Opinion The 'Carlton related stuff that doesn't need it's own thread' thread Part 2

[Aphrodite]

Wasn't sure where to put this. Does anyone know how to get tickets for our GWS game?

The AFL site doesn't have the buy tickets options and neither does ticket master, has it been sold out?

And before anyone asks neither me or Sinjin Jnr are members this year, I thought I was going to have to travel heaps for work hence I didn't get memberships but turns out I've only done two trips to Singapore. Obviously that is going to change next year and Ill be signing us both up.

For anyone considering jumping on the "we don't need Harry" bandwagon (I know there aren't many Blues supporters who believe this, but I have seen some), our current 8 game streak is broken into two blocks of 4 games. 4 with Harry, 4 without. Small sample sizes though.

With Harry:
Average points for = 113
Average points against = 57.5
Average margin = 55.5

Without Harry:
Average points for = 91.5
Average points against = 63.8
Average margin = 27.8

Points for and margin without Harry is inflated due to the big win against WC and the trend is going down. Now, that could be attributed to the higher caliber of opponents, but could also be that opponents have worked out that Charlie can be double/triple teamed without Harry on the field.

To me, the argument is just utterly ridiculous. Harry is 100% a required player who is vital to our structure and chances of winning.
Cats have Cameron and Hawkins. Lions have Daniher and Hipwood. Tigers had Lynch and Riewoldt. You need a good 1-2 punch that can trouble defences and make you unpredictable.
I understand that these people need media content, but there has to be a limit to the stupidity.

If Charlie had to do what he been doing the past 4 weeks all the time he wouldn't physically or mentally see out a season..

Reckon the name of the restaurant is a nod to the 'entertainment' at the old Cliffo?

It is. They mention it in the article.

I'd pick Cottrell ahead of both Fog and Hollands. He runs harder and faster, and has a harder body.

I don't think Cotters and Fog fill the same role in the team though. Agree about Hollands.

Cottrell has been rotated through half forward and the wing. Not exactly the same role as either, but also, roles will change when we get some players back.

Jacobs Ladder, hey? Let's hope not!

1 way baby.
No need to worry.

 

[myblueroan]

Our narrative should be

Marchy touched it, despite having his arm chopped by the Melbourne player ie point or free kick, either way Melbourne lose

A bit long for bumper sticker but ok.

I've seen the movie (classic Tim Robbins). I think worry is an acceptable state to be in.
