Brisbane v Carlton

Featured Replies

Posted

Great start to the commentary by Quartermain:

"It's been a long time between drinks in September for these two sides."

Haven't Brisbane won 3 flags and appeared in four Grand finals this decade?

Happy for him that he doesn't follow the Dees or the Saints.

 

It has been 5 years for them. And 8 years for Carlton. Still a long time between drinks.

Yep. Spot on. It's been a whole 6 years since the last of Brisbane's 3 consecutive premierships. Makes the 45 years Melbourne has waited pale in comparison.

Great to see TJ take the kick for Browny and goal. Not saying we should have kept him, but miss him all the same. Go Roller!

Yes it was straight through the middle. Gee he could do with a shave. Has played a pretty handy 1st half and Black 17 possessions during the same period.

Trapper 2 goals after snap to keep lions in touch. Carltons midfield looks to have edge. Good game.

Carlton by 22 points not over but looking more and more like a Dogs v Blues semi.

 

Ha, love it.

My betting is literally cursed, but this time I love that!

Great last quarter and well done Lions.

The Blues got everything they deserve. Good riddance. Could not think of a better finish to the season for them.

Will Judd be required to explain an unprovoked hand/fingers in Riscotelli's eyes when the Lions player was on the ground?


Excellent game and even better result

Trapper 2 goals after snap to keep lions in touch.

Was happy to see him in the finals and playing a good game.

Previous week Cometti (I think) described him as lookin like he just jumped up from under a pile of newspapers on a park bench.....

Ha Ha! Suck my not hairy balls! Carlsank Carltank!

You shave then?


Karma is Daniel Rich kicking that miracle goal late in the game and the kick forward that led to the Bradshaw snap that came close to icing the game to Trapper's point that did ice the game.

At least they can go to to the VFL and watch Chris Yarran and Chris Johnson play for the Northern Bullants and wonder why they bypassed Rich and which idiot in recruiting confused Johnson with Johnstone!

Would a suspension here take Judd out of the running for the Brownlow?

I believe it's only for suspensions made during the home and away season

He might go for eye gouging.

Sling me a few hundred grand a year and make it my full time job and I will! It's not like he said it in the middle of the game without time to think about it; it was in his opening statements before the game. I don't hate the bloke or anything, just thought it was a stupid thing to say. I think I'm going to go back to the home-made am radio simulcast from now on.

Go Lions! Go Johnno! Stuff you Carlton!

Glad I'm not a Carlton supporter, you'd be absolutely shattered. Reminded me be a bit of the 2002 semi between Melbourne and Adelaide when the dees went down after being up by 20 points in the final term. Mind you I think that one was more shattering for us because of the way we had come back from 40 points down.

Makes next friday night a bit of a non-contest but I'll still be cheering the Lions and TJ on all the same.

Carlton? I didn't know they were coming and I hardly noticed that they've now gone ...

 

I dont like Carlton and happy with the result.

Carlton have made the finals this year and are on target to potentially challenge in 2 to 3 years time. They have a few holes to fill in the their side though. And a couple of crucial LT injuries did not help them

I dont like Carlton and happy with the result.

Me too.

I was at a function last night with a lot of Carlstink supporters and watched the last 10 minutes with them.

I then started singing the Lions song and was not a popular person I can assure you. However, I loved it.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
