Pies are looking good.  Cripps and Curnow not as impressive as I expected.  Blues don’t look like scoring.  Still a long way to go in this game but Buckley looks safe....

The Blues are absolute poo.

Agree. Both teams look terrible, Collingwood less so

[Mazer Rackham 14,970]

really dull game with both teams coming away disappointed would be ideal

so far not too far off it

entertaining for the lol factor

pies up but anything to keep bucks in the job

[rjay 24,203]

Time to watch something else...this game is boring me.

...but some quick notes.

Dow is not ready for AFL.

Bolton is being out coached by Buckley.

Collingwood still can't kick to position but being made to look good.

Kreuzer not fit/Grundy BOG

Some of Blues young guns seem to be going backwards.

Who knows what the rules of this game are anymore? seem to change by the week...

Bolton in his last year.

Murphy not a captain.

[DemonWheels 980]

Terrible game to watch. 

Still can’t believe these two teams trouble us - we look a lot better than them - shouldn’t be getting Friday nights. We’re 10 goals better than both of them.

[daisycutter 28,730]

this is poo, think i'll watch nrl or com games

[Dee Zephyr 18,283]

At least the kegs are getting changed every 46 seconds.

[Engorged Onion 9,657]

I always hope for a Buckley loss...remember the time he wiped blood on Ling... unforgivable 

[biggestred 4,438]

Dees have had 3 friday night games in the last 4 seasons (inc port away this year)

How many have carlton had? Loads.

Have we won more games than they have in that time? Probably

Get [censored] afl

As enjoyable as it is seeing Carlton being flogged everytime they play on a Friday night, I’d rather watch a quality football game.

The dogs actually have a bigger case. Win a flag and get 1

Blues go bottom four and get  4 + opening thursday.

[Wiseblood 24,636]

Bucks is the Mark Waugh of the AFL.

Does absolutely nothing for 5-6 games in a row, then pulls something half decent out of the bag to give himself more time on the big stage.  Rinse and repeat.  

I mean, it's good for football that Bucks is coaching the Pies as they'll never win anything with him, but he's terrific at winning that one game that keeps him in a job for 10 more weeks.

agreed

terrible game of football on the first friday night of winter

and carlton have THREE MORE to come this year

bt was trying to talk up the crowd earlier, saying it was in excess of 70k - is it?

[Old Bear 388]

Glad we lost Kruser cup he is terrible

kicks go in the air allowing opposition to close

most of his handballs are hospital jobs

like to have Dunn back

Shocking game. No excitement to it, two mediocre teams. Total rubbish

Calling SWYL.

Two of the big four (or five) Victorian clubs. Collingwood arguably the biggest sporting club in Australia. By your mid 80s thinking Channel 7 desperately want this as a Friday night  game to support the established clubs and because clubs gave so many fans.

I. Don't. Think so.

Boring with a capital b and the ratings will reflect that fact. Advertisers pay big money for prime time slots. Do you think they would be happy with this rubbish and ratings?

Skills atrocious, maybe the afl need to give them more Friday night games ? 

Wouldn't bother watching the carp between 2 pretenders on Friday prime time TV.

No interest in these greedy clubs.

Principle has to stand for something.

Don't watch the greedy hog clubs, when they do not deserve prime time tv.

[Winners at last 4,961]

Deplorable match. The only upside was that I put money on the filth... Hard to see Carlton winning more than a couple of matches this year. They're terrible.

[Call Me What You Will 719]

Went as a neutral tonight. Wow! What a shocking game. Blowtorch must be on Bolton soon. Bucks buys another month. Sadly, I suspect we must have been this bad 6 years ago.

Rule of the week, holding and blocking. Brown will be payed a heap.

Usually we don't get within cooeey of him. 

[What 18,810]

Once upon a time these were the two most powerful clubs in the league.

Now they are basically irrelevant.   They have no right to be playing on a Friday night.
