Memo to players .... don't cough up goals in the first and/or last minute of quarters.

Memo to mids....dont get jumped again.

 

My message to the team would be run, run, run.

That swarm has beaten others, and we do it all over the field.

We aren't doing stupid things when we have the ball, so don't start today. Do the basics well and take your opportunities.

Hoping for a stylish high skilled game with a lot of effort and 1 percenters.

I still want them to be angry and not to ease up on a middle of the table team.

Need our accuracy and centre clearances to improve.

We must have confidence, which helps in game planning and  the ability to implement the things they work on during the week, plus having a smile at their workplace, I expect continued improvement.

Agree about getting jumped early and coughing up junk time goals.  Don't allow it.

Go Dees

Addit:

            Who is the med sub?  Melky's the sub. Great to have experience around the players and if called on.

            How is the weather?

We're playing one of the only sides comparable to us for poor starts: both us and them have only won 3 of 8 first quarters this year (North, Fremantle, Adelaide and St Kilda are the only other sides in the competition less than 4).

They're 6 of 8 in third quarters, but only 4 of 8 in fourth quarters (we're 7 of 8 and the only loss was last week to Sydney by a point).


Is anyone behind the goals at the Punt road end singing "Youll Never Walk Alone?"

A W in the W/L column is all that's required 

I reckon we'll have that covered halfway through the 2nd quarter, and really turn it on. A 10 goal win is there for the taking.

 

Also, since sacking Brendan Bolton in mid-2019, Carlton have lost 20 games. But of those 20 losses, only two have been by more than 5 goals (a 68 point loss to Geelong in the last round of 2019 and a 31 point loss to Hawthorn last year).

So they don't always win, but under Teague they rarely get well beaten.

Would love to see a big first quarter today. 
 

We’ve only won the first quarter in three matches this year, and with the exception of Rd 1 against the Dockers, not by much at all.  
 

Of the teams we’ve lost first quarters to are the Hawks and the Roos. 
 

Our slow starts can’t become the norm.

Gerard on 360 said that May needed the scalp of McKay today in order to be seen as sitting alongside Andrews, Moore and Weitering in the elite fullback club.

Although that is garbage as he already sits comfortably alongside them, and it’s one game, if that’s what he and others need to allow him into the elite club then so be it.

I’ll take a win and Maysie giving Harry a nice bath.

 

Shallowly assumptive of the star qualities; just look at the points against for the team across the ladder. That will tell you who is most likely to be the most effective at fullback, holding the whole defence together and initiating plays into attack. May is already up there and simultaneously, ahead. 

According to BT on ch 7

when we have one the first 9. We have gone on to win the flag.   Please win today.   Go Dees

Absolutely essential and attitude-shaping.

Did Bowey get injured yesterday? On crutches.

Yes he got injured early in yesterday’s game against the Cats.


Watching the guys pay each other on the back etc before going out into the ground

what did The pie player fo that was so bad ?

I am literally surrounded by Carlton supporters. I must’ve done something heinous in a previous life. ?

GO DEEEEZ!!!

❤️?

Expecting more from Hunt. A few 100 m dashes down the middle with a couple of sausages.mmmm.sausages.


I wish that I was at the game, it is much harder when you are watching from home not so many distractions to take your mind off the pre game jitters. Three daughters and grandson are there. I am desperately wanting this Winning feeling to continue, on and on and on.....!!!!

Go Dee’s !!!!!!!!

I want to see AnB and perhaps Hunt have a blinder. Cos if they can do well and they are our ( arguable ) unpredictable players. We wil win easily.

stuff winning by a point I want to win by 60 !

Every week WCW.

Hoping there is no niggle from them.

Enjoy the game.

 

Plugga McDonald..

We have to get off to a great start. The past few weeks the teams have jumped us by kicking the first few goals.

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
