    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.

    Rather like Druggies v Filth ANZAC, this became “traditional” after about one or two years.

    Bruce - "it was Carlton's lowest ever 1st quarter score vs Richmond if you can believe it"

    They scored one behind. I mean Bruce there's only one other possible answer is there...

    Having a bit of an analytical look at the game...

    The Tiges really struggle to get clean ball from centre clearances.

    If they can't sort it out they're not winning a flag this year...

    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.

    Your predictions are irrelevant whether the game has started or not, who cares.

    Another Tom Scully. Runs hard but absolutely butchers it.

    Interesting to watch a couple of their kids 'dazz'

    Will be good players but nowhere near the class of Oliver.

    Walsh is struggling with the pressure of the game and will settle.

    Oliver took to it like a duck to water, plenty of time from game one...

    Tigers went into sleep mode during that quarter. Only reason why carlscum are " in it " Bump on revolt was nothing.

    I can see a fair few Tigers getting poleaxed this season. Their manic 'go forward' running leaves little room for awareness. A couple of times they've been hit solidly, it'll only takes some better timing to clean someone up.

    Love having the Blues open every season.  Such an exciting competitive team full of guns.

    Give them every Friday night too.

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

    Thanks for that Jezza

    Rance is a diving pansy. 

    Twice he had normal contact and fell over like a weak [censored]. Then the umps fell for it! 

    Blatent dives that he should be fined for but nothing will happen! Infuriating

    I'd love someone like Jack Higgins in our forward line.  Little ripper of a player.

    There is certainly room Wise, lets hope someone stands up.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
