Was it 2006?

If so, that is mind boggling.

Can someone look that up, I dont know where to look.

    That is a long time ago in football terms.

    This is a good start:

    win loss sequence

    There's a sequence here too. The interval between recent wins is decreasing, viz. 6 games, 6, 5, 5.

    So the next win is against Hawthorn in Round 9.

    I always use AFL Tables and I think it is easily the best and easiest to search

    That AFL Tables is fantastic!! I just spent time being a kid again. (amazing how many games you remember by looking at scores) Ahh the '70's six games on a saturday with a tranny & a biro. "Peanuts"

    bit early to think about consecutive wins. one win sequences are pretty good at the moment.

    Disagree.

    We can beat Adelaide this weekend.

    I want the playing group to win 2 on the trot.

    Not to mention Pelaco Inquest, the Sporting Globe and World of Sport (but of course that would have been the 60s).

    Too right! Would be a real blast for this club to win 2 on the trot. Set up a big crowd for the Geelong Game. Sign up members. Sell scarves etc etc.

    I don't expect to beat the cats but i expect a better effort than last years disaster!

    What would be interesting is to compare teams when they bottom out. If we can get two on the trot and clear up that record that would be nice, but I have a suspicion Carlton went a few years without putting two together.

    Tell me about it. I was lucky to get my hands on the Globe. We used to get The Truth too, only for the from of course.

    The ABC panel at 8pm was also good and why did they get rid of the Tony Charlton Channel 9 footy show at noon on sunday, the one that got the

    Norm Smith sacking exclusive.

    Good point. I might look into it.

    By the way, another stats site people might like is http://afl.allthestats.com

    Carlton went 6 seasons with only 4 back to back wins counting 3 in a row as 2 instances.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
