You would think we would play like our lives depended on it come Sunday > If ever there was a time for heroics it is this week, we just have to smash em in every area of the game except clangers, frees against etc :hihi
That's another point that only a few have brought up. No doubt Carlton were great in the last quarter and a half last week, but there are those who said that at one point in that game Port simply stopped. Could it be that Carlton have already played their final and we just tuned up on Essendon Saturday night?spook said:Media goons like Maaaaah and Walls are talking up the second halves last week of Murphy and Gibbs and Cartoon in general. Not one person has raised the point that Port had nothing to play for except to avoid injury and were happy to put the cue in the rack once they got nearly 7 goals clear. Or that Port has got the staggers, belted by both Geelong and Freo, so beating them when they're taking it easy ain't no thang. Or that Cartoon only just beat us with 4 out, heavy legs and playing terribly. Or lost to Esserdope, who have been shot ducks for 6 weeks.
Let em talk it up. I can't wait until Sunday.

tiges said:some think having harder games going into a final is more beneficial, i would have thought the more rested a team is the better.
Agreed. Playing GWS is like a training run. They're so poor that it's really hard to gauge form against them. Essendon weren't good, but they provided more of a contest than GWS have all year.Azza said:I'm glad we didn't play GWS last week. Essendone was a much better build-up.
