I think most importantly, they more than got the job done.
Is it just me, or does the team seem more ruthless in the last 3 weeks? Easy to say against average opposition, but 3 weeks in a row they have put the foot down, and not let up. I've been waiting for ruthless to come back into our playing agenda for over 20 years.
That is new...... and I think gives them a chance against better opposition. I guess we'll find out on Saturday.
This is now the longest premiership drought in the history of the Carlton Football Club - more evidence of climate change?

Hmmmm not sure i like this news as much as most blues fans - liked the thought of them as favorites and us as underdogs.
Now the pressure is back on us to win this while they are weakened which in the past never worked out well for us!
Hopefully we have progressed past that

Good in that our defence has a better chance. Bad in that we won't get an assessment against one of the best. Regardless, I hope we show the same insatiable appetite for the contest, tackle hard, and show some dare & flair 4q.

I wonder who the other 4 are?
Rioli ?
That's a lot of change.
