Robert Heatley Stand / Re: RD 11 - BLUES Lose To Lions (Embarrassment & Dispair)
UMPIRING: Wayne Campbell hang your head in shame! What your boys dished up in the last quarter was an absolute disgrace.

CFC: MM, the rest of the coaching group and the whole playing group can hang their heads in shame! What you dished up was abysmal. You could tell the players didn't have their heads screwed on from the first bounce. Skill errors, turnovers and poor kicking saw us come undone (yet again). Every time we play Brisbane they run rampant through the middle of the ground - you'd think we'd have learnt by now! We had the chance to win but blew it.

Can't find too much positive about the way we played. Wish I could say the end result was a shock but unfortunately it wasn't  >:(

Robert Heatley Stand / Curnow Ranked 2nd Best Tagger in AFL
Interesting article in The Age on taggers. We have 3 on the list with Curnow, Carrazzo and Cachia (there's a "C" theme here!).

Of course Ryan Crowley tops the list (another "C") but Curnow comes in second according to Champion Data.

Carrazzo wasn't far behind despite only 6 games. Cachia was the better offensively.

 Cachia's a rookie isn't he so unless someone is LTI, then not sure he'll see many games this year? Hopefully Carrazzo can stay on the park this season.

Robert Heatley Stand / Re: Blues v Swans semi final - pre game thead

Haha I can't believe they selected Biggsy!

One of my weekly feature articles for One Week At A Time is called the 'Cherry Pops' and gives a summary of everyone selected for their first career games in any given week.

Biggsy got three write ups before he actually got to run onto the field, and was dropped the week after his debut game. So they've selected a guy with a total career of 1 game to play a do-or-die semi final :P.

Shane Biggs first mentioned here:

And again the week after here! I quoted Whitney Houston in his write up that week.

And for the third time, when he finally did make his debut, the Editor lost the article I sent so his write up never went public. If you want a copy, I have it in MS Word format on my laptop haha.

Hope that helps give some sort of clarity to at least one of their random-seeming inclusions :P

Expected Return – IF SELECTED – 38 disposals, 11 tackles, 6 marks, 4 goals

Did Paul Roos write that up?


anyway, Danger game.....
It is a danger game, but they all are, this time of year.
It is a danger because the Swans are NOT at full strength. Far too many times no name nuffers win games against us, some of which play the only good games of their entire careers. never under estimate the one game wonders: they have bitten us.
They weren't at full strength when we played them earlier this year and they rolled us. Gonna be tuff I reckon, they wont play 2 bad games in a row.

The Swans have only won 1 of their last 5 games and that was against the Saints. But yes, they will throw all they have at us and we need to be ready to withstand it.

Hopefully we bring our A attitude and keep that self belief pumping!

Robert Heatley Stand / Re: ELIMINATION FINAL : Ninth Beats Ninthmond (Ha Ha Ha Ending)
Fed up with the commentators saying we shouldn't even be playing finals...like we're dirty or something. Like it though that they're saving their hype for the other teams!

Yes, things fell our way to help us into the finals but once you're there, you make your own luck. We showed that in the second half.

Well done Blues  ^-^
