With the amount of rubbish I’ve dumped on Collingwood and Carlton friends I really need a Demon win.

Oh me too! I’ve really let my Pies and Blues friends/ family know about it. Hope I don’t live to regret this come Sunday afternoon 🙏

I was ready to go bang on Yze after 15 minutes in this game but thought, wait on let's just see what happens. Good thing I did - guess I'm maturing slightly.

Also ..I don’t like Richmond but compare the celebrations of their young players compared to Hawthorn.. I automatically loathed Hawks more because of the arrogance & the “me me” celebrations.

How great is it to see both Collingwood and Carlton lose. Carlton season over already. Voss will be the first coach sacked.

P Cripps...................3 votes 😁

I thought this very thing. I know he got the pill a bit but I hardly noticed him. 

I'm off to Carlton Bigfooty folks.

meanwhile . . . over at big footy:

1. In the last 15 years, we've spent seasons at the bottom of the ladder with Richmond, Brisbane, and Melbourne, trading wooden spoons with them. Since then, Brisbane have a flag, Melbourne have a flag, and Richmond have three. Now Richmond are rebuilding again and may well beat us to the next flag. We've become a St Kilda-level basket case.
2. Last 2 premiership season games the CFC have dished up the embarrassing 60-0 v Brisbane just before half time EF. And now conceding 12 of the last 14 goals to the wooden spooners .

In fairness to Carlton they probably won on expected scores….

Took me only one page to find my the best comment so far.

And as if the news couldn't get any better for us, remember this:

In 2024, Carlton traded its 2025 Round 1 selection and 2025 Round 2 selection to Hawthorn for its 2024 Round 1 selection in the 2024 and 2025 AFL Drafts respectively.

Loved it, several things stood out:

3 debut games - that is hopefully a good omen for us, well done to RFC on recruiting.

Great for Yze after KC being a duckbit during the week.

TDK has all the tools but desire, Jacob W has also gone soft, played for frees as did many of his team mates, I cannot believe VOSS coaches that.

Richmond 33 don't know who he is but he annoyed the hell out of Cripps, now have a soft spot for him despite the ridiculous headband.

Goal kicking is good football.

I hate Carlton...

They did. Yze mentioned it in his presser.

baggers had half as many again as tigs' inside 50s - 60 to 40

13 goals 4 - making the most of the opportunities is the key to winning games of footy

I couldn’t remember during the game, so I was calling him “ tall angry Andre Agassi”.

ButI think it’s McIntosh.

I don't know about scores but they were certainly expected to win.

 

It’s been a good start to the year so far. 

Swans and pies last week – fantastic.

Blues this week – hilarious.

Hopefully Essendon and Geelong keep the smiles coming.

And I wouldn’t complain if the swans and pies do it again.

Ruined my footy tipping, but it was worth it.  And a decent game to watch too to start the season.

Probably not. 99.999% of people would have tipped Carlton not taking into account any Richmond nuffies who never tip against their teams. If you have a comp stacked with them you’ll make it up very soon. 

Yes I’m doubling down.

Daniel Hoyne said on Monday that 4 of the last 5 premierships were won by teams that were top three in ball movement. By that he meant their goals emanated largely from their half back line. The inside 50 count was not a factor. 

Our 2021 premiership was the exception.

I didn't hear that, though he talked it about it last year as emerging trend (was 3 of 4 then).

I would be be very surprised if he said the inside 50 count was not a factor.

OK so I know people aren't fans of hawthorn here, but may they do the job on the bummers tonight.

Goes to show how much stock coaching staff put into expected score, that Richmond have one of their greatest ever wins and the coach still mentions that they got done on expected score.

From 'The Age' just now:

Collingwood premiership star Brayden Maynard was involved in a car accident on Thursday morning.

The Magpies said no one was injured in what football boss Charlie Gardiner described as “an unfortunate accident” involving another car.

Sounds like he drives in much the same manner as he plays football, except he didn't injure anybody this time.  "Unfortunate accident", hey?

And in a Lexus if you don’t mind. lol.!!!
