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

[Hellish Inferno 992]

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

[GCDee 3,199]

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

[Wiseblood 24,637]

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.

[Dee Zephyr 19,267]

I hope this kickstarts a comeback.

[Sir Why You Little 37,039]

Bolton has done nothing except talk for 3 years 

It staggers me he still keeps a job

[brendan 3,437]

Just goes to show JLT Form means jack [censored], Carlton actually looked pretty good in it

[whatwhat say what 22,763]

This is a massacre 

[buck_nekkid 5,862]

Are Richmond good, Carlton woeful, or both?

[dees189227 12,394]

There should have been 2 holding the ball decisions against Richmond there 

[Moonshadow 17,676]

Jeez, as bad as Carlton look, the umps have been very generous to Richmond

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

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

Yep, only good when he is able to zone off and be the 3rd man up. Make him accountable and he starts to look like OMAC...................................ok, maybe not quite

[Hobson 8]

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