Here's the team Carlscum v Essendon - what happens to Walla when you add water?

[Riolio]

And we’ll have kicked 5.16 for the day and had double the inside 50’s, won the clearances, free kicks, etc.

I think the Heartly decision is as much about Brown playing a blinder than him playing terribly.

With so many players vying for selection there are going to be plenty of hard luck stories for the year.

Gee it’s going to be tough on Jerrett/McKenna or even Morgan if they come in when Kelly has a rest and play well yet get dropped straight away.

This is the joys of having a deep squad. The selection pressure is clearly immense at the moment.

According to Whoosh, that won’t happen.

What statement are you referring to?

[dingus]

More and more convinced we aren’t going to lose.

We’re up and cocky.
They are down and look hopeless.
It’s going to ■■■■ rain.
We haven’t had a horrible loss to them for a while.

Conditions are perfect for a horrible soul destroying loss. One of the those games where they are just in front all day and we all think that puente boys are going to eventually come good, but they never do and the Scum kick away at about the 25 minute mark of the last.

Please please prove me wrong, football gods.

Who’s cocky?

I’m definitely cocky.

We’ll smash fark carlton in to the MCG turf so hard it would be quicker to dig through to the other side.

We’re gonna wreck them so ■■■■■■■ hard the AFL will fine them for bringing the game in to disrepute.

[BLOODSTAINED_DEVILS]

The Negative Nancy Boys are out in force …

[brem06]

Fark me, you lot are depressing.

We’re. Gunna. Win.

Probably by as much as 8 goals.

The one in bold, above.

If you meant which statement by Whoosha, I’m referring to when he said that should our younger players provide a similar output and show at least as much potential, they will be preferred over the mature guys.

[samwoods]

This is the real reason players should never read blitz.

I don’t read the articles, i’m here for the photos.

Any loss to fark Carlton is a horrible loss.

We lost to them the first time around last year.

It WAS a horrible loss.

We had an excuse in 2016. this year there are no excuses.
Besides, this round we have a real ruckman

It WAS a horrible loss.

It was a horrible game full stop. I remember laughing at the skills from both teams they were that poor. Every move forward from either team between quarter time and halfway through the 3rd would end in either an out on the full or intercept mark. Putrid.

[SMJ]

If we lose it is now 100% officially your fault.

[chris_64]

I noted in the Sun this morning. No one tipped Carlton. This should be ringing alarm bells out at the TVSC. Complacency warning needs to be issued in no uncertain terms.

[SMJ]

You and Peos are men that get it.

I’m starting to have that sick feeling in the pit of my stomach already.

And since my last post, my brother (also a man who gets it), and who NEVER texts me, sent me a text saying that he was getting really worried about Sunday.

It’s on. I feel it.

[Deckham]

wtf is wrong with you guys…

[SMJ]

Nothing. On the other hand, any Essendon fan who is not thinking this way must be a goldfish.

I agree 200%…We need to stay focused and hungry (like the wolf)

[SMJ]

Also I should point out that I’m normally extremely positive. I said we were 100% going to beat the Hawks, and said so on these forums for months. Carlton games are different though.

And are you generally a superstitious person, would you say? When did you begin feeling this way? As a child?
