Late 2021 vibes about Carlton unfortunately.

Nah, Melbourne had 2018 before any success in finals.

Carlton hasn't played in finals for 10 years, unless the AFL is working something up with the umpires? 🤔

At least when we fell 40 points down late in 2021 it was to a preliminary finalist, not a currently bottom 4 side!

What happens when you don't put your best defender on the oppo's best forward and take too long to realise the mistake

The premiership race is so wide open this year it’s not even funny.

Can easily see Carlton winning the flag now.

Brisbane are hopeless at the G. Collingwood are looking wobbly, Port aren’t convincing. Who knows about us?

I don’t want them to win the flag, but an impartial observer would concede that they’re in the hunt.

Is this what you mean? I assume you're referring to Melbourne's late season form that year. The Blues will likely have to do it for one more game than Melbourne did. But yes, they're a very dangerous side and you'd be crazy to put them outside your top 3 form teams right now. They'd have to remain "up" for another 6 weeks though, after already being up for over 2 months.

Really need to dump the stand rule.

Such a massive advantage to the player with the ball with the umps taking far too long to call play on 90% of the time.

It's become a horrid eye sore that gifts the possession team too many cheap advantages and goals.

Charlie Cameron racially vilified last night at the footy by a supporter. Now being investigated. Honestly. It’s a disgrace.

At a Collingwood home game? I would never 🙄

Meanwhile it's business as usual at the Wind Tunnel (Casey) in our women's practice match vs Hawthorn. Dees are currently 6 goals 15 behinds vs Hawthorn just 6 behinds midway through the last quarter.

Biggest waste of money in AFL history are the Suns. Tassie should have their licence.

This an embarrassing capitulation and I expected nothing less 

This should be viewed as the Suns being dreadful rather than Carlton continuing on their winning ways, but the narrative won't reflect that.

Not that it matters for the Suns as they're just spinning their wheels until Hardwick gets there, as they have been for 10 years.

For a team with 900 first round draft picks they are useless.

"Mac Andrew takes his fourth intercept mark for the match - two more than any other player on the ground. He has now taken four intercept marks in four of his last five games." - AFL ap.

He would be nice cover for Petty up one end in a few years time.

If I was a Carlton supporter that sound effect after a Suns goal would drive me nuts .

 

Spare a thought for the Suns supporter who has to hear it a couple of times every week.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
