NON-MFC: Round 22

[DubDee 26,306]

Sam Mitchell has the makings of a coaching genius

[Flowergirl 539]

If Carlton, Collingwood and Essendon all don't make finals, I will feel much better about this season.

[DubDee 26,306]

Carlton’s dynasty has died before it even started! 

lol

[Rab D Nesbitt 8,774]

Poor old Carlton. Said nobody ever. 

[Rab D Nesbitt 8,774]

Richmond home game at Marvel whilst Marvel tenant Carlton play a home game at the G. Marvel is where we'd be playing if we brought our Alice Springs game home. 

[Bring-Back-Powell 15,255]

BT just mentioned that the crowd number at Marvel is impressive.

Does he realise half the top level is closed and the other half isn’t even full?

Woudn’t be much more than our 17K of last night.

I’d be more than delighted if we played a home game at Marvel instead of Alice Springs.

This is how you play running attacking football Goodwin and Taylor are you watching?

[BDA 23,017]

Carlton have been torched today. And looks like they'll be out of the 8 to boot.

Great to see

[DubDee 26,306]

Looking at the fixture, the Hawks and Carlton will make finals. Unless a team with 14 wins doesn’t make it

The Dogs could miss if they lose today

Crazy tight

We had zero chance even if we won last night

[BDA 23,017]

you know its not Carltons day when Cripps gets pinged for a throw

[Ethan Tremblay 31,243]

If Carlton don’t make the finals, that’s gotta be one of the biggest chokes of all time. To miss with that list would be harder than making the finals.

And get so many people keep bagging goody despite his valiant efforts with a list which, this season, has been decimated.

Exactly this. 
One of if not the best spine in the league. A graders on every line. 
To not even make the 8, when their best players have been mostly healthy all season, is absolutely the worst underachievement of the season.

I'd be happy to have an extra game I could attend too BBP. As most of our supporter base prefer to watch us on TV however perhaps it's better we pocket the $800k.

Wow just saw the score.

What the hell, gee hasn't mitchell turned hawthorn around.

And what is scary is that if the Hawks get into the 8 they can go a long way. This is the greatest  “gap year” we have seen for years. There is hardly a team in the 8 this year that is in form and deserving of a premiership. They all have significant weaknesses. I thought Sydney were the real deal but they’ve dropped away, Carlton, Geelong, Port, Freo aren’t great sides. Maybe the Dogs have finally clicked and with Brisbane are genuine, inform contenders.

Hawks will win their 2 games aginst tiges and North

Carlton play Eagles next week. I don't fancy them to win that at all and especially if Curnow is injured. I don't know who falls out of the 8 so they get in. I reckon they're cooked.

I only saw the last quarter and a bit EH but they were giving me Dees 1987 finals vibes as they couldn't do a thing wrong. Like when we steamrolled North and Sydney at the G in consecutive weeks. 

[Rab D Nesbitt 8,774]

Carlton, Collingwood and Essendon to finish 9th, 10th & 11th. AFL might have to extend Wildcard Round to 12 teams. 

[Sir Why You Little 37,308]

Haw will have a serious crack at Finals this year 

Going for their 14th

i will be nauseous and very surly
