Who gives a rats if we get one-week suspensions this week? We're going to lose next week anyway.

I want Mitch Robinson knocked out.

I want blood.

I want Lynden Dunn to snipe for the fun of it.

I want Bull to run over a few Carlton players a la Savage, Shaw.

I want Carlton's sub activated by the end of the first quarter.

Nice VENT, now go and have a soothing Hot Chocolate....Leave the Team Tactics to Mr Viney this week.

He has just put his balls on the line....

Bad thread and dumb thought.

Stupid actions on the ground dont make up for some dumber actions off the ground.

He obviously felt emasculated after the Geelong game, and if the above happens vicariously he may recover half a one..

Or we could put that effort into our football performance perhaps? I agree somewhat in that we shoulsd throw everything at Carlton this week after last week.

forgive me for them wanting to show something after last week and Carlton labelling us bruise-free earlier this year?

Point taken, but i would prefer to see scoreboard pressure....a win keeps us in the hunt for September.

I'm with the intent of your OP striker, however I'd prefer we don't lose players, but to see the boys playing with real [censored] would make me smile. We know Bull can run blokes down, we know Dunn can be a right pain in the arse, and we know Trenners and Jordie can drive a bloke into the earth with a great tackle. I'll accept all of that, but there's no reason for us to be scumbags like the mob we're about to play.

What would hurt Carlton the most is being crushed by a passionate and hard team that are willing to give anything for the red and blue. And as supporters we should except nothing less.

Correct. The Jumper that Chris Judd should have chosen, but didn't.

I also like the intent of the OP. I agree with what everyone else has said too. BUT remember Hawthorn's "unsociable football" - it just might take a couple to cross the line once or twice in order that the whole team spends most of the game just 'this' side of the line. When an opposition player lines up against Brown, Robinson, Hodge etc... and they have to wait under a high ball, there is something inside their head saying, "I might get cleaned up here. I've seen him do it before..." and there's a chance they don't go as hard. Look at half of our team as an example of this effect!

"Time to get filthy" needs to mean, win contested ball and win tackle count. These are only stats but they are usually definitive. Be a good start, anyway.

Watching Viney's full press conference i have no doubt that he has read the riot act to the players about their hunger to win the contested ball. At a bare minimum i expect to see a really hard fierce competitive effort on Saturday, regardless of whether we win or lose...

Totally agree that we will see some good contested footy.

It will be very interesting to see the changes to the team. Im tipping the dees for a win and keeping our final hopes alive,

I really wouldn't think thuggish tactics or the reading of the riot act are necessary in these circumstances. The way that events unfolded in the past week should be enough if they have pride in themselves. However, with a tough no nonsense bloke like Todd Viney at the helm I doubt we're going to see players shirking issues if they want to be in the side the following week.

I will be more interested in how the team is set up. I expect it will be a lot different to the past and further, that the uncertainty on this will cause some issues at Carlton.

While I agree with Rhino's point that this is a pretty dumb thread and that mindless violence is not the answer, secretly I hope points 1, 2 and 3 all come together in the one act. Losing Lynden Dunn for the rest of the season through suspension for knocking out Mitch Robinson would put me in a happy place.

100% correct, but we never seem to get this do we?

I don't necessarily want blood. But I get what your saying Striker. When a club comes out and calls says you play bruise free football it's embarrassing. Time for some of the playing group to step up and play some hard football. Just do it legally.

He has done nothing of the sort. He doesn't want to coach full time. He's helping out.

You are wrong.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
