In the 1980's when Robert Walls was in charge of the Blues he introduced the notorious 100x100 sprints as part of pre-season training. I remember going down to training as a teenager and watching the players complete this usually on the day before they broke up for their Xmas break. I vividly...

I know alot of carlton people will be hurting like crazy tonight. The thought of rocking up to work or school or the dole office tomorrow leaves a sick feeling in the gut. I don't know if anyone else is feeling this way but I've actually become immune to failure and disappointment. It's a...

In my day when i was running amok in junior football my coach use to put a loose player in defence when we were kicking against the breeze and told us to build a wall when the opposition was kicking out from full-back. That was 30 years ago. I reckon he could coach Melbourne.

Excitement machine. Injuries have held him back but by god he can play. Sorry Adam.

Has 'Captain Carlton' become the best team mascot in the competition? Ridiculed when he first arrived onto the scene in the early 2000's this Superhero turned fanatical Carlton icon has surpassed all other mascots. Before the Rd 1 Richmond game there was a kicking for goal competition...

What a terrible show. Gerard Wheatley is quite possibly the most pretentious geek going around. The opening of the show when he says "I'm Gerard Wheatley" and then points to the slob on his left and says "and he's Mark Robinson" is the most cringe worthy repetitive line on telly.

About 7/8 years back we got a ruckman from the Lions. He was horendous. I think he wore Number 27. I could be wrong though.....??

pick a player that you said wouldn't be much chop after they played a handful of games. Mine was Steele Sidebottom. I thought he was a fraction slow, had a pretty crappy build and would end up being a run of the mill player. He is a now a gun, and one of the future stars of the competition.

Lets face it, other than watching these guys playing footy we only get a indication of what footballers personlaties are like through the eyes of the media. I reckon Jonothan Brown and Luke hodge appear to be the two darlings of the media.

I was at the Adelaide Oval last night for the Big Bash b/tw the Red Backs and The Bushrangers and I saw recently retired Simon Wiggins on the the famous Adelaide Oval Hill blind drunk. On closer expection I noticed he had his arm draped around an even drunker Trent Sporn. I spent the next hour...

Seems to be flying under the radar a bit Mr.Brown. Can't handle Fev, star players walking from the club and now a young guy criticising the culture...

Talent aside Collins appears to be a ripping bloke and the ultimate team player something we lack. Grigg on the otherhand..........

average journalist....

It's not rocket science I know but tonight we need to make a statement early in the game. I'm not talking about cheap shots and giving away stupid free kicks and 50M penalties like we have done in the past against the Bombers, but rather a genuine effort to attack the ball and the opposition...

Got there early enough (9am) to watch Bower running laps at full tilt. Should be ok for next week. Brad Fisher also looks to be moving quite well as well. Some other guy was running laps but i didn't recognise him. looked at my carlton poster when i got home and it may have been rohan kerr...

Don't know Walkers contract status but I reckon he will be a prime target for either team. Unfortunately he has just not progressed in the way we would like. He lacks presence on the ground, looks uniterested at times, butchers the pill and really is lucky to be holding his place in the team...

I know it's another Jordan Russell thread but because there were so many threads in the past devoted to bagging the abolute suitcases outa of him it's only fair that the ledger be squared praising his efforts. Quite outstanding last night i actually thought he was BOG. His courage and...

**** the so-called experts. Bring on season 2010. I'm confident the boys can prove everyone wrong. Can't wait to Thursday night and beyond....... We have an amazingly talented group who will gell together when the real stuff starts. Have faith my friends!!!! :thumbsu::)

last year we finally got over Sydney, Nth. Melbourne and Geelong. All 3 sides had given us hell for a number of years. There are still three teams that are laughing at us and what better way to shut them up would be to have wins over them in 2010. We haven't beaten St.Kilda since 2001...

I bought this the other day based on some outstanding reviews I had read. On a few listens I don't know if I'm sold yet. Interested on any other opinions??

Just bought Scott Kannbergs new release and I must say I'm more than impressed. The Sound is actually un Pavement Like and reminds me alot of the music that was coming out of Australia in the early eighties, i.e: Go betweens, Ed Keuper etc. Looking forward to a few more listens.:thumbsu:

****in weak as piss to those who are jumping ship over losing fevola. please trust the club in what they've done.

I'm a little confused with the Bulldogs ridiculous offer for Barry Hall. On the one hand Footscray are willing to offer Hall a two year contract and three hundred thousand year which is very generous, coupled with the fact that they believe he will win them a grandfinal. But on the otherhand...

Was Ken Sheldon part Aboriginal? Because on the Marngrook Footy show each week they highlight young Sam as being an Indigenous player.

Brett Ratten was pumping up Chris Judd during the week telling the world that Judd was in career best form. Lets get a few things straight Brett: 1. For a start Judd isn't as good as he was at the Eagles 2. Even if Judd is in career best form is there a need for Ratten to make such an...

Travis Cloke would be disappointed he is not playing as Carlton always seems to play outa form opposition players back into form. Remember Matthew Lloyd a few weeks ago and even scott lucas got a few cheapies that night as well. expect Anthony Rocca to kick a lazy 5.

Where the hell was the intensity and effort when the ****ing game needed to be won in the first half? Another piss ****ing effort by the Blues. PRETENDERS!!

we have beaten Richmond, Brisbane and "The Trickers" The Western Bulldogs but lets face it the real test will come against the hawks at MCG on Saturday. Carlton need to start beating the benchmark teams: Hawthorn, Geelong and St.Kilda to be taken seriously.

Everytime I've switched SEN or 3AW on this week it seems Rodney Eade is either in the studio or being interviewed by phone. Didn't the Bulldog's board led buy Rose demand that Rodney scale back his media committments at the end of '07'? It begs the question. Which AFL coach spends the most...

The player who just gets the world from the umpires......You only have to breathe on them and they get a free. Post your Top 3: 1. Brad Johnson (Western Bulldogs) 2. Gary Ablett Junior (Geelong) 3. Nick Riewoldt (St.Kilda)
