Carlton this week.

[DeeZee 6,905]

I'm feeling a bit scared of going to the footy with my son this week as I just can't take coming away feeling depressed again. I probably wont go. Is this wrong?

No Murphy or Carrazzo, and maybe a line in the sand game for us, I'm expecting a better effort than last week...but from what I've seen so far,I just don't trust them.

Im going out on a limb after my prediction to beat sydney went horribly wrong. I think we might lose this one.

Jokes aside, a better effort is needed, time to show we actually are heading in the right direction with a 4 quarter effort. I know its a cliche but i want to see the melbourne players have some pride in the jumper and to try and gain some respect against a side who has consistantly mocked and bullied us.

[Dr. Gonzo 22,782]

If someone lets loose and takes out Mitch Robinson it will all be worth it. Sadly I can't see this happening.

[Demon SeaMan 108]

I can't stand there arrogant, incoherent tripe blues supporters dish up when there going ok... I hope we lift and threaten. Definitely going...sucker 4 punishment

[PaulRB 6,078]

A Carlton mate refers to this game as "the bye"... would so love to knock them off.

Am going, but fully expecting to be belted.

To state the obvious, we need to start strong. I thought against the Swans we were toe to toe for the first 10 min but could only score 2 points while they responded with 2 goals, and our confidence faded to zero. Blues have their own ghosts swirling around them this week and a loss to the Mighty Dees would whip their fans into a frenzy.

Please Footy Gods let it click on Sunday.

My attendance at the game this week will be strongly swayed by the team selected on Thursday night. I am not going to sit at an away game copping it off Carlton supporters if I am not confident the players on the park are giving 100%

[Bingo 254]

I'd love to see full on bruise footy(not bruise free) this weekend! Attack the ball and give it to a team mate in a better position, who then kicks to a leading forward.

[Bring-Back-Powell 13,595]

What are the implications for Neeld and the senior players if we have back to back 100 point losses?

[Vagg 2,422]

Yeah? You mean they expect to collect zero premiership points from the game?!! Love it!

[RalphiusMaximus 6,000]

Play Tapscott on Mitch Robinson. It'll be a learning experience for him and he just might lay the guy out. We already know that we're going to be destroyed by their small forwards, so just accept the loss and hope we don't look as soft as we have in the past against them. I want no more "Bruise Free" comments.

No it is not

Have pity on him to ensure we have a future member think of a reason not to go.

Another 100 point loss and he will be considering the Melbourne Storm

No more than this week.

If however it occurs on 24th June that is another question

[praha 10,547]

I'll be there, but it'll be a 5-10 goal loss, at the least. I can definitely see a game akin to the Hawthorn game: within 7-8 goals the whole game, before a blowout to the 60-70 point range.

...and even worse were it the weekend of 15,16,17 June ! :-)

[Pennant St Dee 11,740]

All I want to see is effort, that is all I ask, do your best and put some pride back into the jumper. Four point to me is irrelavant just want to see a positive step taken

[Range Rover 1,935]

Relax, we haven't got this.

[Je Roos Salem 661]

I want to see us gang-tackling, kicking into space and to forwards on the lead, no chipping to stationery players who are cut off and stand still as their opponent runs away. I want to see players like Trengove getting loose and running down the wings. I want to see Frawley dashing out of defence and not hesitating to dispose of it. I want players to look at the goals when they mark inside 50, not looking for other players.

It's as simple as making an effort. I've been pleased with our effort in some losses in the past, such as against the Dogs 2 years ago (Which we were extremely unlucky to lose). I won't measure our performance by a margin but players need to want the ball and want to be out there (I'll be watching Sylvia and Moloney closely)

[wattsup 470]

if we win this game ratten would get the sack

[Face Your Demons 175]

Come on guys let play the blues back into form.

[Jack7 463]

Let's forget about winning games and concentrate on winning quarters at the moment,we've won 4 from 32 quarters so far.

The coaching staff should demand 100 tackles this week at least because if we don't have the ball and we aren't tackling,we're watching.

Jack Watts must play at CHB ON the CHF all day.

[Gorgoroth 12,431]

We will run them back into form.

[Dr. Gonzo 22,782]

Jack Watts must play at CHB ON the CHF all day.

Jack Watts must play in the forward 50 next to Mitch Clark all day.

[DEELIRIOUS 156]

If we don't lift this week after all this bagging then we are OFFICIALLY SHITE!

[Face Your Demons 175]

The blues will be really fired up this week so lets see how we handle that.

I seriously doubt we have to wait till sunday
