Kangas v Blues 

1. Carlton rely on Curnow and McKay. But they are seriously very good. 
2. Kangas youngsters are impressive.  Simpkin, Sheezel, LDU and they’ll add Wardlaw in next few weeks. 
3. Kangas poor goalkicking and Larkeys injury hurt their chances. 
4. Blues need Sam Walsh in. He’s run was missed and he will be a key to their premiership chances 

5. Umpires in 3rd quarter were horribly favouring Carlton. It killed North to see Blues get so many frees whilst they didn’t get one for the last 20 minutes in the 3rd. Best comment about the umps. No comment. 

I might be in the minority here, but Carlton haven’t proven anything yet. They’ve had a very soft draw and only just beat the Giants after a ridiculous free kick and just did enough against North.

Just wait until they play a genuine contender. Then we’ll see the real Carlton.

    Jackson did everything right then from the centre bounce, Tabener let him down.

    Izak wouldn’t have been born the year that song was kicking around.

    Good start Crows - 50-21

    Most of them choose songs that were released long before they were born. 
    Related: I’m glad Nick Murray’s not likely to kick a goal since his song is Thank God I’m A Country Boy. I’ve heard more John Denver in the past fortnight than I care to.

    Putting our pick aside, Freo are destined to finish bottom 4 playing this style. Longmuir needs to overhaul their system big time and we know how hard that is mid season.

    The only side they should beat is Hawthorn - I’d bet against every game.

    Adelaide’s pressure is excellent but gee Freo have looked bad so far. Jackson has had a couple of moments where he just misses having the quality midfield to give it off to.

    Sheesh…I didn’t think Freo were this bad. They got lucky with all the Weagles injuries last week. Jackson was really plodding half way through the second, is he carrying an injury?

    Are we seeing the Darren Burgess effect at the Crows.

    They are very fit and have a hard edge.

    Few Freo blokes have not enjoyed the heat of battle...

    Is anyone else kind of uncomfortable with the thought that the Crows might soon be good again? It just doesn't sit right with me, like having someone standing outside your window. They seem to be okay for 'regular players' and with a bit of star power as Izakermanis and co mature, they might become a genuine problem.

    Yeah could have used another year of mediocrity

    I’m on my deathbed thanks to finally being hit by the damn rona three years too late. But this Freo game is bringing me back to life baby.

    • 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.

    • 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.
