FO - taking Tex out of the side improves them!

While I think Hird should be at least sanctioned - I so want this to happen :)

No one- I hate all teams that aren't Carlton! (just to varying degrees)

And lose badly it is. Very disappointing effort today

Crap half of footy. Good thing is that the Saints weren't good enough to put us away. Lift our game and we still should win - keep playing like that and we will lose badly

Would love to see us smash them- but still reckon it will be relatively close. Us by 24

was a handy player Diesel..

Not impressed with the eagles at all this year - more than beatable in Melbourne. If our good form holds 50/50 is about right

Nope- will make up numbers in the finals this year and probably next as well, before beginning their decent back to the lower half of the ladder

'Chicks not doing himself any credit with that interview - comes across as if he's had one too many knocks to the head during his playing days. Media should really stay clear of him....

Have only just seen the final score after we had a power outage at half time :( Was enjoying the game up to that point

So far so good :) Hope the hawks can go on with it and bring up a triple figure win

But when did it become a national competition? 1982? 1987? 1990? 1995? 1998? 2011? 2012? The Tasmanians amongst us might argue it still isn't "national"comp. Fact is it is the same comp that has evolved, and the premiership in each expansion year is no less an achievement than it was previously.

Nah - these may be important to each clubs history, but was a different competition

All these guys will be leaders at the club for hopefully the next 10 years or so - but hopefully Doc gets the gig As others have mentioned it's great to finally have a number of great choices for captain instead of worrying who would be good enough for the role

N Not really- who's to blame for us having the old list, or not trying to rebuild through the draft instead of recycling players, or having just about the crappiest training facilities in the AFL at one point? Fact is, like Brisbane we held stagnated after a period of success because of our...

Agree with all you have said, but the same could also be said about us leading up to when things turned to shit 15 years ago. Most teams that end up bottom get there as a direct result of stuffing up majorly in some way.

Not if he's just avoiding the contact, or if he's playing for the free when the contact is made. Not a good look either way.

It was wasn't it! They should seriously consider giving their coach another contract extension

Love how one of their posters seems to think making finals three years in a row (without winning one) amounts to some measure of success lol

Really looking forward to this game. We should win given all of their outs, although without these would probably tip the saints. Will be very interesting see the players approach the game given Carlton's tendency in the not so distant past to regularly lose games they should have won...

Would love to see us make it for both the youngsters and the older guys nearing the end, but don't think we'll quite get there unfortunately... Just cant see one of the teams already in the 8 dropping out, and if one does there will still be strong competition with Port to get in.

Just gotta realise the media just do what the media does - kick you when you're down and sing you're praises when your doing ok. Nothing to get worked up about - Except when it comes to Robbo - cant stand that twat

Gives me the shivers just thinking about it (THE HORROR!)

...would have finished bottom for those years regardless of the penalties, not because of them. I don't think Essendon should stripped of any more draft picks as some would like, but nor should they get number 1... Still, its just ****ing into the wind - the AFL wont do any more so time to move on

And there's the great irony of Malthouse's time at Carlton - only because he failed so miserably in the end that the club had to have the necessary reset. But he deserves no credit for this - yes he did weed out a few talented, non performing players, but as head coach it was his job to instil...

Y Just spin and damage control! Never take anything he says on the matter seriously

All I can say is that it feels great to be able to enjoy the football again after the crap served up in the last couple of years under Malthouse. At my most pessimistic last year, before he was given the flick, I commented to a Blues supporting mate that the club is broken and I didn't think I...

Definitely- very healthy signs for the club that there is some competition and the players have to work their butt off to get into the seniors
