Not to lighten the mood or anything, but the Blues are looking a good chance to knock GWS off which might keep us in the 8. ?

GWS tanking?

Some very radical crazy moves by their coach with both Finlayson & Cameron playing in defence and they were already behind on the scoreboard so no, they aren't protecting a lead and there was more than a quarter to go.

Meh.... We arent going to do [censored] if we limp into finals. I'm over really giving a [censored]. 

The GWS v Dees game might break a record for most behinds in a game watching this...

GWS are soft (nowhere near as soft as us though).  Bet they get home in the last however.

We were fined half a mil for not tanking. Year in year out there's a scramble for the wooden spoon. Where's everyone else's fines?

GWS kick the first two goals of the last quarter. Only 3 points down 

Blues find all sorts of ways to choke games.

Regardless of the implications of a GWS win, I'll never get sick of watching Carlton lose.  Eases the pain of today ever so slightly.

Nice one Blues

That's really cost us. Giants have Adelaide, Melbourne and St Kilda.

Can't see us making it now. Today just shot ourselves in the foot big time.

You know its a bad year when your barracking for the Blues

Horrendously bad choke from carlton

GWS went from 2 goals 11 behinds to 6 goals 12 behinds in that last quarter - 200% more goals in the last quarter 

GWS did us a favor 

Hopefully they can stay in.

Will spare us the embarrassment, and begin the process of a serious review and a clean out of the chaff.

As usual the script of failure continues to get written by our club... other clubs take their opportunities we roll over... not sure what more motivation is needed for this group of players anymore.  Simple we need to beat Freo, Gws & Bombers & based on tonites form we want beat any of them

We're not too bad at that [censored] either Dazzle!

I am glad GW$ won. 
We deserve to fall out of the 8 on tonight performance 

Now we will see whether there is any pride in the place

If we don’t make it heads must roll

Too right. 

I just love teasing carlton...

If what you say is true, and I do not dispute it.

then there is a clear responsibility on the football department and selectors to get the side fit, mentally right, energised, and ready to play.   And not to play against a side that have had far longer Time to relax and prepare in place. Arguments should have been had with the AFL over this totally unfair or even playing field. 
 

out coached and out thought. Again. 
let alone playing a quarter and not scoring a goal!

Lions v Pies

Do we care?

Would be nice for some Magpie angst I suppose but they're looking rather safe

Watch Brisbane they kick to the danger zone 30m out. Surprise surprise hit the deck snap goal. We never do that alway to the pocket

The Boys from Old Fitzroy look good this Quarter 

Mitch Robinson on the same list as Toby Greene for the umps not to pay a free kick to. 

the teams in 7-13 really aren't set to compete this season

Fitzroy looking good. 
Maggots keeping magpies in it.
