This week and next I'll be barracking for whatever combination of results see Carlton tipped out of the 8. 

They need to lose both games and Adelaide and GWS to win both games?

I’m worried about how flat Carlton are. Last week was a very hard game. I hope we don’t come out this flat. 

It won't make a difference if Carlton lose. Although a win for Gawn would be good.

A young team travelling after being up for two months is different than us on our home ground with two running changes. Plus we're fitter.

Is there a scenario Carlton can miss the 8?

Yes. 

They have to lose twice. Then requires some results to be precise because the chasing pack play each other a bit. Easiest option is for GWS to beat Essendon, St Kilda to win once, Dogs to win both games (ie beat Geelong next week), and then Sydney wins twice or wins once but makes up the percentage (about 5%).

We were 33 down to North two weeks ago. 

Don’t count chickens etc etc.

True but that was North. Gold Coast is miles ahead and made Brisbane look second rate three weeks ago.

Carlton's grand final was last week.

Adelaide can't overtake them ED14. All it might take is for St Kilda & Sydney to win one and GWS to win both, one of which is against Carlton. Then they could get tipped out on %.

Suns using the ball really well. working the ball into their f50 with ease

Looking to work it through the corridor by hand and foot wherever possible.

Contesting hard when they need to but also taking the gane on once they win the ball.

Great footy to watch

Choll, Whitts, Rowell, Miller & Flanders all very  good so far

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
