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.

Haha rance 1on1 beaten what a surprise 

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

 

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

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

    The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.
