How many years in a row has this happened, too?  When do the AFL stop gifting Carlton this game and actually give it to a team who could make it competitive?  

I know I'm going early as the Blues might make a come... nah, who am I kidding.

It’s Pathetic 

imagine if we had game 1 yearly during our dark days. 

Carlscum are gifted

    Richmond vs Carlton -  Game has started so my predictions are irrelevant.

    Collingwood vs Geelong - Pies by 27

    Adelaide vs Hawthorn -  Crows by 20

    Western Bulldogs  vs  Sydney  -   Swans by 15

    Brisbane vs West Coast - Coasters by 24 (But i really want Brissy to win, they should be quite good this year)

    St Kilda vs Gold Coast  -  Saints by 1

    GWS  vs  Essendon  -  Giants by 36

    Fremantle vs  North  -  Norf by 12

    As long as we win, the other results won't matter to me one bit tbh. Much as i suspect every other AFL supporter thinks.

    Look on the bright side... it could stop the Carlton membership run and give us a chance of getting somewhere near them.

    32-1 almost quarter time... another yawn fest

    Carlton should be banished to the 3:40 Sunday slot every week until they become an AFL club. What an anticlimactic start to the season

    Carlton before this game - "We will score more this year!"

    Carlton at the end of the first term of the first game of the year - Goalless.

    Don't change, Blues.

    They do it every year.  Hell, the Herald Sun spent weeks churning out article after article trying to talk them up.  I have no idea why they do it as everyone knows their team is pathetic.

    Carlton have absolutely no idea what to do with or without the ball.  The number of times a player looked surprised when the ball was coming in their direction was staggering.

    Poorly prepared, poorly coached and have definitely been reading their own press over the pre-season.

    You do recall Carlton were 6 goals up last year in the second quarter and Richmond only ran over them in the 4th

    And whilst we love our club many were saying similar about us getting QB for many years

    Wow the Blues have major fumbles and nerves. Curnow rubbish so far

    Curnow has to be one of the most over-hyped/rated players going around at the moment.

    Curnow will be another Jesaulenko in time and Carlton will be more than competitive including finals in 3/4 years.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
