[Poseidon]

Well, that does suck quite a fair bit.

[bojangler]

Double F#$&!

Our depth will definitely tested.

Bower and Laidler back.

Gotta put Watson in.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Wow, that is awful awful news.

Fortunately, Laidler and Duigan can come back and they are perfect third man in spoilers to help out Thornton and whoever our unfortunate CHB might be for the next month.

Huge huge loss, who will step up?The most important player besides Judd.

 

[Squida25]

._. noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Me thinks it's time for Bower to show us why he should be in our best 22.

 

[AlecDuncan]

Shit. Someone's going to have to stand up. Emu, now is your time.

 

[blueblooded]

be lucky to win a game the next month with him out...****...you reckon he did the damage when he went back on?? If the case sack the doc!!

 

[Blue and Silver]

Well that slams the lid firmly back on our campaign

 

[BlueShift]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Sucks to lose possibly the most important player in the team. Its going to be a tough month for defense. Hopefully Bower, Austin or Thornton step up and give their all, otherwise it could get ugly (especially against collingwood)

 

[BlueTouchPaper]

Was just watching the replay - there was no way it was a 'knock' per se... At least not from the footage...

Do we know what it is?

 

[le dominateur]

Hopefully we can hang onto 5th or 6th spot. Top 4 looks shot now.

 

[serenityNow]

**** !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[pumped]

At the ground look like Scotland flew into his knee when he took that mark after coming off the bench. Bad luck but will test the mettle of the side. Think Henderson may have to stay down back.

From the Carlton FB page

Carlton defender Michael Jamison underwent scans today after suffering a knock to his left knee in Sunday’s Round 14 clash against West Coast. Results show he has a slight tear to his meniscus and he will undergo surgery tomorrow. He is expected to miss around 4 weeks.

Our next four games are

Richmond
Bulldogs
Collingwood
Essendon



J. Roo will be a problem but I think we can still win the midfield battle, and take the points. The Bulldogs are a big unknown, if Hall decides to fire we could be in trouble, then again their form has been so sporadic god only knows how they will play ........... As for Essendon, again they are on a HUGE rollercoaster season, so god only knows what will happen there ......


Collingwood are the BIG problem over this period. It was going to be difficult WITH Jamison playing to stop their tall timber, god only knows how we will handle them without him ..........

In Setant we trust?

Hopefully we can hang onto 5th or 6th spot. Top 4 looks shot now.

FMD.....

Massive loss for us but some perspective please. Huge opportunity for someone to step up. Just like Ben Reid did for the Pies last year.
Great opportunity for the Blues to show some of that backbone most of us believe the team now has.

 

[AndyWalkersGirl]

Horrible news for us and Jamo. He was in AA form.

I hate to say it, but it sounds like our chances at top 4 are very rough now.

 

[rampar]

the WC loss is going to cost us 4th spot.

 

[Beloved]

Well, someone has to stand up now.

You'd think Henderson would drop back to take the second best tall and Thornton would be forced to take the best. The pressure is right on Thornton.

Duigan coming back will be very helpful. If Austin can find some form and O'Keeffe continues to play well, we'll be fine. We can easily defeat Richmond and the Bulldogs without him.

Duigan, Setanta, Aussie, O'Keeffe, Thornton and Waite will be very important.

 

[Sublime]

I won't be quite so quick as other to write off our top 4 chances just yet. It makes things a hell of alot tougher, but i have faith that this loss could galvanize the playing group to pull together and move forward.

 

[BlueTouchPaper]

FMD....

I know...

Haha, I thought I was in 'Doomsday' mode after the Eagles loss - Some of us have gone into overdrive, though.

It does make getting the points out of that Eagles game all the more important, however.

 

[Beloved]

Our next five games are as follows.

Round 15: Carlton vs. Richmond @ MCG
Round 16: Carlton vs. Western Bulldogs @ Etihad Stadium
Round 17: Carlton vs. Collingwood @ MCG
Round 18: Carlton vs. Essendon @ MCG
Round 19: Carlton vs. North Melbourne @ Etihad Stadium

For us to keep a top four spot on our radar, we must win at least three of those five games, most likely all without Jamison. Beating the Tigers, Bulldogs, Bombers and Kangaroos is vital.
