The misuse of this word, especially when describing footy players, is so irritating. I’m assuming they mean “lackadaisical”?

 

Lions much better than Carlton tonight. They've beaten them in all areas. Hard to see Carlton making top 4 based on this game.

Intensity at, over and around the ball missing.  No run.

When they haven't got the pill it's very much the same.  Pressure is way off.

Blues have regressed so far this season


Lions are a much harder team this year. they're right in the mix to win the flag

How bad must be the Eagles be if Carlton is dishing up this 💩 tonight.

And on a totally unrelated note I had no idea we had the best % in the comp.

Totally agree. Definitely will be in the top four at season’s end

 

Carlton footy club is the very definition of meh.  I feel absolutely nothing for them.

Before round 1, I picked Carlton for 9th. Apart from Weitering, their defence is full of NQR's. If they can't stop Hipwood (who I once rated but now consider him less than average) they won't stop many good scoring teams.

nonchalant, relaxed, casual, cool...

I feel like Hipwood gets off the chain 3-4 times a year because their forward line is stacked with potentially damaging players. In an ordinary side I reckon he’d struggle.

Have to say Harry McKay is one of the laziest forwards, just watch how far he trails behind people when the opposition has the ball, and even when the contest is near, he is a witches hat! 

Also Carlton are too scared to take a risk into the corridor, everything is out wide and down the wings, and Brisbane are just waiting, dumb football.

Maybe Carlton won't make the finals.

Oh the irony of them missing by half a game after their draw with Tigers.

Well it is a big word, even though it was not the appropriate one - lackadaisical

Carlton aren't physical enough to match Brisbane. 

 

 

 

 

 

Bruise free perhaps

Carlton need a coach. Voss might have been a great player but he is not a coach.

Voss, Hird, Buckley in the same boat.


At the ground with a Blues supporting mate.

Saad is clueless, deer in headlights stuff. Blues defence sloppy and lazy (mids not getting back fast enough). McKay is useless once the ball hits the deck.

Their movement out of the backline is constantly to the flanks and wings (where have I seen that before).

Don’t know if Lions are good enough for a serious tilt, but Carlton sure ain’t.

Carlton will be out of the eight by the end of this round and I can not see them getting back in. I just [censored] because I changed my tip from The Lions to the Blues just before the game started

Ikr, my gut had picked Lions.  I'm running the tips for myself and a friend, and she asked if it was smart going against the betting odds in favour for Carlton.  Changed us both to the blues and the regret is strong 😂

Richo is really just about as dumb as BT - the entire commentary is moronic bloke banter.  Unfortunately this season I have been unable to sync digital, direct or AFL app radio commentary.

"If Carlton get a goal they will be 27 points down - they are now 33 down, BT".  WOW.


 

I take it back when I said we should have gone for McKay. Curnow is the star in that fwd line.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

  • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
