Oh Carlton. Never change.

I really don’t know where Kozzie ranks as a player across the league. But when he smells blood in the water. My god. That second half was something special.

Somebody bring me a thesaurus, I need some more superlatives to describe Kozzie’s performance.

Well done Demons! 👏

If you read the game day thread you'd think the exact opposite. I was gobsmacked by the amount of criticism he was getting.

Even in the first half he was our only one showing genuine skill and class.

Whoever had the idea to recruit Jack Steele (and for peanuts) deserves a raise. Alongside the disposals and clearances, 15 tackles. Hard to imagine what the midfield would be without him in there.

How f . . K I N good

What was the Melbourne crowd like? I couldn't be there today but definitely scared some of my neighbours.

We were raucous and thoroughly enjoyed the comeback. Belted out grand old flag at the end. Just a great day at the G

Found a way.

Off to the Carlton board i go..

I take no pleasure in schadenfreude unless it’s filth related.

Thought Culley had an under the radar really good game

Good happens when he touches it

Weirdly the Carlton fans around me didn’t seem that disappointed, or shocked. They just seemed mildly annoyed it was happening again, and sure as hell weren’t sticking around until the siren.

Can’t have scared your neighbours more than we did on a Sunday afternoon in Brisbane!!!! 😂

Wow. My voice is gone. Went from one of the worst days at the footy to the best! Our midfield was non existent in the first quarter and then dominated completely after half time!

One of Sparrows best games. Huge for his confidence

Patrick Cripps shoved Kolt to the ground after a decent goal, totally unnecessary! Always a folly to crow early, but I hope sometime Kolt reminds him of the final result. I enjoyed the Kama..

Pretty sure he had 11 tackles to half time, when it was going belly up. He dug in in that first half.

St Kilda are fools for letting him go. He just gives his all. We’re lucky to have him.

Contract extension?

CJ and Petty are my two worries. Otherwise I could say great things about the rest of the team. Steele, Kossie, Sparrow, Langford, Lever and the Captain are particular performance highlights of the game for me... Go Dees, and suck it Blues 😄

Team of clutch!

So bloody proud of the boys! Well done Kingy and co 👏👏

Jack Steele and Kozzie Pickett absolutely huge in the last quarter

And Sparrow

My neighbours in Ipswich said they knew Melbourne had won, when we beat Geelong last Rd of 2021!!

If this happened a year ago I doubt we would have come back.

I don't know what king says but they must listen & believe.

I was starting to regret buying max gawn 250 merch but not now

Gameday thread is a place to vent akin to shouting at the tv. Not useful, insightful and rarely represents reality but can be cathartic to release frustration (kinda useful then I guess). Not sure why anyone reads anything else into it.

Absolutely incredible - was looking for a quick exit after the Blues kicked the first of the second, but ended up amongst the Demon Army in Q4.

Fantastic Melbourne support, by the way - Demon Army super loud, Carlton fans gave nothing.

Aside from Kossie - Langdon, Sharp and Sparrow were huge in the last: relentless.

GO THE MIGHTY DEMONS!!!

Got there at quarter time and thought that maybe I should have not bothered, but watching us fight our way back into the game and then dominate it, made it one of the best days at the footy in a few years.
