Have we strayed off topic????

Isn't mandatory to attack or defend Malthouse and Ratten in every thread?

There doesn't seem to be a lot of interest in the game and the line ups though  ::)

You wanna hear us talk about how we are going to get thumped by a side who hasn't won in 2 months?

How about some misplaced optimism Kruddler  ;)

Not without a chance in this one....whether we want it is another question.
Our second quarter form against North would stack up OK against this mob.
If we can sustain it for more than a quarter we might push them.

I tend to agree Lods.

Collingwood is hardly travelling well and their forward line is undermanned. IF we play to our best for four quarters we could get over the line.

With the possible exception of Smith and Whiley, we probably have our best available players on the park.

Scary.
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.

Gibbs and Yarran at their best are probably in our top three players though.
Ignorance is bliss.

ONWARDS AND UPWARDS!

If we bring the form we were showing until the Freo game, then we are better than a chance. How does the cliché go? ...I'm cautiously optimistic  ;D
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

Wake up everyone. Our mids will be drilled a new one. The Pies can't continue losing and we have a bad record against them of late. Especially with no Judd, Gibbs or Thomas. I will be happy with a loss of less than 7 goals. That is just my view.

Get with the program Mantis, we're trying to create an atmosphere of cautious optimism  ;)

Sorry DJC. I thought we were all tripping on a bad acid trip and were smelling sounds, hearing colours and actually able to watch flowers grow in real time literally. Not that I know anything about speed, angel dust, Mary J, or anything else. What was the original subject matter again by the way.

Yes, yes we will win by 2 goals in a close one. Betts will bag 3 goals, Waite will kick 2, Garlett will pitch in for a couple and Robinson will kick 2 himself. Judd will kick one, Thomas the same, Kreuzer also and Murphy, Gibbs, and Levi, Wood, McLean, Carrazzo, Armfield and Walker will kick a goal each. What year are we in exactly again. My watch has stopped functioning ? ;D

Took one last week, and most weeks. Averaging 1.4 a game and is =27th in the league for total contested marks, despite playing only 14 games. His 1.4 average ranks him =22nd in the league which puts him top 3%.

...and he HAS been playing badly.

Imagine how good he'll be when he improves and gets back to his best!
THAT's why you try and keep him.

I strongly doubt that statistic, 27th in the League. If in fact it's true, then for the amount of times he's in a contested marking opportunity he should be 5th. on the list.

The fact is, he has cement hands when in a contested marking situation, as well as not showing enough determination to grab the ball in a contested situation.

Levi's playing his first game as a Dad :D
Wife Hayley gave birth to little Lonnie last night.
Have to get to 100 games now Levi.

(Hopefully he got a bit of sleep) ;)
