2010 predictions

[Ytoojae]

You're saying Hawks d. St Kilda in the first week? If not, Hawks Vs Dogs in prelim.

 

[BlueGibbs2011]

Very hard to gauge Carlton's performance in 2010 given the change to our fwd line.

I'd put money on us finishing 1st or 2nd in the league for inside 50s in 2010. Whether that equates to wins or us sucking lemons is too hard to guess right now.

 

[wavefall21]

There are so many unknowns going into next year, I think the biggest unknown is how we will fair without Fev for the year and Judd for the first 3 rnds, our start to the year is very tough but our run becomes reasonably good, I think it's exciting that we are more unpredictable, I'll be absolutely shattered if we don't make finals cos it will go to show that we Fev was the main reason for getting us there last year, I hope it's not the case, if we can be more consisntent i'd be very surprised if we dont sneak into the finals, there are a lot of good sides ahead of us so we need to take advantage of all winnable games

 

[Shambolic]

Unless Ratten is spectacularly suiccessful I think we'll be around 7th - 8th - 9th again. You cant just lose your main weapon and work around it so easily; I think there will be a number of games against mediocre teams that we'll just struggle to kick a goal. We'll control it in midfield but just fail to convert.

I think it will be a frustrating year but we'll still pull some amazing wins.

I still have very high hopes for this list and see us being Top 4 in 2-3 years time but I cant see us kicking enough goals in 2010.

blues will struggle
key players to get injuries and with no key forward, no goals
missing out on the top 8

Piss off back to your own board. No one gives a stuff about where YOU think WE'LL finish.

Unfortunately for the cubs its a bad year to finish last.

 

[Mokum]

who is nosterandanus?
LOL!!!
I reckon we will finish top 4 in 2010
Our greatest strength was our biggest weakness with Fevola
Opposition coaches would have been like " well, we cant stop Juddy or their midfield, lets just tripple and 4 man Fev, that should do it" Not any more scumbags, Its gonna be an avalanche of targets hit inside 50 lol!!!!
We will be nigh on unstoppable, wait and see....
All the forwards will have to do is time their leads properly and kick goals from set shots and we will kreuze(sic) to victory

 

[serenityNow]

I love peoples optimism, but lets be realistic...........Henderson aint going to kick 50 goals next year and its nonsense to suggest so.

For us to be any chance of furthering this year's result.........we need someone to kick 40-50 goals Waite? Betts?

We will need a a few to join Murph with around 30-40 goals for the year.

Must stay injury free up forward with what little we have.

McLean will go alright and will bring an in and under toughness to our midfield that we desperately need. Will also look out for Juddy and allow him to run outside more.

Murph,Gibbs,Kreuez,Hammer etc will all be bigger,stronger and better (barring injuries) next year.

Backline is there........we just need them to gain more time together to gel and understand eachothers strengths and weakness's. Will be much better as season goes on.
Rucks look great, in time will be one of best set ups in comp.

Your opinion does NOT count on this board.

Now crawl back to your "Yellow & Bleak" board where you belong & don't let the door slam you on your way out

In your dreams, from a club who finished 15th last year..you;ll struggle in 2010 there;s no doubt..cannot see much improvement for you at all..you are a pathetic breed, truly hopeless.

On a brighter note, I think we will surprise most...a big surpise packet, oozing too much talent to be otherwise.

I think a tie for B & F with Gibbs and Judd.

We'll finish around 5th

Vice Captain - Simpson

Most goals J. Waite maybe 53 next M Kreuzer with 35

The big improver will be Yarran ]

And Gibbs a smokey for the brownlow and Lucas the rising star

hahaha, you yellow and black feral!
first of all, at least we've got key players unlike that pathetic excuse of a team you call the tigers, and second of all, go back to your own board you flog.
TROLL!!

Even if we finish 15th that's a position higher than your lousy mob.

Even if we finish 15th that's a position higher than your lousy mob.

[Mandragoran]

Kruzer to become a permanent forward (mainly CHF). Can anyone else see how suited he is to this position? He has the height, fitness, speed, jukes and kicking ability to excel in a Riewoldt type role. In fact if you compare the two the only real differences are that Kruzer has a thicker frame and has better hands than Riewoldt did at his age, while Riewoldt is more agile, more experienced and possibly fitter. (By the way I am not trying to claim Kruzer is anywhere near as good as Riewoldt………Yet )

Hammer, Sauce and 206 to fight out the 2 ruck spots. Pretty sure all these three will get game time this season, the club will want to expose Hammer and Sauce as much as possible to the AFL as they will want there market values as high as possible come trade time this year, obviously not at the expense of team success, but I don’t think we lose anything by having any of these boys in over each other.

Carrots to show his value is not just in his passion, commitment, and effort….. but also his talent. This bloke shrugs a tackle better than anyone at the club. Judd breaks tackles and I am sure Brock will do the same this year but Carrots somehow shrugs his hips whenever he is grabbed and the tackle slides off. On top of that he is exceptional below his knees and with his hands, and is the only player I have seen successfully stop attacking back flankers, and hurt them with goals.

 

[blblues]

Carrots problem has never been finding the footy or running with it, his problem is his kicking under pressure. Until this problem is fixed he will always be the same type of player.
