qtr, letting them back in, fell 13pts behind again half way through the last, got back in front then made tough work of holding on. I was more worried as we weren't playing well, unlike last week. Could see us finding a "Carlton way"to lose. Fortunately this is a different Carlton and we find ways to win ugly.

A lot of people were telling us two or three weeks back that GC wouldn't be easy, they bettered the Lions, and pushed Adelaide and Sydney away, we looked slow and in holiday mode early, and it nearly cost us the chocolates.

Maybe this was the scare we needed before finals to see how easy it could be to lose a game. Fortunately we didn’t need to lose to get that experience. 4 points is 4 points so take it however you get the result.
This digital world is too much for us insects to understand.

We are definitely playing finals aren't we?
FINAL-LY

Corny. I know, but this long suffering Bluebagger is .... ecstatic, thrilled, relieved, proud, bouyed, grateful, and may have even shed a tear of joy 😊

Go Blues.
Celebrate, recover, and reset.
