Whatever....

Alternatively, we could change our attitude and be destined for middle of the road mediocrity like so many others.

I know which I prefer.

I haven't visited here for a while ... a quick scan of the post index has certainly primed me for R1 - not that I needed much priming anyway.

Only someone who didn't barrack for Carlton and had come to accept the cold, hard stench of failure over many years would think that.

Even I may as well get in on the act, you seem to love it rough!

I only get that whiff when the wind is from the NNW these days.
Yes we were disgraceful on Friday but still would've defeated Carltoon.

Quite possible, especially with 3 or our (IMO) most important 4 likely no-shows: Rivers, Bruce, McLean.

You guys might be missing Rivers, Bruce and McLean, but we're still missing Silvagni, Sexton and Dean.

and besides - Rivers hasn't been the same since Nip/Tuck

Bruce has gone completely mad
