Carlton players seem to be allowed to dispute just about every time they get a free against them - I remember that got 7 goals from 50s against us last preseason (which was excessively overzealous I admit) but they get away with murder.

    Love the vision of all the Carlton mongs in the crowd frothing at the mouth.

    I’ve still got Carlton at 9th this year, but in a reverse of last year they might have to win the last few to clinch it.

    They got pummelled by 90 points. I thought he was one of the only players who looked able to control the ball. 

    C’mon man. He was atrocious defensively. I laughed at some of the non efforts/laziness he was playing with. If the Roos didn’t have to activate their sub, I reckon he would’ve been the one that would’ve been subbed.

    Gee they sure are getting into Voss on Twitter.

    Voss has to get the sack you can’t tell me Carlton have improved in 2 years, they suck

    Can anyone confirm the person who threw themselves off the balcony at Marvel Stadium wasn’t Michael Voss? #AFLBluesLions

    Michael Voss makes Nathan Buckley look like a combination of Norm Smith and Jock McHale #AFLBluesLions

    Call me stupid but Voss must be in a little trouble. They are no where near a top team and couldn’t want for a player on the list. Forget their win/loss at the minute they are nowhere #AFLBluesLions

    Harry Sharp for Brisbane kicks his first goal in league footy. 2 blokes come up to him for half hearted congratulations.

    JVR kicks his his first goal and 58 of his teammates come from all directions to celebrate and embrace the moment.

    What's Mitch Robinson holding up? A participation medal?

    I've got the volume off. What on earth is Mitch Robinson doing in the crowd with a Guernsey on?

    He can't quite retire yet?

    He's like Les McQueen from Creme Brulee

    It’s hard not to get seduced by the way Brisbane play their footy when their up and about and they have a very talented midfield and forward line.

    But, can anyone see them knocking off a Geelong or Collingwood at the MCG in a qual, prelim or GF?

    The entire team was atrocious defensively. It was just that the other 17 players also couldn’t find the footy. He’s far from a perfect footballer, but to single him out in the context of that performance seems wild to me.

    Perhaps Curnow and McKay will now realise that not every defence is as bad as WCE.   McKay in particular just looks like a spectator when he ant grab a mark.

    Think it was his 2015 Merrett-Murray medal  - club champion in a 4 way tie.

    Based on the broadcast and hearing from Luke Hodge (old team mate) - Mitch has played 100 games and been sacked by both teams so he gives the medal to the losing team when they play off.

    Does BT even realise Andrew Dunkley (father of Josh) was himself a very good reliable Swans defender with a lazy 217 games.  

    Thanks JB @jamesbrayshaw for the pickup as well

    Yep, they took off to order their Tassie jumpers.

    Carlton have not improved one iota since the departures of Teague and Bolts.

    Numerous top 10 picks, players traded in Cerra, Saad, Newman, Mcgovern, Pittonet etc.

    Same old 5hit on repeat from this club.

    Blues got a toxic supporter base went tonight and I’d hate to be a player for them, the crowd is so fast to turn on their own. Makes our meltdowns mid game look like a picnic

    They were definitely doing a lot of sooking. Some nongs behind were continually calling for 50 whenever a Lions player was following their opponent into the ‘encroachment area’ which they are allowed to do

    Carltons kicking was dreadful all night. In fact it was really bad. Their top line players like Walsh and Cripps are close to the worst offenders. If Brissy had kicked straight the it would have been close to 10 goals.

    Yep both of them are front runners like most in the baggers team. McKay in my view is a bit soft.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • 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.
