Carlton miss a point. Lons straight down and goal. That says it all. Cripps must be one of the most over rated players out there tonight.

If they gave a point for every throw he's the man

Anyone dreading next week when Carlton break their losing run?

Yeah probably

 

Two Main Teams the maggots idolise but have given up on favouring. They have now put away the whistle officially on Carlton and Essendon unless we are playing them.

Doubt it. He’s been a bit better over the last year – since they played him back for a few games last year.

Thought I heard a dodgy comment last night about him having an Eric–tion during a purple patch in the second quarter. Not sure how that went to air, if in fact I heard it correctly.


The Age has just published an article about the reported death threat on Michael Voss that got the Collingwood supporter a five year ban.

The text was:

“I’d like to report 23 missing persons and pre-emptively report the murder of Michael Voss.”

The article goes on to suggest that perhaps the AFL have over reacted.

Sending a "bogus" message to a "report abuse" line is perhaps worthy of censure but a five year ban?

Now it made sense. The Collingwood supporter was not a would-be criminal but a would-be comedian. It was not a death threat, but a nasty little attempted gag about Carlton’s 23 “missing” players and Voss’s presumably imminent sacking. So the question has to be asked: is a failed joke a reason to ban someone from attending a venue for five years?

The AFL’s statement said that abuse is abuse “regardless of the intent”. The same applies to the message against abuse. Good intent is not sufficient. Spray it around too loosely or patronise the public with “learning moments”, and the message is wasted. There’s only one [censored] who benefits from that

Old Dee, I've thought for quite a while, he's overrated full stop. Gets a fair bit of the ball but there's a lot of nothing disposals. Then we're told he's playing a sensational game.

Do we really think gold coast will get close to Collingwood tonight?

I tipped them trying to make up some ground and bloody hell everyone above me did to. Should be a cracking game, GC have a crazy amount of talent on their list.


Hardwick has the GC boys seriously wound up. Let’s see if they can keep the pies scoreless until half time.


Well played by McCrae for using his annual ‘sickness through the club’ card for this game.

  • 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.
