It really is a pity we don't play them until round 22. Taking advantage on their complete folding like deck chairs in the second half would be sweet to watch.

Go swans!

General public seem to think so. Games are [censored] to watch and over umpired. May not be the full extent but its certainly right up there.

Their defence is super shaky.

16% drop in crowd number since 2019 if you take out covid. Blue supporters coming out of the wood work this year.

It's 20-8 free kick to Carlton. No wonder the game is an absolute mess and no one is turning up to games. Absolute [censored] show..

Looking at the way he grabbed it and winced pretty badly I think it's more then a month. Guy at his age will certainly take a while to get back.

I'd there was a time to trial Iaaac Heeney whether he can cut it as a midfielder you'd think it would be now. Getting smashed in the midfield.

Hamstring awareness usually means tightness

All over?

Lol.. You got sucked in by Knightmare like most have over the journey. That plonker lost all credibility when he he stated that Collingwood had a better draft haul then Melbourne in the 2019 draft period and said that Melbourne taking Jackson at 3 was a complete mistake. You also were pretty vocal leading into the draft in saying that Mac Andrew would not go inside the top the 10. You went quiet that night.. Whilst I stated that I personally didn't rate him even a top 15 prospect there was enough noise coming from actual draft experts like Cal Twomey that he was going to be a top 10 draftee regardless of of what people think. Clubs like Richmond, GWS, GC and St Kilda were heavily linked to him leading into the draft. Maybe their full time recruiters have no idea either? I couldn't give a [censored] Mac just fyi and was not fazed one bit we missed out. Means we were able to address a bigger need in bringing in a developing key forward. Just thinks it's laughable you're still finding ways to continually knock the kid.

I think so too. Their midfield and forward line is scary

Carlton supporters selling out tonight's game just shows we still have a long way to go. Certainly loud bunch.

Yeah nah. You're continually finding ways to sneak in little snide remarks still even months on. Funny you how you mention Howes and JVR being in the same Academy game but also didn't mention they too had quiet ordinary games as well. Sneaky that you left that part out.. Kid lives rent free in your head.

Bugger.. He was fun to watch. Really hope he's not lost to the game and we see him in some working capacity mentoring young indigenous footballers if that's the path he wants to choose.

All the Brayshaw siblings are extremely close. This has been well publicised and confirmed by Angus in the past.

Because if you haven't noticed old timer this is a football forum related to all football discussions.

Sure about that..?

That's actually not even the point I'm trying to make 'Fus'

Good to see not much has changed with you 'Jack' in the months that have gone by since the draft period..

I like Tom Browne. When he has explosive news like this I tend to stand up and take note. [censored] the haters Tommy boy.

I knew you'd be waiting so I said it.

But isn't that the perfect opportunity for Bedford to come in and try and stake his claim in the senior side starting this weekend? I mean would this also provide an opportunity to give Bailey Laurie a taste of AFL action? I would think that these are the games where you could easily accommodate for a Bedford or Laurie. While Harmes is out for a few weeks then this would have provided the perfect opportunity for Bedford. If it's not now then when does he get the opportunity when we are full strength again?? Sitting on the bench for another 6 games as a sub is probably the next closest thing he'll get to AFL action again now.

I've had worse. Melksham should be the absolute last resort of selection. The point of being selected when we have multiple injuries. He's well past it at nearly 31 years of age and not in the club's future plans. He shouldn't be in the team robbing games off Bedford who actually deserve to be rewarded for his consistency of form in the VFL but also the perfect opportunity to see what he has to offer at AFL level with a string of games while Harmes is off injured.

You've genuinely got to be [censored] kidding me right? We pick a bloke off the back of not playing last week being an emergency, over guys like Bedford who had the perfect opportunity to play consisten game time at AFL level. Even if it was Bailey Laurie to get a taste of AFL action. But no, we select a guy that's going to be 31 this year and we'll past his best at AFL level. Genuine [censored] selection and it's been obvious that Goody has been trying desperately hard to get his Essendon mate a game this past few weeks. Opportunity missed.
