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

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

Blues have regressed so far this season

This is why they need to have some small degree of success. Maybe losing an elimination final. Just enough to keep Voss in the job for years on end. Imagine what a good coach could do with that list.

My brother is a big Carlton fan. He went to the match today with his 7 year old son. They had the following exchange:

Son: ā€œI think this is the worst game of football I have ever seenā€

Father: ā€œIt’s definitely the most frustratingā€

Son: ā€œEvery game I’ve ever watched is frustratingā€

Father ā€œIt’s the curse of being a Carlton supporter, mateā€

I am so glad kids growing up these days watching the Dees don’t need to go through that anymore.

I feel a bit sorry for the kid. Only to a point. Imagine the gloating and rubbing noses in it if they have some success. It's crucial that they waste their talented list and spend another generation in the wilderness.

Those kids deserve better..better organisations like the MFC.

Quote of the night

BT - ā€œMitch Robinson the only player to play 100 games for both clubs.ā€

Hodge - ā€œAlso the only player to be sacked from both clubs.ā€

I think Fev did to but seriously he sat in the crowd with both jumpers on with a medal. Honestly.Ā 


Oh andf if I hear anyone complain about there team or any young child, you have nothng to complain about until you have sat at a ground and watched your team get beaten by 186 points.Ā

Fev played 187 games for Carlton, but only 17 for Brisbane.

but got sacked by both


War drums wont be out yet but Voss better get a move on. He wanted the job.

Apparently Carlton supporters did leaveĀ  en masse before and at the end of 3rd qtr. Players also copped boo's, Charming!Ā  Real troopers that lot. lol.

Pies fans would never leaveĀ  before 3qtr time even if 40 points down.

Theyre just getting warmed up.

To be fair most players get sacked. Very few get to leave on their own terms.Ā

It's a risk, but often a necessary one, to appoint an unproven coach. It's a leap of faith to appoint a coach proven to have no success.

I can understand recycling Ross Lyon. He took two clubs to grand finals, and but for one bounce of a ball .... whereas Voss, who .... erm ... lemme think ... he, um, well, he .... errrrr ... what's for lunch?

Let's not let the schadenfreude tempt us into lionising Collingwood. They're still Collingwood no matter the circumstance.

It was Carlton who got lionised last night, not Collingwood.

I can just imagine behind the scenes now, although the renovations at "Taxpayer Park" are not complete, there will be quite conversations with various government agencies regarding putting a roof over their non-AFL ground. Going by todays weather there will be some very cold farmers down there. Well they can leave early to milk the cows. Would love to see Adelaide win as my hatred of Geebung is only 2nd to the druggies.

These days it’s called delisting. Players only get sacked for committing serious outrages, some of which are publicly known but most are swept under the carpet.Ā

Exactly. Ā Cripps Cheated the system. Ā 
And I cannot understand why the maggots love him when he argues every decision and more particularly every non decision. Ā 

Looks like Richmond are playing in an empty MCG.Ā  Last week they had the excuse the game was at Marvel.Ā  This week no excuse at all.Ā 

100,000+ members.

More microwaved membership cards.Ā Ā  Or deleted Richmond FC app!!

They’ll say it’s cold. And it is. It feels like 2 degrees and it’s wet. But if I hear one more media commentator complaining about attendance at a Melbourne game while completely ignoring attendance at games of the big clubs, I’ll spew.Ā 
The reality is that everyone is struggling financially. Going to games isn’t cheap even if you have a membership. When your team is slop and the weather is horrible, you make those choices. Let’s see how many people rock up to watch Tasmania in the dead of winter once the shine has disappeared and they’re on the bottom.Ā 

Richmond’s skill out of the back is Melbournesque 08-09, 12-13.

Crows going with cats at q1

Feel a bit sorry for Andrew Gaff. Could've played in a VFL premiership with us last year if he hadn't belted Andy Brayshaw in the gob.Ā

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom CampbellĀ with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprenticeĀ Will VerrallĀ who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
