     couple of upsets are on the cards

    I reckon the dogs will get up tonight.

    Carlton a real chance against GWS

    and the bombers are now without McGrath, Francis, Shiel, Hurley, Caldwell. but still should beat the Hawks

    First two agree, and i also agree with the other, but add Hawks could have their team of the Century playing TWSNBN and they wouldn't be "allowed" to win

    Bulldogs have to prove they can take on powerful clubs in hostile environments. Big game for them tonight.

    I Know its counterintuitive but huge Demonland support needed tonight for the Dogs. If they beat the cats then our earlier win against Dogs becomes a sort or 8 point game for the cats loss in chasing us, and sets up the end of year clash also as a true 8 point game for us.  I know it helps the dogs get closer to the Dees , but gives good separation for both of us from 3rd spot, then keeping at least second is in our own hands if we can beat the Power in a few weeks.

    Absolutely agree. It's totally irrelevant having separation from 1st to second but hugely important to have separation from third.

    Tipping 3 boil-overs this week in Dogs to beat Geelong, Carlton to beat GWS and Hawthorn to beat Essendon.

    Be fascinating to see how much ‘noise of affirmation’ 7,000 people can bring in Geelong, and the impact it has on the men in green.

    Also, I hate Geelong.

    How TF do Geelong keep staying top after 16 years?? They are Manchester Utd of the AFL

    Carey reckons Selwood is up there with the best captains of all time. My bollocks! He is a great player no doubt but how many flags has he won as captain?? Zero

    he walked into one of the most talented lists in history.

    This game is a challenge.

    Cats win puts us back on top but my wrath towards geelong has me confused.

    The ...cats...have won ninety out of their last 100 games at the cattery. Wow.

    But maybe going back to second place is what our team needs after most of them stank it up big time v the pies.

    But the cats with their firepower are a huge threat to the flag and we have shown we are not so beatable.

    Mmmmm.

    Hope to see a good game tonight. Gee conditions will be nice and cold sitting there in the crowd. 

    Hope the hawks can beat the bummers, giants blues will be interesting.

    Anyone know how many AFL teams train on the ground they play home games on?

    I’m guessing…

    Geelong
    Brisbane
    Suns
    GWS
    Eagles?
    Swans?

    Who am I missing?

    All this talk of protecting the head - the commentators seem to praise Selwood for “an ear massage”.

    So the VIC government are paranoid about having crowds at games. And when they finally do allow crowds they put 3,500 people on each wing with absolutely no social distancing.

    Makes perfect sense.

    Like everything we hear  “based on best medical science” - please explain. 
    Could easily have twice (or 3x)  the number with distancing.  But that would be far too logical and liberating.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
