This will be a percentage boost for WC despite the result

Sydney- a massive percentage boost lost. We somehow stay above them on the ladder which is a little bonus.

    Carlton shooting for their first ever Adelaide Oval win. Meanwhile we’ve just cracked 12 wins.

    Collingwood supporters and the media claiming they have the best NON SA team record, but I reckon 12 wins is better than 8.

    The thing is, Carlton is 0-7. 

    They’ve only played there 7 times. Ever. 

    We’ve played there 19 times. Almost three times as much. 

    How the [censored] does that happen?

    That’s because you can do simple maths. You are overestimating Pies fans here.

    I reckon Freo will get up. in good form abs defence solid

    I haven't done the maths but I'm guessing that a high scoring close game would see us stay top on %, at least until tonight.

    So we’ve played more in SA and in Geelong. Exactly where does Carlton play it’s away games… asking for a mate.

    I really don’t rate Carlton.

    Hold McKay and Curnow and they don’t have much.

    Cripps gets a bit of it but his disposal is ordinary

    It's a tough watch.
    Abit like watching us without Gawn, Petracca and Oliver.

    I must be on my own on this forum as there’s plenty of other posters who don’t rate Carlton.

    I seriously rate Carlton and have them in the current top 3 seedings.

    They have every position covered with star material all over the place. It starts with their “Steve May” (Weitering) down back and ends with the two best key fwds in the league.

    Unfortunately they also showed that they could handle the big MCG finals moments which will hold them in good stead in September.

    (Hope I’m wrong and they cop a loss today)

    Freo are about 13% higher than us right now.

    I suspect they stay ahead of us if they get the “W” in a low scoring affair.

    Pretty good effort on their behalf.

    Plus the AFL are desperate for them to win the flag. 
    They are in prime position to win it. They still have Walsh to come back too. 
    Definitely a big factor in the flag race for mine too.

    Yep. Good call about Walsh. Absolute gun.

    He got them over the line against us last year.

    That throw was disgustingly obvious from Cripps. Give them the flag now if that's what the umps are going to allow this year from Carlton.

    • 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.
