Freo v Crows should be interesting. hard to pick 

You’d imagine Freo get it done at home but these games are ones the Crows need to win if they make finals

    Honestly, from what I can piece together without live coverage (ahhhh, Sydney life), it is a little embarrassing for Carlton to only be four/five goals up.

    I stand by my theory that Carlton continue to be in weak form to start the season and that has been balanced by very, very good personal form from Harry McKay. 3 goals and 4 contested marks in each game, and already 3 goals and 3 contested marks to half time against North.

    Voss and the Carlton planners would be absolutely thrilled to be clocking wins. That said... every Carlton opponent so far has remained winless this season. The Blues would want to get things working properly before they come up against opponents that aren't either in mental disarray, managing an awkward rebuild, or outright led by teenagers.

    Well, precedent set, when we play the pies we’ll just dish out 22 fines. Ridiculous.

    So in a critical period in an important match just put a couple of Ks on the table and belt an important star and double him up in pain. And don’t worry you won’t even give away a free downfield. Plenty of time to organise your defence. The AFL stinks

    Curnow on Pink is just unfair. Charlie is built like a brick you-know-what, and Pink looks like any redhead you just pulled off the street. How's he going to compete?

    The fix for a Carlton flag is so obviously on. The
    AFL got their wish with the Pies last year. It’s Carlton’s turn this year

    Can we start a gofundme to pay for all the open handed punch fines we’ll dish out on Kings Birthday?

    I’d happily contribute.

    I hope 21 of those fines is for gut punching Maynard, and the other one for gut punching Cox 

    What a joke the league has become

    8 goals from frees and 50’s to Blues.

    Sorry now 9 goals.

    This is a world record.

    The 5 year extension that Larkey signed last year must be feeling like a life sentence by now.

    The lack of pressure on the Carlton mids from North's mids is just embarrassing. Very much like a Melbourne game from c.2013 - I feel so happy we're not subjected to that any more.

    When is the heat going to come on Clarkson?

    Seriously, Neeld had much worse cattle at his disposal and he didn’t last 2 years. How long will this sociopath’s grace period be?

    You feel for North fans. Their team is hot garbage but the umps aren't helping one bit.

    This is unwatchable. As @Jaded No More said (above) it’s clearly Carlton’s turn for a premiership. It makes me sick that we can’t enjoy neutral matches like this.

    6 fifty-metre penalties now against North. At this point they should just go for the record.

    I definitely do. Hating on a club like North is one thing, but their fans, especially young fans, don’t deserve this.

    It’s why the AFL for me has become unbearable to watch. If the Dees weren’t in it, I would’ve (and just about have) given it away years ago. It has become so business driven, and what is best for that business to succeed, that the football aspect has been neglected for some time now.

    Grass roots local footy is so much purer and more enjoyable to witness. Go and get yourself a team to follow outside of the national/state leagues. It is way more fun to watch and be a part of. You feel like you’re part of a real community.

    • 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.
