Can’t believe the Tigers are paying $10 to win against Carlton.

 

They should be $30

    Can’t stand how the media are froffing over Hawthorn after 1 game and treating 21, 22, 23 year olds as naive children, when in fact they are grown men. 

    The Nick Watson coddling and love fest in spite of the quiet game is nauseating. 

    Hopefully Essendon do us all a solid.

    If it’s all the same to you, how about we let the Hawks win this week and let Carlton do us all a solid next week coz Essendon 🤮

    My vote is for an all-in brawl between Hawthorn and Essendon after three spiteful scoreless quarters that makes the "Line in the sand" game look like a summer picnic.

    Outside of that, it could be a tough first couple of weeks for Dean Cox if the Lions get a hold of Sydney in their GF rematch.

    Preferring Carlton over Essendon?

    That's like having to choose whether to have your sh*t sandwich cut into squares or triangles.

    For me it’s like having to choose between a sh*t sandwich (cut any way) and a roast dinner. Again, coz Essendon.

    Besides, one can’t simply masquerade as a Carlton supporter for 20 years without having a lingering soft spot for them, now can one?

    I propose a compromise.

    Hawthorn beat Essendon, but only after things get very ugly and a few serious incidents reduce Essendon's bench. Two or three key Hawks get suspended (Sicily, obviously) and it is just the 'exciting''up and coming' 'carefree' kids who come up against Carlton the next week. The mature Carlton side with it's immensely strong key position stocks put on a clinic and Hawthorn miraculously drop out of the 8 despite having played an extra game. Patrick Cripps punches Ginnivan and is given a two week suspension, ruling him out of the Brownlow.

    In this scenario neither Essendon or Carlton are happy, but the Hawks really, really suffer. Best outcome.

    Wow, this round of football is packed with games of the least possible interest to me. Adelaide St Kilda? Bulldogs North? Gold Coast v West Coast? Even Essendon and Hawthorn I wouldn't worry about watching so much as just wanting to know the injuries and suspensions pile up.

    Apparently 80,000 tickets have been sold for Carlton’s open training session tomorrow night at the MCG.

    I think that is 80,000 for the game vs Richmond.

    Probably much lower than prior years Round 1.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
