Geelong are so good to watch. Said nobody ever.

Buddy is 4 goals away from 1,000. Who'd have known?

Outwith a couple of key season ending injuries this game has had everything so far.

Top four Saturday night blockbuster against the Suns coming up. Might just shade the Richmond v Giants grand final preview.

It's an absolute travesty there aren't 60,000 WC fans inside Optus to witness this.

Hey Cards. Yeah, they are the Melbourne side that play in some tri-nation rugby union comp aren't they? I think they share AAMI Park with Victory and Storm. I don't know what if any traction they get down here. I'm not sure that Levi Casboult would even make the covid top up list for any other club but without Ben King for the year beggars can't be choosers.

Hi Rod. They were 4 goals down when I posted so there may have been a lag. I think WC had double their score at the time.

Just got home and switched on the box to find GC are getting pantsed by WC reserves. As a sporting non entity they'd be up there with the Jacksonville Jaguars in the NFL.

I thought they'd stopped playing games at that stadium? Something about the poor surface causing injuries I think.

Jesus I wish they'd stop going on about Buddy Franklin.

Anthony Hudson will have to go and knock one out if this Essendon kid kicks another goal.

This is turning into a really good battle of the cellar dwellers.

He offered to make a public apology and donate $20,000 to the Make America Great Again Again fund to no avail.

Looks like we got our round 1 fireworks after all.

Tom Morris: Fox Footy back me 100% Nek minnit.

Yup, I remember it well. Carlton charged back and hit the front, only a game saving booming goal from Hunty near the end got us over the line. Isn't cartilage and meniscus the same thing? I've got meniscal tears in each of my knees but the last surgeon I saw didn't want to trim them lest it leave bone rubbing against bone which would be worse.

Sounds similar to what T-Mac had in 2019. He went off after kicking six goals against the Blues. It ended his season but there were only about six games left of a train wreck of a year.

All that's missing now is a leaked photo of TM in blackface kicking a cat.

Carlton look like the real deal. If they don't win 8 games this year I'll eat my hat.

If it had been an AFL player or coach that had made those comments Fox would have been all over it but I haven't heard a peep about it on this evenings broadcast. Surely Jon Ralph would have an 'exclusive' on the developing story.

Right. That's work finished for the day. Now to make my way to The Tippler for 5pm opening. Let's hope they have a good range of beers on tap for the new season or it'll be straight onto the espresso martinis. Enjoy the night everyone!

Still too much of JB and BT for my liking. Bang, Bang, Bang aside.

Our % is knackered if we keep gifting goals to this average outfit.

As regards to Gawny's incident with the Oompa Loompa I'm sure he has said previously somewhere (maybe in his book?) that he wasn't balanced at the time so couldn't brace himself and this contributed to how he fell, making it look worse than it was. He just thought it should have been a free kick.

Just watched it on my lunch break. I'd rather have had 90 minutes of this than the Fox doco.
