Carlton kissed on the [censored] yet again. Could win the flag on luck. Everything is falling their way.

    What a disappointing miss by Anderson. GC always find ways to lose.

    I’m glad I put $20 on Carlton to make top 4 after last week. Genuinely will need to drink myself to sleep if those cheating Carlton [censored] take our spot.

    Him and Sexton both had shots that should have been goals.

    Anderson was genuinely horrible in that game. Had he brought his usual contribution they’d have won by 3 goals.

    Yeah the Sexton miss was shocking.

    Another 4 point win on the siren to the AFL poster boys.

    #%#%# Carlton aka C.Curnow. Kicks 5 and then marks deep in Suns fwd line. ffs

    Dees better be on their game tomorrow or we're heading South to 5th. Carlton is on a roll. Everything is going right for them.

    That was Carlton’s banana peel. 

    They will blow GWS off the park now that they have the confidence and the lock into finals. 

    Do not count your chickens. We must beat Hawthorn tomorrow. 

    I said a week ago our entire season is on the line against Hawthorn

    Did GC tank today?

    That's the only way not playing Collins on Curnow from the get go makes any sense.

  • Quote

    Curnow has 33.11 in the last 8 games (ave of >4/game)

    Easily the best fwd in the game and the only one capable of kicking 100 goals imo

    Cool. 

    Hardly radical thinking though. Everyone expected Carlton to beat Gold Coas

    Curnow destroyed them

    He sure is good at beating up on the bottom teams eh!

    In case you missed it the goal that eventually won Carlton the game was off the back of one of the more blatant throws all season.

    Did not even rate a mention by the commentators.

    I swear i saw twice in the last 2-3 minutes that free kicks were paid against a Carlton player, when the player had the ball in his hands, and he just dropped it to the ground - no 50 paid. In each case out would have brought the GC player within about 15 m of the goals.

    • PREVIEW: Sydney

      The two teams competing at the MCG on Sunday afternoon have each traversed a long and arduous path since their previous encounter on a sweltering March evening in Sydney a season and a half ago. Both experienced periods of success at various times last year. The Demons ran out of steam in midseason while the Swans went on to narrowly miss the ultimate prize in the sport. Now, they find themselves outside of finals contention as the season approaches the halfway mark. The winner this week will remain in contact with the leading pack, while the loser may well find itself on a precipice, staring into the abyss. The current season has presented numerous challenges for most clubs, particularly those positioned in the middle tier. The Essendon experience in suffering a significant 91-point loss to the Bulldogs, just one week after defeating the Swans, may not be typical, but it illustrates the unpredictability of outcomes under the league’s present set up.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

      The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.
