AFL Round 1 - Non MFC Games (2017)

[rjay 24,185]

Well it all kicks off again tomorrow night with the underwhelming Carlton v Richmond clash at the MCG.

Can't see either of these clubs getting out of the bottom 6 myself...

A lot of support coming for Richmond but personally I wouldn't be surprised to see Carlton get up and that would really set the 'Dimmer' season off with a bang.

I think the Blues have a stronger midfield and if they can get on top there then anything can happen.

I like the look of Weitering (can we get in his ear), the 2nd coming of Pav and am interested in the debut of Sam P-S a classy young kid.

I guess it's a bit macabre but a Richmond loss and the accompanying fallout does appeal to me.

see the bummers are doing there walk to the G. They said not sure if Turd will show up. I bet he is there front and centre grinning with the bummers fans fawning over him. Hope the hawks thrash them.

Richmond losing tonite would be wonderful. Also hope the bullies give collwood a hiding. Neither of these will happen though.

like that the comp starts with a game between traditional rivals... be better if it were between melbourne and st kilda at the G obviously...

While I hate supporting Carlscum, I would LOVE to see the Tigers get rolled tonight.  It would be glorious!

AFL 2017 starting of with possibly the worst game of the year class wise. Just look at the 2 lists....................................... vomit.

Lots of interest though, and i will be happy whoever loses.

Would be freaking hilarious.  Their supporters are already talking top 4 LOL

They better warm up their microwaves, they are no sure thing vs the Blues.

Terrible crowd so far.

Geeez 43 for the brown naggers pulled out of going back with the flight letting Martin take and easy mark in the lead.

Carlscum are rubbish. If they win it will only be because Richmond are Richmond. 

[Cards13 9,117]

Couldn't have 2 more contrasting thoughts on players.

Simpson, one player I really enjoy watching and would have loved to see in the Dees jumper.

Rance, one player I cannot stand to watch play the game. When it doesn't go his way he takes it out on others.

Armfield haircut remind me of a mid 90's toadfish from neighbours.

Reminds me of one of the "moles" from Romper Stomper.

Yes well im stuck at work, dont have a radio..... so ill keep trying...

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

Entertaining first quarter.

[Forest Demon 4,681]

Very open game. Richmond will win by 7 or 8 goals unless Carlton can somehow turn it into more of a scrap.

That Petrevski-Seton looks a good young player, seems to be in  the camera frame all the bloody time.

Thanks

I'm overseas and I thought they might have put a geo blocker on it... just ridiculous

Luckily it is not the most interesting game of the year... scores are 45-27 Tigers way

Old fashioned shoot out, tigers will win by 10 goals if they keep it that way 

[Demon Disciple 11,208]

don't know about that rat tail though

It's definitely having a bad night.

In a pinch, you can track scores/stats at http://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/live_stats?mid=9307

Atrocious defensive game so far. I'm ashamed that we lost to Carlton last year. Makes it hard to sledge Carlton fans.
