So who is this big, in form team we’re supposed to beat?

Sydney? Nope. 

There are none, unless West Coast want to meet us down the park during the week everyone can shut the [censored] up.

    Does seem a silly fixture considering Carlton lost their last game to Sydney in Rnd 23 by 81pts with Buddy kicking more goals than Carlton. Melbourne were already clearly on the up last year.

    Afl are not the brightest bunch at times.

    $$$ for somewhere    Visy bags?

    Bolton is an absolute genius.  He has created a brand of footy that, most weeks, is able to pull down the opposition to their rubbish level.  They flood back, tackle hard and do anything to play boring, drab footy that might help them get a result.  Swans are playing right into their trap at the minute.

    The more upsets the better for us. I am sick of seeing the Swans in the finals. 

    My dream is seeing all of Sydney, Hawthorn, Geelong and West Coast miss the 8.

    Did BT just say carlton haven’t kicked more than 100 points in the last 43 games?!?! 

    Yep. While we’re getting bored scoring 300 in 2 games.

    *Melbourne smash blues to half time, narrative all about blues playing poor footy and Melbourne not beating anyone of note*

    *blues lead Sydney by a point at half time, narrative about how well blues are playing and Sydney are also an afl team playing tonight*

    I get that the media doesn’t trust us yet and that Sydney have been a champion team for years but what I don’t get is the hypocrisy. I guess it’s just anything for a story huh?

    Was Dale Thomas ever a good player? Struggling to remember but he's been [censored] for his whole time at Carlton.

    Before his ankle injury, he was a fantastic player. I know a Collingwood board member thought he would never play again when he left, giving an indication on how screwed he was.

    Such a high quality game they brains in commentary are discussing if everyone in the world has been winded...

     

    Dale Thomas was a gun in 09 an 10.

    Well we need to keep the swans % down, but what was a good 3 quarters by carlton to make it an interesting game has now blown out to a swans win and boring last quarter.

    Carlton kicked 4 points in a row at the start of the quarter. Most of them were getable.

    It's just been a regulation case of a crap team bringing a good one down to their level.  Carlton are awful, Sydney are starting to break the shackles.

    They are awful. This game plan is never going to win games. Playing kick to kick at halfback? I  still think there's been some crucial frees keeping them this close. Can see Sydney blowing them away in the last.

    Nice.

    To be fair if they could kick slightly better they’d be in front. Hahhahahahhaha suck it Blues!

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
