Robert Heatley Stand / Re: AFL Rd 5 2025 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs West Coast

I hope I am wrong - TDK has taken the foot off the pedal - maybe his destiny is already sealed.

Pedal to the metal for a quarter and a bit only to fade away - familiar story for the last few seasons.

No reason for DTK to sign on now!

Been a close watcher of the Blues for 55 years - that was a filthy display last night.

We will rebound but not a finals contender this year - my fears are starting manifest (mid-range team only)

l recently asked a first grade footballer if a player missing set shots for goal deflated a team .
Unfortunately the answer was a categoric yes.

first time post - walked this path many times over the years (first Blues memory 68 grand final)
as much as it sounds painful - there is an old saying a half fit so and so is better than a fully fit so and so.
l have seen this happen many times with all AFL clubs only to pay the consequences.
there are some banged up boys right now who will be going into next week game not fully fit - anyone had a broken nose or a dislocated shoulder (l can see Zorko lining up Patty Cripps nose) l don't think a jab will rectify .
should the board go completely left field and rest them and play a fully fit team - or run the risk of a 60 point lose next week.
l don't know.
