This game had become critical to our season. The hawks are no easy beats. Win and top 4 is guaranteed. Lose and we’re heading to Sydney under the pump. Grundy and JJ to be replaced by hibbo and TMac (praying he can find his mojo).

Our slow starts worry me. The oppo tear into us from the get-go and put us on the back foot straight away. Switch on from the start and we win last night. The luck was against us. the big calls went Carltons way. Such is life. If we can find a partner in crime for JVR we're set for September. One last dance with TMac perhaps?

I reckon Marchbank is telling fibs.

His wife won’t be happy with that

And you’ve only just now found demonland. Where you been?

Yes their list is a shambles but they have been playing badly for a few years now. They play with zero spirit. They are injured all the time because they’re poorly conditioned. Simpson is the head coach. Buck stops with him. They’ve been a disgrace on his watch.

goal umpire - stitched us up

goal umpire stitched us. why call it as touched when it obviously wasn't.

West coast Eagles are a laughingstock. How is Adam Simpson still in a job?

We started slow again this week. We were lucky not to be 4 goals down at quarter time. Fought back well but start like that next week against the hawks and we’ll be in trouble.

Salem has been poor recently. He had all the time in the world 45 meters out and fluffed it. His dinky kicks putting his teammates in trouble starting to get on my nerves as well.

Good to have you back. And hopefully in time for a dees flag

Could have won it but it’s a tough competition. Carlton played very well. Brought plenty of heat. We let them get the jump on us at the start of the 4th and that was the game. Disappointing after wrestling the game back on our terms. we’re still in it up to our necks. go dees edit: I haven’t seen replays of tracs non goal. Inconclusive from the replays at the ground.

Salem dinky kicks just putting his teammates in trouble

We’re on top. Carlton couldn’t sustain the heat they were bringing. We’ll win it now.

Kossie field kicking putrid tonight

This start as bad as last week. Wake the f up dees

rubbish decisions to the Lions. Very pro hometown umpiring here.

You’re no great loss to the nation that’s for sure.

Umps being kind to Lions thus far

Crows on fire early. playing beautifully.

say hello to the old curmudgeon for us.

Promising start suns. would be great if they can get the job done today

Lukosius one of the best kicks in the league

Good luck to the Matildas tonight but for me its all about us v Carlton.
