Apparently Hawks with 19 on the field during the 2nd quarter?

How does that happen in this day and age 🤔

Back on the day they'd have to have their score reset to zero at that point.

    The Hawks main vulnerability was stoppages inside 50, which they struggled to defend tonight even though Carlton have pretty average small forwards.

    Shows how important the mosquito fleet is in modern footy and why it’s important we get Pickett, Chandler, Henderson, Spargo and Sparrow all up and going and putting on high pressure in our forward line.

    I just still feel they lack a really good tall forward and their midfield depth can fall away pretty quickly. I wouldn't be surprised if the Giants beat them by 5+ goals next week.

    It’s in Tassie though.

    22 if you include the umpires.

    Yep. Still annoyed I had to downsize the studio… You are right in that there is so much that I had recorded that is simply not available anywhere anymore.

    I reckon it’s taken about 4 years for him and Ward to reach the required level.

    it didn’t really look like either would make it for awhile.
    It says a lot about development, instead of trashing and reselecting.

    Normally when I watch a non-Dees match I have a slight preference for one of the teams. However Hawthorn ... hate them .... Carlton ... hate them.

    I have now reached the stage where I hate pretty much every non-Dees team. In order, it's obviously the filth first, then daylight. 

    I didn't hate GC cos they were kind of pathetic. However the arrival of Hardwick as coach means I now hate them too.

    Hawthorn looking ok. Interested to see how they go against better sides, such as GWS (and us!). Until then I wouldn't pencil them in for anything significant.

    From their last eleven matches, Carlton have won two - North Melbourne and West Coast Eagles.

    At least their fans are taking it well.

    The dreaded expected score wins again 

    Looks like Carlton and the Dees are going to be top 4 on the expected score ladder this year....yay!

    Impressed with Hawthorn's ability to withstand a number of best 22 players being out. Signs of a quality team.

    Indeed.

    The Swans were unbackable flag favourites two games clear on top of the ladder halfway through last season.

    And that was just the reserves game.

    Anyone think the Dogs have a chance tonight?

    Their midfield looks poor without Treloar and Bont. And their defence is always average

  • Quote

    Would love to see the dogs get up. I know they've got their 100th anniversary match & that will be motivation but unfortunately the pies might be to good.

    Really hope I'm wrong.  Would love to see the dogs win

    After 30 years of Cheating and giving the rest of the Competition the middle finger (“We are Carlton, F$&@ the Rest”) They are reaping the rewards of such behavior…

    Pies on Friday night, Dees 3.20pm Sunday again. Wow, so surprised - NOT.

    Pies should win well tonight, with the Dogs playing a VFL team, but neither team looks potent and Bevo is cunning so I am hoping for an upset.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
