I were Trac I'd be worried about the direction Carlton's heading in.

NON-MFC: Round 24
Just turned on the footy. Good result all up. Carlton either don't play finals or have to go to Brisbane in a knock-out game.

Suns had to leave the ground early to catch a flight home for the open top bus parade celebrating their 11 win season.

Should have the wooden spoon they've just won on show with the three cups.

POSTGAME: Rd 24 vs Collingwood
Last night looked a bit like the Bulldogs game where we could've lost by a lot more if the opposition had finished better in front of goal. Our midfield was non-existent (somewhat understandably) and that's been the big issue for much of the year. With Brayshaw, Oliver, Petracca and Viney in the side the other coach ends up playing whack-a-mole but it's a different story with only Vines (being tagged?) in there. It wasn't just that though as Collingwood mostly owned us on the outside and in the air as well. It's difficult to gauge where we are as a side right now with key players missing and Windsor and McVee aside, not really knowing how much upside the rest of the young group has yet. Looking back it seems like we spent the whole season trying to play Harry Petty into form in the senior team for a measly 9 goal return.

Laurie Extends for 2 More Years
I thought the same. Nibbler was in and out of the side until we were able to find the right role for him and it clicked. Same with Nev Jetta. Let's hope for a similar outcome here.

LOL. Just saw this thread pop up and thought we’d just re-signed Bill for ANOTHER 2 years. 😂

Who cares. It’s a popularity contest.

Get to the ‘G!
I'm glad it's our home game so I don't have sit anywhere near the puddle drinkers. If only I didn't have to breathe the same air as them for three hours.

Darren Bennett. “Great Stuff at Windy Hill”
Long before BBB we had Big Bad Billy Bennett. I think it was Brad Sparks that started calling him Billy. Once upon a time all we had were the occasional days out like this one to to give us hope that one day our fortunes would maybe change.

Jack Viney Extends Contract Until 2028
Could this be the resurrection of the North Melbourne 'war chest' of yesteryear? When they trawled the competition for A grade talent with big money contracts only to find Jared Polec snarled in their net when they pulled it in.

Max Gawn Re-Signs Until 2027
I'd estimate that 90% of the barneys that people have on this site are simply down to a lack of nuance in what they're trying to say.

NON-MFC: Round 23
As disappointing as it is to see Carlton win they have at least made it virtually impossible for Collingwood to squeeze into a finals position now. Also, even a win against St.K next week is likely see the Blues travel to the Gabba for an elimination final.

I have no idea who this guy is but he makes me burst out laughing every time someone posts it 🤣

Max Gawn Re-Signs Until 2027
Like Paolo Maldini and Richard Gough the guy is meticulous in how he looks after himself and there is no reason why he can't play to a high level for the next three years.

Who said I expected him to say anything else? Or say anything at all for that matter. I'm not part of the angry mob demanding answers or that heads roll.- Gary Pert on SEN (17/8/24)
I merely said it was waffle. Which it was. You disagree?
