6 injuries for Carlton on the one game…brutal

Could almost make West Coast and St Kilda a genuine chance.

 

[Taylor]

Their midfield and defense is still capable.

Their midfield and defense is still capable.

But perhaps not their spirit

 

[Footskill]

Wish blues were playing St Kilda this week.

 

[Deanismyhero]

But perhaps not their spirit

 

[Taylor]

Can I suggest the possibility that Fremantle could win enough to finish 5th and Carlton slink into the finals missing their forwardline.

Fremantle then, after a week off, play at home with all of Pearce, Treacy and Darcy ready to go.

Alex Neil Bullen going back home to SA.

God I hope we're asking the question to Kozzie. Where there's smoke.....

Hogan is 50/50 to play this week I believe. Would be a massive out

Could we be that lucky?

I like it.

WCE will go into that game favourites

We could still finish 2nd if results go our way

Just need to win next 2 games

That’s the spirit! It’s not over yet, but if we play tabs over Reidy it soon will be

 

[MadMundy]

Season is still very much in play, just need to get it done and we can still storm into finals with momentum.

 

[mightymouse75]

I'm not sure how we will win either of our next 2 games when we are so flat footed in the last quarter.

 

[Fred Ziffel]

Venting his spleen?

Not according to the experts on “On the couch”.
It is great to see.

Enter the GOAT

 

[Lach72]

Win this week and Carlton get rolled and we’re in the 8. Simple equation

Really good chance that happens.

With no McKay or Curnow, McGovern is going to get midfield numbers.

We need to hold up our end of the bargain

Unfortunately I wouldn’t put it past the eagles to botch this one. A big win away for a team like that often ends in a flat performance the following week.

Also just the fact after weeks of desperately wanting Carlton to win for death ride purposes and them absolutely stinking it up -the week we need them to lose to keep our season alive, I can see them turning up for the first time in months.

 

[Bigger]

Our two most nemetic teams gathering together to decide our fate in a bumblecock scramble to see who is most shitty.

Either of them or us...

I'll say it, from what we've seen of WC at home all year and with the current new coach bounce, they would almost have to actively throw this game against Carlton to lose it. Walsh's back looks absolutely cooked, guy can barely move. Hewett and Kennedy have reverted to the role players they always were, Cerra isnt on the park and the whole midfield is Cripps fighting everyone.

That's not even mentioning the fact that Carlton look half the side missing just one of McKay and Curnow, missing both...

Hopefully the Eagles can pressure up the ground enough to have Blake Acres

kicking long bombs that McGovern can pick off all day.

 

[Purple Suit]

Hopefully the Eagles can pressure up the ground enough to have Blake Acres kicking long bombs that McGovern can pick off all day.

Acres is now in their top 5 best players for this match.
