They could possibly do this if Carlton decides they’ve had enough 

GWS are going to throw the kitchen sink at Carlton… would be very bad if a certain full forward got injured in the next 30 minutes.

The karma bus hit the AFL. Stopped, and backed back over the AFL. The AFL would have had their final round drama if the Keays goal had been awarded. And the reason it wasn't awarded is

I hope Essendon back Dodoro and keep him in for decades to come.

Carlton's best is very good, but their worst is horrible. 

Carlton of 2023 is Melbourne of 2018. If they're lucky they get to skip their 2019, but even so they'll still need some experience and no pandemic to come good next year.

Toby Bedford is having such a good year. I wish we could have kept him.

He looks like he had a good weights session over the pre-season, looks much stronger this year.

Yes I was sorry to see Toby leave, but IMO Chin is a better player for the team and structure.

I'm low-key rapt the Doggies are out of the finals now too.

We were even after the prelim of 2021, and in fact I recall the dogs were favourites.

Fast forward 2 years and they really need to re-examine what they're doing. I think it starts at the top and they need to get rid of Luke Beveridge. Nothing against him and nothing against the dogs, but he's been there a long time and has a coaching style that wears thin after all the tricks have been used.

Interesting offseason for them (yes I'm aware this isn't the kennel but I have opinions about the dogs).

Carlton have gotten a bunch of so-called "A-graders" back in the past couple of weeks but have lost a lot of their magic edge. Very close to 3 losses in a row.

I hope for Carlton's sake that Michael Voss takes a microscope to the last 3 weeks and identifies which of the big names should play VFL until they can bring what the lesser lights are able to do with such good success for the past 10 weeks.

What’s his coaching style @Chook?

    POSTGAME: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    PREGAME: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    After two disappointing back to back losses the Demons have the bye in Round 14 and then face perennial cellar dweller North Melbourne at the MCG on Saturday night in Round 15. Who comes in and who goes out?
