Aaron Hall had the most possessions for North and second most fantasy points of anyone in the game last week (behind only Tracc)… and got dropped.

Clarko clearly ‘going to the draft’.

He was putrid. Norf fans were calling for him to be dropped.

Big Joe!!!! 

If he turns up anything can happen. Blues should be worried!

FMD!!!

[Rab D Nesbitt 8,114]

Praying. The mother of all placebos. 

[Rab D Nesbitt 8,114]

Carlton should permanently go with the orange trim and socks. And get rid of the stupid big CFC monogram on the front while they're at it. It won't make me like them any more though.

14 for GWS is Toumpas timid and soft. 

[DemonWheels 998]

Feels like a pre-season game

We’ve been given permission from the AFL to have a drum in the cheer squad. I was all for it, but hearing Carlton’s drum has made me re-think things. It’s so annoying.

Ridiculous opening quarter. Can either of these teams defend? Great spectacle but this kind of gameplay falls apart in finals.

Yep. It’s why I don’t think either team can with it this year. Awful defending.

Phew. He's not that good.

[Ethan Tremblay 30,018]

Carlton players trying to be tough is one of my favourite things.

nice open game currently - easy to watch

[leave it to deever 17,451]

Big posters (goal)should be more than a point. There very hard to hit.

[dee-tox 4,835]

Lions tackle like they mean it. Should hold them in good stead.

Triangle?

[Ethan Tremblay 30,018]

I use to be completely against changing the game to 16 a side, however this season so far has me questioning my stance.

Carlton's defence is putrid.

 

As is the Blue centric umpiring - not just the frees paid but those not paid. Throws, HTB missed.

So we would need to get rid of Langdon and Hunter 🤔😮

Any updates on the poor person who had the accident at the ground?

[Sideshow Bob 2,243]

Just turned on the footy. What's with this putrid orange and almost black get up that Carlton are wearing?? It's awful.

A sneak preview of the nominated Demon Army drummer practising for the big game.

The orange is representing “Carlton Respects” which is an initiative that raises awareness for gender equality and prevention of violence against women. They have this match annually. They used to just wear orange socks for it but last year they introduced a special Carlton Respects guernsey.

Nothing that I’ve heard. The fact that this match went ahead as scheduled bodes well. Surely it would’ve been delayed or even postponed had she passed away.
