No harmonica this week.

I'd love to know what Davies and Wright are thinking right about now.

You'd have to think we'd be favorites against Richmond. 7 in a row would be sensational.

The way it's going we'll be 2 games from 6th after this weekend unless Adelaide can pluck this one right of  the fire. I'll worry about 10th first though.

After Richmond we have 3 tough games in the run home against Hawthorn, Brissie and Freo, the rest against sides around us in the same position. Hawthorn has been ok lately but nothing great, and hoping by the time we get to Freo they may have peaked and gone over the edge. As long as we beat Richmond and go 8-8, I'd like to win 5 from the last 7, giving us 13 wins. Even 4 gives us 12.

But, as we know, this is Carlton, so only focussing on Richmond and best not get too far ahead of myself.

We'll be favourites with the bookies for sure, I hope the players ignore that and any other noise about x in a row and what not. Focus on process and working on whatever isn't working well (which aint much at the minute)
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time
2025-Carlton can win the 2025 AFL Premiership

I'm pretty positive about our recent form but I wrote in the "in game" thread at half time that I wasn't completely happy with the way we were travelling.
It just seemed to lack the intensity of the previous week.
While physical in parts, there just didn't seem to be the same attack on the contest and there were times when they moved the ball too easily.

But two things can be true at once.
We were never really in trouble and had their measure.
Everyone contributed to some extent, and but for some wayward kicking we would have won by a lot more.
