    Mason Cox has shot up the charts this year and easily sits in my top 10 most disliked players in the league

    How was that not a 50m?

    He knew it was a HTB, Collingwood play with a different set of rules.

    Watching it a mate’s house with heaps of  people. The crowd is split 50/50 Pies Blues and going nuts. I’m loving it.

    Carlton fans are the best booers in the competition, and there’s a lot of teams vying for top spot.

    I reckon Collingwood are worse than Carlton in the booing department.

    Quick to condemn Pendlebury being booed upon winning the Anzac Day medal but only too happy to boo Oliver for winning the QBDay medal.

    Take offence for Ginnivan being booed but are happy to boo Langdon just a week earlier.

    The quarter finishes, they're having a good boo!

    Both teams would think it is about them.

    Perhaps they think a whip is better than a reward. 

    It a boo-a-thon!

    Carlton looking bog ordinary. They look like they are not handling the spotlight of a finals-like game. Can't mark, can't kick and decision making really off. If they settle, it might be a good game. Otherwise...

    They'll be told at 1/4 time huddle bulldogs won so we'll see if they lift.

    3/4 time 1987 R 22 John Sell told the players the Hawks were home.

    It certainly helped.

    If you kick the ball over the boundary line on purpose.ie insufficient intent or a player who deliberately walks across the boundary with ball in hand...then why isn't it a free against a player who walks across the line when tackled?

    It's kind of like a get out of jail free.

    Mason Cox has form with that knee as a weapon in ruck contests. 

    Carlton's delivery into the forward line isn't very good despite having 2 60 goal forwards in it - which shows it's not your forwards as much as your mids delivering it in, and the pressure they're under when they do it.

    Jason Dunstall won that game for them at Kardinia Park (i think)

    Allegedly  dees bought him loads of booze and pizza. ..maybe  lol

     

    Does anyone know if its possible Carlton  can lose and still make the 8 on % as Bulldogs are now 8th with 0.1 % margin. Thats almost nothing.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
