Maybe because I have 6 weeks' worth of scars, I wouldn't back us to beat anyone at the moment (well, probably WCE)
We seem to find inventive ways every week to shoot ourselves in the foot and lose by 3-4 goals.
Unfortunately there is a nagging, little voice in the back of my head that keeps saying 'it will all click soon.....'
Will this be the week?
Remember when we were desperate to crack the ton? I'd be happy with 70 on Sunday.....
This is now the longest premiership drought in the history of the Carlton Football Club - more evidence of climate change?

Ed was pretty good on Merrett last week when Merrett was on the ball. Does he get another run-with role this week on one of Rowell or Anderson? If so, and if Hewett comes in, do we need to drop one of the midfielders? I'd prefer to see Docherty go back to half bank flank and provide a bit of a cool head down there....we've been all over the shop the last few weeks.

Doc has been one of the wasteful ones with the footy in recent times. Might be e cool head defensively, needs to do the same with disposal.

SOS Motlop Out
Pitto Newman In
They have given the full squad yet
Carlton has rung the changes yet again after its eighth loss in the past nine games. The versatile Silvagni has been dropped from the 22 to face Gold Coast along with Jesse Motlop, while Nic Newman and Marc Pittonet are certain starters. David Cuningham has been named on the extended bench and remains a chance to play his first game since round nine, 2021.

Binns has been named as "NEW" in the AFL teams. Doesn't that usually mean they get on the ground?
