John Crow Batty

He and Naughton are the leaders in the coiffure stakes this season.

last 3 games, 12 tackles.

Same here, hope to get a Prelim ticket and take it from there.

I saw it and right in front of the umpire who did nothing.

Weightman, umpires boy toy.

Good to see a nice wet weather slog. The winner will be knackered.

CC scoring 5 goals is a warning. Hunt or Hibberd might come back in.

Last time I recall a player making umpire contact in a disrespectful, deliberate and aggressive manner was a couple of decades ago when a Bulldogs player shoved an umpire out of the way at a bounty throw in. I think but not sure it was Brad Johnson who copped 4 weeks. Toby Greene should get the same.

I’m more nervous than usual. Last week was huge emotional high. I hope we don’t come down from it.

Henderson 3 mistakes for three direct goals to Port. Cats really missing Stewart tonight.

Nick Hind has been forced out of the Bombers team because he visited a tier 2 exposure site. He can’t travel to Tasmania.

I don’t care who wins as long as they belt the living daylights out of each other.

It was obvious the relationship between Teague and Carlton had broken down a long time ago. Teague didn’t want to coach anymore but wanted his payout and both his and his managers media comments were very provocative and daring Carlton to sack him. Just like when Malthouse was sacked. Carlton sure know how to manage their coaches.

Imagine the devastation if he lit one of his farts.

Of course if he ducked and got a free 20 metres out in the GF with us trailing by 2 points with 10 seconds to play no one is going to complain. Self interest always trumps ethics.

If he wants to play for premierships he should come and play for us at half price.

Just a philosophical question. Is ducking a small mans curse or small mans revenge?

I hope in the future there will two AA teams selected. So many of the choices are subjective. Who can say Harris Andrews in better than May? Players need to be selected for actual positions and not cluttered with too many midfielders. There is also an opportunity for actual match ups say like Gawn vs Niknat.

Used to live in Powlett St opposite the MCG in 1964. Then it was a cross between a bohemian and working class suburb and not uber rich like now. After the game my brother and I were sitting on the fence watching the thousands of fans going home when a jubilant drunken Melbourne supporter gave us 1 pound each. A fortune for a young kid those days. I was already a Melbourne supporter then. My brother followed Geelong because he liked cats.

Guthrie’s attempt to waste time backfired badly when he was arguing with the umpire about some irrelevance and then told to play on forcing him to kick in a hurry and OOTF.

Brett Ratten the only half decent coach at Carlton in the past two decades was sacked by the club. The other half dozen coaches were sacked by the players. Expect a 100 points loss to farewell Teague.

Which one is Brian Taylor?

They might rendition Daw to Guantanamo Bay.
