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 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.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
