For a while there I was able to contain it, tap my inner saint and pretend I was sympathetic to their whining fans...

but then I heard they had a hovercraft and thought "screw this! I'm going to let it out!"

I am so happy that Carlton are a rabble!

Tickled that their prospects are bleak

Giggling that their list is malformed.

I'm even amused that their hovercraft flipped on the Yarra... I mean as far as warnings of hubris at football clubs go, buying a hovercraft must be in the top ten.

Carlton board meeting "Lots to get through tonight boys... first item on the Agenda who gets first ride on our new hovercraft?"

Genius!

Love it.

I just checked the fixture to see when we get to smash them and we dont play them until Round 21? WTF?

They will be under a caretaker.

Their recruiting has been worse than ours. The list is In awful shape and the club is fractured and divided, very much reminds me of us when Bailey was sacked.

They must make every decision a winner from now or more pain to come

Carlton are now a well-entrenched second tier AFL team. Blame it on the boogie, blame it on Malthouse, but definitely blame it on the John Elliott culture. The relative demise of teams such as Richmond Carlton and Essendons of this world is our only hope of sneaking back into the upper echelons of this competition. Who would have thunk back in the days of the drop kick, that these teams would have won three premierships between them in their last (collective) 70 years (carlton 1995, richmond 81, essendon 2000.

Borrowed this from rusty Nails in Stats thread -

Ex Carlton small forwards Eddie Betts and our boy Jeffy Garlett rank in the top quartile of all small / medium forwards at No.2 and No. 25 respectively with Eddie being ranked 34th in the league overall !! Me thinks Carlton may have made a "blue" or two letting these blokes go :)

not much they could have done about Eddie he was a free agent, and no team has matched restricted free agents.

Hawthorn and Geelong have supplanted them (for now).

They had three number 1 pics from 3 spoons. We never did that.

And I can't wait for the "see that's what you get when you tank" revisionists........

It appears the two biggest draft manipulators end up with the two worst lists!

There is something in that.

Numbers attached to young boys aren't as meaningful as many thought they were.

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm
