Demons were only one free kick up at half time. We were one point up at half time. Then all the umpiring decisions started going Melbournes way. You can say that the umpiring did not effect the result but it eventually broke the spirit of the team in the second half. The players looked demoralised at the end.

It's unfair towards Yze and the kids to experience this bias umpiring It would break the kids confidence and momentum. But Gale won't question the afl
Gale is the AFL's lap dog, I have said it for years. I'm always going to be grateful for what Gale did dot the club but it's extremely obvious that Gale will never say anything detremental towards the AFL Cabal. It gives me the shits that he is so tight lipped while we are all seeing the cheating unfold before us. If we wait for Gale to stand up and grow a set of balls the club will be on it's knees.
 
enough time for sonsie to find some touch
Had leather poisoning today. I'm looking forward to him being recalled and being dropped in the fwd pocket and not having an impact and then subsequently get dropped again because the coaches can't figure out what's not working.
 
number one. we need better strength conditioning and medical staff. why the **** would we skimp on that part of our club???? we are one of the biggest most powerful club in the land and we have newbs in charge of this???? wtf. Benny gale if you know you are going to off to tassie after end of the year then go now. why stick around when you clearly don't give a shit anymore?!!?!
re. coaching. I might be in the minority here but what evidence does anyone have that Adam with an e can actually coach? he seems like a nice bloke but can he coach at this level? yes we have loads of injuroes but we have to fight through this... playing players out of position, lack of game day coaching, poor team selection all would suggest to me that he is struggling.we are a bloody shambles atm. I still see us bombing long inside 50. wtf. next year cannot come quick enough...

wont play 1s ever again
 
I like Campbell but is it worth giving him a rest and given green or Coulthard a crack?
We are coming off a 10 day break and we have another 11 day break coming up so I feel like he will have enough rest.

Unfortunately he isn't helping the club's current and future state if he continues to remain silent about the afl bias. Eventually players won't be interested in playing at rfc.

Gunna be a painful few years sadly. The positives are that these injuries are giving valuable games into our kids. Give me a bottom 4 finish and a proper clean out come seasons end.

how many membere we loose of louies there again next year ?
 
yup - I think the below is very telling. It is really only in the past few years with an entirely new administration that Cartlons transgressions have been forgotten. & I don't think EFC are exactly a favourite son yet (but they can likely get in line for preferred premier after Carlton salute in the next few seasons)


Yeah i lived through the whole Carlton thing at the time it happened as my father was a massive Carlton fan & I had a membership to both Tiges and Carlton, as i still would go to the footy with him,.

Carlton 95 - 2007 would be an incredible doco piece. It really had it all. Seeing that team go from one of the most impressive Flag winners of the decade, they won every game except 2, both to the bottom 2 teams in consecutive weeks.

The won every game by 4-goals or more, except for 3 under 10. The won the Prelim & the GF by 10 goals. They were a beast of a team. A "classic" great team IMO.

Its the latter years though where it gets interesting. When Elliott challenged the AFL over Optus Oval, refused to back down. One of the biggest "what ifs" of the entire competition for me is ... what if that tip-rat O'Reily didn't dog out the extra payment situation and the AFL & Carlton went to court over the Princess Park issue? The cap breach blew it all up - but if it went to court, which it surely would have - how would have that changed the power structure of the AFL?
 
naismith is as bad as his tatts
No, he's just a pure ruck. Nothing else. He shouldn't have been selected. Give Ryan a crack FFS

Out: Hopper (inj), Naismith, Campbell (rest)
In: Sonsie (to play Hopper's role), Ryan, Coulthard

After our next game against Freo, we could have Short, Prestia, Balta, Trezise back available for selection. Now's the time to give Sonsie a proper go in the guts.
 
Dusty is done, we need to stop thinking he is going to turn it on next time because he won't. He can't even shrug a tackle anymore.
Yze just said in his presser he is there to give his wisdom to the likes of Bolton and the young guys feed off his words.
That's why he is playing, my concern is when Yze said he hopes he can do it for a few years, I hope that is a ruse because our great man Dusty needs enjoy his last season and let us fans thank him for everything he has given us.
He deserves to go out while still contributing, would be selfish to ask him to go again watch him get slower for the sake of it.

It seems to be that Gale would be perfectly suited to becoming a politician. He is more intent on vertue signaling whatever the Government is pushing, he should worry about what's happening at the club rather than other shit.

You can say that the umpiring did not effect the result but it eventually broke the spirit of the team in the second half. The players looked demoralised at the end.

Even in the first half, there were pushes in the back, throws, dives, and holding the balls that they weren’t penalised for and I thought, with even ‘luck’, we could have been a goal or two up; not that it ultimately mattered
