Re: 2015-Rnd 6 Carlton vs Brisbane (Preview) - Meddy43 - 05-02-2015
This is the only game I'll be at this year, cos of where I live, so I am really hoping for a win and hope Judd gets up for it. Might be my last time seeing him play.

cimm, don't worry, a win against the Lions won't save anyone's bacon.
But a loss might have more impact.

I can hope for a win as well. That I no longer expect one tells a lot about how we are faring.
Robbo tried to fire up Brisbane with his comments earlier. He, at least, will be fired up to perform well. I would hope to rob him of this, but at the moment we do not appear to be able to rob a toddler of a lollie without stuffing it up.
Like Meddy, I really want to make an impression. We have guys like Judd, Carrots, Simmo and the like who are not immortal and who may not see next year. They deserve to have a few wins. I cannot think of what we will be like without them, but we had better get used to it. It is coming and there is nothing coming up behind them.

But if, as Juddy just said, our guys are playing more for the jumper than themselves, then they should be doing better, showing more heart, wanting the ball more. I did not see that last night. I want to see it against Brisbane and in every other game we play. Our players were not just disrespecting themselves but disrespecting the Guernsey and the guys like Judd and Carrots who have put their bodies on the line for our club. I want to see them showing the respect our club deserves! I do not want to be a St. Kilda or a Western Bulldogs or a Melbourne.

Perhaps - I just have a philosophical opposition to wanting my team to lose.

Losing can never be a good thing mate, under any circumstances.
The supporters cheering when we got beaten by Melbourne and confirmed Kreuzer in the 2007 draft have sawdust for brains, would Trent Cotchin be handy in navy blue?
The club tanked and got their prize recruit, but all that did was confirm a culture at the club that losing is acceptable and can sometimes be a good thing, it's an attitude that has always mystified me.
I hope we smash Brisbane and that Zach Tuohy knocks Robinson senseless.

Hey Crash - Did you find Mick's book about the slow ox?
Come to think about it, that book might have something to do with how slow most of the players seem to be.
