I said on here last week Carlton would beat Geelong. Thought with Stewart out it would help Curnow.

Also thought there younger players would be quicker

    No Stewart, Henry or Kolodjashnij. It's rather undermanned back there.

    From Easter last year they only conceded 90+ twice. They've already conceded 90+ twice in two games this year.

    Ohhhhh yup true. Henry and Kolodjashnij in at least and this is a different game.

    Carltons bottom 10 players are VFL standard.

    Some good high end talent.

    Geelong are looking old...without Cameron & playing a better opposition they would have been smashed.

    I could happily watch Carlton be irrelevant for another 20 years Wodja. 

    Prefer to see the cats in that predicament and I hate Carlton

    Saad is like a small version of Sam Frost. Runs off half back like a hyperactive nuffy, with no idea where he's going half the time. Most times he turns the ball over and the occasional time he'll create a score by taking the game on. He's a liability for mine.

    But then we had posters on here complaining that we got rid of Frost, so what would I know?

    Also, why was Michael Voss crying? Calm down mate, you haven't won the flag.

    Geelong were hopeless tonite. Carlton should have won by 40 to 50 points. Dreadful footy.

    A fair comparison 'A F', the only difference is that Sam didn't mind body contact.

    ...but back to Saad, he tried hard to lose them the game.

    He doesn't seem to have the best agility either. There were a few moments where Stengle showed him a clean set of heels.

    When do we get worried about Carlton being half decent? 

    When they become half decent. Still playing on emotion (both positive and negative emotions). Voss hasn’t taught a game style that is reliable. Plus they are extremely shaky in defence.

    When they get a game plan that actually plays to their strengths which is clearly McKay and Curnow. 


    Their ball movement is shambolic at best and idiotic at worse. I know Walsh out really hurts them because he gives them so much first use at clearances, but FMD they have some horrific ball users and decision makers.

    Any team under the average age of 98 and with any sort of fitness would have run them into the ground in that last quarter. 
    They look spent 2 games in. Fair enough Geelong coming off a short pre season at their age, but what is Carlton’s excuse? They didn’t even play finals!

    Their ball use looks like an electric toothbrush in a toaster at the best of times.

    Stengel is a smart player. I don't think Saad was the right match up but not sure they have anyone else with leg speed in their defensive half.

    On that subject Doherty looks to be struggling and Weitering had a shocker...

    Another on the Cats side Tuohy is getting caught out a lot...33yo and might have gone one too many.

    edit: I notice Saad had a heap of metres gained wonder how much came back with interest...

    I was there tonight, and it was hard to believe Geelong won the flag. Carlton weren’t much better and did their best to lose the game.

    For such a big guy McKay certainly likes to flap the arms, Plugger would've kicked 350 goals a year if a free was paid every time he got touched.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
