Carlton would go into the game as under dogs with or without Walsh so i dont think a to big a change in mindset
it is however 1st game of the season and 1st game with a new coach expect them to come out and have a crack
Dimma has said "you cant have them fully screwed down , its a long season" in reference to early rounds , and back in the Tommy Hafey days he would have them peaking in the back half of the season so hardly a new concept
Voss wont see himself as contending for a flag , but he has to win over the Carlton board , players and supporters , and do it quickly and will want to restablish himself as a 1st grade coach in the eyes of the broader AFL community
I could see him having the Blues more ready for round 1 than us
we will have to rely on attitude and class for the 1st game , i'm not nervous
