That was an embarrassing quarter of football. Expect Carlton to win by 50 plus

I can only hope Carlton used a lot of tickets in that term. Hopefully Suns reset.

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!

Hopefully Carlton burnt all their petrol tickets coming back.

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

How was that not holding the ball against nankervis then?

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 🙄

Gold Coast are putrid. Just [censored] themselves. 

And just like that we now have to win tomorrow  "not that we won't" 

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.

This an embarrassing capitulation and I expected nothing less 

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

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. 

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

 

Suns just need to grind here. 

Cripps throws the ball a lot.

"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.

Good to see The Tigers doing it for their retiring champions.

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