Roooos!

That was a gutsy win and probably the upset of the year given who they were playing and what was at stake.

Although you have to wonder where that's been aside from last week against the Pies.

Many of them saying this one's for Noble so you have to take that on face value as fair dinkum.

Zurhaar ... this bloke really punches above his weight when he's on.  Goldy was also super in that last quarter or so.  That No.1 draft pick did ok as well eh!

In the end you can have all the systems and styles you like.  To win these tight games against very good teams you have to bring the most important element for most of the four quarters.... great effort.

    Someone smart explain to me who we want to win out of Carlton and Geelong?

    I was hoping for a nil all draw but Geelong already scored so that’s not an option.

    Depends on how you think the Dee's will finish the season. If your thinking we will end well the blues as we can reclaim top spot. If your thinking we will finish bad the cats as Blues will be fighting for our top four spot. I'll just sit back and watch wishing we had at least 1 of these big forwards

    Blues, Swans and us. Must avoid Freo in Perth as will be hardest to win.

    We play them there soon and it could decide our fate.

    Very happy for North. Tigers shown to be the mid table outfit they are

    Zurharr. Off the rookie list. He is a beast

    We have done very well in finals in Perth this decade.  🙄

    He's put off contract talks until the end of the year.

    Would absolutely go after him.

    Curnow has Buddy level star about him

    not saying as good but he has it

  • Quote

    Curnow is a genuine star now.

    The noise level by Carlton supporters everytime they kick a goal is next level!

    You really have a thing against umpires it would appear.

    If we’d had umpiring in Adelaide like Collingwood did today, we’d have won by 80 points.

    How many years was he injured for? He still has huge upside as well. And to think we took Weid ahead of him.

    25yo and only played 75 games. Hasn’t had a good run at it since 2018 really. 4 games over 2020-2021. Not a fan of the blues but hard not to like his resilience

    Can't teach presence and swag. Unfortunately Weid won't ever have it

    I hope there were a bunch of our players watching the Roos game for a few reasons. For one I hope it would remind a few that it wasn't that long ago that these wins were what we experienced. I would also hope it reminds players to place value on the wins and don't take them for granted. Finally I would also hope that they get reminded that bad kicking is bad footy, we've missed some very getable chances this year and it has cost us, Richmond lost that off their kicking boots.

    Great for North, hilarious to watch.

    Need a headcount on the cats tonight. Seem to have more players on the field.

    • 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.
