Rd 6: Pre Game Palaver: Carlton vs. Essendon

[shawny]

x2....They dont have much of a defense but we dont have much of an attack....only needs one player from either side to fire up and kick 4+ goals and thats probably going to be enough
to win the game....
You would think we would win with Cripps, Murphy etc leading the way but its Essendon which takes some logic out of the equation, we just seem to have a mental barrier when playing them that goes all the way back to Sheedy vs Parkin. They think they can take us no matter what the circumstances and too many times I have seen us fold up in the past to be over confident...
I am going to enjoy this win more than the Freo game but I will also be riding every kick until the siren as the Bombers seem to get lucky vs us when it matters.....

I agree with this.

Never confident against this mob. Last week they looked like the bottom side we all know they are but the week prior they pushed the cats till into the last quarter. I watched that game and they wouldn't go away and kept scoring when needed to be close enough to pinch it. The cats class broke them in the last 20mins but was far from easy. 

Result this week hinges a lot on which bombers team turns up....
