More Pain On The Way For Mick Malthouse

0-3 sounds bad in any one's language but in what I think have been undermanned teams they have put up stirring efforts that can't be overlooked.
Coming from the clouds (7 goals down) against the Tigers in Round 1 to lose by less than a goal, then leading Collingwood by 10 points at 3/4 time only to lose by 17 points and tonight losing ruckman Mat Kreuzer early then going down by 17 points again just small periods are costing them with their best key forward on his seemingly yearly injury break and Eddie Betts the best small forward goal kicker in the league out they are having a real crack, but now they travel to perth to play the Eagles which is massive for both teams.
My pre-season pick for top spot the Eagles are 1-2 their win over a supposed AFL standard team Melbourne and 2 losses at home both by considerable margins. Kreuzer being out for 6-8 weeks is a nightmare for the Blues when coming up against Dean Cox just lucky Nic Naitanui is injured.
Funny thing is if they can keep their front half of the ground open I can see Garlett and Yarran causing all sort's of headaches, short story shorter if they lose and Mick is sitting 0-4 I'm sure Bret Ratten will be sitting somewhere with a rye smile and so would I, he didn't deserve what he got seem's every forgot the player's he had missing for most of last year, well if Mick Malthouse is the great genius coach everyone says he is let's see it.
