top 4 a real possibility...

[Alpha1]

I still want to beat them next week. This will only make it harder for us, I wouldn't be surprised if we get done next week, story of our season.

 

[Audrey_Horne]

At least it won't be a must win game -- we will still be a game ahead of them. At this point we need to keep a 2 game advantage over anyone behind us on the ladder.

 

[Audrey_Horne]

I don't think you've thought through the maths very well. Your judgement is clouded by the "if they lose, they'll smash us" mentality. What if they don't? What if they win today and come out and smash us anyway?

Port getting belted by Freo

They sure are getting belted by the Shockers

Half time:-
Shockers 73
Port 28

Oh geez ...

Next week they'll probably come out and put in an real committed effort against us ...

They are the most frustrating team in the league to tip for, shithouse one week, brilliant the next.

I can't figure that port mob, which one will show up next week ???

A real Jekell and Hyde squad.

 

[Mike_blues]

shouldnt matter if port get smashed or win, we need to turn up to play and we'll get the win
we have a very good recent record against them

 

[jj1978]

I think playing Port will not be too bad.... Freo are displaying a great way to play them... plus coming back from playing Perth with 2 days less rest than us should even things up a bit for us!

 

[blues4flag]

They've lost one at home and won one away, I believe.

Come next week it'll be two losses at home.

 

[celtic_pride]

Hopefully their spirits will be broken after today's pathetic effort, and they will have put the cue in the rack next week ...

 

[blues4flag]

If it was gonna break it'd have broken ages ago. Unfortunately just another routine insipid away performance.

They'll put up a fight next week but we should go in deserving favourites.

I'm with you Mike

 

[Alpha1]

Well knowing the Blues, I am guessing they think they beat Geelong and watch them not turn up next week. It has happened all year and watch it happen next week. I am hoping that we do win, the more we win the more the chances of us getting that double chance.

 

[BlueBelle]

Port are rubbish and have played like rubbish today.

Shame on us if we don't beat them next week.

 

[gbatman]

if we belt Port (after their game V Freo it looks highly possible), then belt Melbourne...

Shame on us if we don't beat them next week.

This x2

LOL at some of the Bummer fans in bay13 thinking that we're gonna drop this game on purpose so we don't have a chance of letting them make 8th and us 5th. They think we're gonna tank in fear like they did back in 2001.

I don't know what's with all the insecurity about your own team? Seriously, If we can knock off the Dogs, Pies, Lions twice and the Cats who were not nearly as depleted as everyone says than why the F*** are we no chance? Hello we knocked them off at AAMI last year, we've improved a lot and they're still pretty average. Let's show some confidence in our team and back them to get the win and guaranDAMNtee finals.

Not trolling but just reading through the thread as I believe Carlton will finish 4th...but seriously think before you post!!!

 

[DamianBis]

Um Dezi. we beat lions twice this year and Pies once.

Maybe you should listen to your own advice.

 

[Team Mo']

Facepalm.

[thylacine60]

Mo-Man, where'd you get that crazy tan?

That's OK. I'll accept this, it's typical from Pies supporters to not understand how to read properly.

 

[Dramoth]

Very happy if we finish 5th or 6th which would mean a home final, the odds are stacked against Carlton to finish in the top 4 ...

Here you are... buy yourself a backbone and stop being so damned pessimistic about our chances...

repeat after me... we will make the top 4... we will finish off the season with a massive bang instead of the whimper that we were starting to get so used to...
