AFL Rd 7 2022 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs North Melbourne

[BluePhantom]

Apparently McG has re-injured the hammy.

Can it get any worse?

Yes, when we lose to NM the players stand around laughing while shaking hands after the game. >

Voss describes Carroll as tough, can't imagine a better compliment for Carroll especially coming from a player of the ilk of Voss!

If Voss reckons you are tough, it means something!

Just worry when the likes of Voss states that publicly it will put a target on young Carroll's back that the knuckle draggers likes of Ziebell or Zurhaar cannot resist!

If those two (the Z's) try the mongrel act I'm pretty confident that a Voss coached team knows how to deal with it... firstly, don't let it take your focus off the game. As for those who can effectively remonstrate and depending on where it happens, I'd expect Crippa, Doc, Stocks, SOJ, H and a couple of others to fly the flag. And there's JC himself, not shy by a long shot.

That's why Diesel was so good.  Pity he never sent Denham to the afterlife

I'll never forget that day, one that lives in infamy, to paraphrase FDR.

Not sure I get the pessimism re this game. Yes, the Wallaroos will come hard after their disastrous past coupla weeks, but we're also coming off a very disappointing loss. We've got some good ins to replace a coupla gooduns (Pits, Hewey) and some non-hackers. Plus this is the mob that humiliated us last year... that'll dwell with discomfort in some.

I just hope we don't make hard work of it. Boldness and speed on the aggot will have this mob doubting themselves in no time as they rely on slowing the game into an ugly rolling pack.

I know people are worried about us not having an enforcer but cripps has stopped flopping around looking for frees and is taking no prisoners throwing his weight around.  A 195cm midfield bull who will hurt you the next time you get the footy.  Yeah let's beat up his mates.

Apparently, Diesel's retaliation cost Denham his sense of smell, so Denham didn't get to use Diesel as a punching bag for free.

Have we ever, EVER played with a full strength team in the last 20yrs?
No player injured?
Talk about the footy gods against us!

Not once in the last 20 years, and probably not for a few years before that.

Last 20 games
WLLLLLLWLWLWWLLLLLWL
Prepare yourselves.

I see what happened tonight in Perth and think why the F@$k can't we do the same thing tomorrow night.
Time will tell
