I really hope the young Kangaroos can serve it up to the over hyped Blues today after what that grub Tom Elliot on 3AW said about us

Kangaroos will be in the game for half of it and then will drop off and get rolled.

North’s weakness is their backline, Carlton’s strength is their forward line = Easy win for Blues

Sure no fist, but it looked to me like he didn't hit him with his palm or fingers, but with the hard bone next to the wrist.  Can be as damaging as a fist if you get the swing right.

Karate chops can cause immense damage. No fist required.  
Gut punches/ belly taps have no place in the game.  They are NOT footy actions and never should be

No way was HQ having the Pies 0-4

Your constant conspiracy theorising is tiresome.

Also, probably not accurate here. How much media was generated by their 0-3 start? It was all over every paper and website. The more they lose, the more attention they get.

Totally agree.  Hipwood was terrible again and Joey couldnt mark a blackboard.

What is it with those two. Is it because they don't have to beat anyone else to get into the team. Where is their pride.

And number four maggot from pies running around trying to kick and maim wherever he can.

What's with the outfits these two teams are wearing??  If they'd both just worn their traditional jumpers, there would be no clash!  I just don't get it!  Aren't the teams proud of their jumpers any more??

Blues by 100 points. 

Jeez Carlton get the softest frees 

When Carlton kicked their first goal, they had 11 kicks, 10 handballs and 6 free kicks.

Curnow is the most blessed forward in the comp. Can’t breathe on him. 

free kicks for holds i50 the rule of the round

Wow. North are being crucified by the umpires. A clear holding the ball missed in the middle of the ground. 

I can’t deal with Curnow’s goal celebration. Every.Time.

Or McKay, apparently. 

At this rate Carlton will kick 15 goals from free kicks

Free Kick Carlton

they've all been there tho

If I was the brand manager at the Bulldogs I’d be calling the AFL and asking who approved this North jumper.

All I see is the dogs jumper.

One more soft free to Carlton and I’m going for a walk. That’ll show the AFL. 

Zurhar is a very selfish footballer. 

North are a mile off it

No they haven’t.

Its not a free when the back man touches his opponents side and the forward  holds his hand in.

It’s also not a free kick when the forward just throws one arm behind him and the umpire imagines it is being held.

Soft as butter some of their frees giving charity goals.

Wow, umpires not doing Norf any favours.
