Preview Round 1: Carlton V Richmond - 28/03/2013 7:40pm @ MCG

[RichoLedio]

I already told work I'm leaving early next Thursday night.

Unfortunately I start at the same time as the game

 

[AstroboyUK]

OK I'm going to have a bachar at this lineup thing.

FB: Morris Chaplin Griffiths
HB: Houli Rance Petterd
C: Grigg Tuck Conca
HF: Newman Vickery Martin
FF: McGuane Riewoldt Edwards
Foll: Maric Deledio Cotchin
I/C: Jackson King Ellis Sub: White
Emergency: Nahas, Vlaustin, Dea

and some mentions


HF: Pre-Season is over, time for Tyrone to shine. He's looked a bit reluctant at times in the pre-season (probably looking after the shoulder), but it's go time now. I think he'll rise to the occasion. Martin and Newy should have carte blanche to head for home whenever they're goal side of the centre square.

FF: Sorry 80% of you but Muscles is in until someone pushes him out of the team. that is yet to happen. When Grimes makes it back into the side I would love to see Griffiths in this position. Jack is Jack and Shane Edwards is getting better and better. Would like to see him in the midfield rotation anytime one of the Cotchin/Martin/Deledio is resting up forward.

.

great post. but ...

...but you've set up the worlds slowest forward line with very little ability to apply defensive pressure which is absolutely fundamental to the game plan.
King and Nahas will not be left out... no way. No matter what all the pudents here say they will be playing and starting on the field

Flying over next Thursday morning. Bringing 5 kiwis with me to see their first taste of AFL, and try and understand why I do what I do. Hopefully the night will be sweet as aye bro.

Not wrong. Ponsford stand = City End. Great Southern is at the PRE.

Dumb post. If there's one other team who's supporters stuck by their club during a shit period its Carlton and those years were its worst ever.

What ends the cheer squad guys? About to book my tickets and dont want to sit anywhere near the blues.

Check what board you're on. If one fan base has the right to tell others they disappear when their team's struggling, it's us. Even if it isn't true

 

[Barnzy]

Have a bad feeling about Thursday. Think they might have too much depth across the park and not so sure our midfield bats as deep. Feels like the lack of Foley has been brushed aside but IMO its huge. Not so much Grimes because without Waite we should be able to cover their talls.

Guys like Vlas and Conca will need to have good games and the bottom few players in our 22 are still likely to let you down more than not if they play - Jackson, White, etc.

30 years of failure and 60,000 members not enough for you? We're by far the most loyal supporters

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

Ahhhemmm...the pea hearted Carltoon supporters may turn up in inclement weather...but the Carltoon Team?!?!...maybe not...
Feb 5th 2010...Carltoon fail to turn up for a practise match due to wet weather...Ratten apologizes to the fans...

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

Maybe the Carltoon players and the Carltoon supporters shared the same questionable blood transfusion from a McCann's frozen 'pea' packet......
