NON-MFC: Rd 08 2023

Featured Replies

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?

Best part of the game?  Hearing that Carlscum supporters began leaving the ground at 3/4 time

 

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

seemed to be a lot of empty seats. blues just broke their membership record so where were they?


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.

Hahaha 🤣 

Roaming Brian is seriously bloody good tonight!

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

Edited by Demon Disciple

 

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.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.
