I live in an area that has a relatively high concentration of Carlton supporters. So much so that there's a traffic jam in the street outside packed with carloads of Blues fans arriving home early from the G.

This is what other supporters must have felt when watching Melbourne with so many dud players and very little prospects for the future.

Abject boredom with some mild relief that it's not them?

Cant wait to play the scum !!! :)

I reckon Gibbs is worth a first round pick to a good side, but the blues need to be aggressive at the trade table and get some decent young talent in

Not based tonight's game he's not. Long way off his best.

Micks got the record now it's time to go, clearly not working.

And Seven have 4 more of these shitfest Carlton Friday night matches to look forward to!

Meanwhile, talented young lists like Melbourne, GWS and the Bulldogs have none. Some fantastic forward planning there by the geniuses at Channel 7.

The Malthouse chosen game a is boring life's affair. The Blues are a steaming, stinky rubbish tip on fire. Well done Mick.

Bring the Dees back to Friday nights!!!

Cameron Ling doesn't know the rules of the game either, you are not allowed to be bumped of the ball is not within 5m Cam.

Good call 'Cards', was saying exactly the same thing to a mate...but it's not just Ling it's the other commentators who agreed and the umps who are not paying it.

Yeah, ain't it great?

I wouldn't mind poaching Cripps from them.

Beat me to it 'Fester'...probably the only one of their players worth poaching at the moment. Looks like he will be a beauty.

Carlton making Collingwood look better than they are.

Yep, they've got Geelong, Richmond, GC, North then us. North will give them a physical game if nothing else then they ours for the taking. Viney and Jetta will be back and barring no further injuries were a massive chance.

You know what.. for all the [censored] Jack Watts cops for being soft how Bryce Gibbs gets under the rader mind boggling.

True but when Geelong beat Richmond the focus will turn.

I've been saying for a while that Collingwood will be good. Unlike a lot of teams, they got rid of their good players while they still had some value (as much as it has hurt them in recent years).

They have a lot of good kids, plus a few who haven't played. The win over the Bombers took most by surprise but wins over Saints/lions/Carlton aren't an accurate gauge. Next week interesting vs Geelong. A team on the way up v one on the way down.

Agree entirely.

I've been rambling on about this ever since the fixture came out but Carlton wasn't even any good last year, they should never have gotten close to 6 Friday nights (+ a Thursday night). It's indefensible that the football public has to be repeatedly subjected to watching boring Friday night beltings (the remaining games include Carlton away to Sydney and a Hawthorn v Carlton game - those are going to be enormous thrashings).

It only adds insult to injury that Melbourne, the Bulldogs and GWS have improved to the point where games involving them would be competitive, maybe even exciting, and definitely a lot closer than Carlton v Sydney/Hawthorn.

Nobody panic about Friday night Carlton withdrawals in the next fortnight after Collingwood v Geelong next week, as normal service resumes the week after with Carlton v Geelong on Friday. And guess what follows that? Sydney v... Carlton. Don't worry though, Carlton is back on Friday nights in Round 17 against... Hawthorn.

FMD I'm glad this fixturing completely blew up in Seven's face after completely screwing us and the Bulldogs over. Something like 7 Friday night games each for Richmond, Carlton and Collingwood, of which only one team is any good. So much for needing to "earn" Friday nights!

Can't believe the Pies picked up Grundy at pick 18! He will be the best ruck man in the comp b the end of next year, if not this year. We haven't had a good ruck men since Jeff White (no offence to Jamar I like his effort but he isn't in the same league).

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
