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.

    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.

    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.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
