2018 we made a PF. 2023 for Carlton is looking more like our 2019.

Funny you mention the international broadcasters; My first ever contact/exposure to AFL footy (although I didn't know it at the time) was back in 2013 before I even migrated to Oz land. Some random satellite dish channel was broadcasting AFL games on Sat afternoons in my home country of Mexico. I wonder how much they were paying for those broadcasting rights... 🤔

I am in North America, yeah I just feel I am giving my money twice to Kayo, just for one game! Absolutely pathetic to be honest. I am always concerned the VPNs won't work. Anyways I guess I will have to ponder the next couple of days if I am willing to give the 24 bucks to Kayo/7 Network/AFL

Fellow D'landers. I am currently overseas and was planning to watch the game via watchAFL.com.au. However it is a daylight robbery, 24 dollars for one week! (it's basically what I am paying for my monthly Kayo sub). Isn't there anyway to pay "on demand" (i.e. just for the one game)? TIA.

Between this and the Sydney Academy system ... 🤢🤢🤢 But of course Melbourne lost Mac Andrew for BS change of rules.

Collingwood are very good at losing in the finals, team with the most 2nd place medals by a long stretch (was it 27?)

You seem pretty bullish on Freo. I still think they can miss finals, and for our draft pick sake I hope they do.

So we find ourselves mid-way through the season (how time flies!). To me this season has been particularly hard to identify the real contenders from the pretenders. What does DL think? Are Collingwood, PA and Brisbane the only solid candidates so far? Are we closer to the contenders or the pretenders based on current form? Looking forward to KB game, I can't help but feel we are a chance.

Probably without Lynch Freo may be favourites then. But of course I do hope they can beat them dockers.

Is Tom Lynch back next week?

How can you not push Bolton out of bounds with 5 seconds to go? Talk about footy smarts.

At least they jumped Freo?

Same applies to Brisbane 🤣🤣

The umpires and Bulldogs not kicking straight kept the Cats in this game.

GCS must be regretting letting the mediocre Freo beat them in Adelaide.

The [censored] broadcasters are part of the whole system with the AFL. They try and avoid putting the replays for all those dodgy decisions by the umpires.

I will soon have my break by sitting on a plane for 14 hours.. Still deciding if I am going to stay up to watch the KB game (it'll be at 11 pm first bounce for me).

He looked like it, will be missed next week

Swap Brayshaw and McVee? Angus is not clean at all with ball, rather use him in the half back.

Almost as bad as the Essendon and Freo games, but at least 4 points. Need a massive lift up against Collingwood.

Famous words by our premiership coach.. Learnings... 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

May - 6 Trac - 5 Lever - 4 Sparrow - 3 Bowey - 2 Max - 1 Apologies to JVR, Fritsch and McVee

Chandler needs a break. But I am very worried about Kozzies lack of impact with pressure in our fwd 50. I'd expect him to generate HTB calls when he is 2 metres away from a under duress Carlton defender.

Yep, can't remember how many times Spargo or Chandler have to contest the ball with guys 15 - 20 cm taller than them. Very stupid set up IMO.

Noooo Bowey, one of our best on the ground 🥲
