I tend to agree with you Booney. I have Galucci in that same mould. They just don't seem like they have enough aggression. I know not all players have it but when push comes to shove, especially in big finals, you need it and the side with the most c*nt factor in them will get the win more times than not.

Ive got a heap of Carlton mates going along on Sat night, all their plans focus around getting as smashed as they can before they head to AO.

It will definitely be more than 2 weeks but hopefully not as severe as the cases mentioned before.

All this could have been avoided if they just rested him from when it originally happened. This could turn into 2 months :(

I blame the "Powerstance" from last year's finals for all of this awareness.

I remember when Burton came back from Brisbane people went crazy as Brisbane had a bad run with injuries. Since Burton took over our run has been impeccable. Matt Hass is the new General Manager High Performance who actually worked under Burton at Brisbane i believe and is highly regarded like Burton.

Bad management or bad luck? Trying to squeeze 12 weeks of training into 8 weeks could also be a factor.

Still have 5 wins on the board and only 2 loses, look at the positives.

Other teams would kill for 5 wins for the season.

Really, only Brouch and Sloane are ones that we really miss. Hartigan is also best 22 but I dont think we lose that much by playing otten instead

Dont think we can use injuries as an excuse if we dont beat port this week
