    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.

    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.

    • REPORT: Sydney

      A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?
