Yeah fu** Melbourne. They need to start playing some decent sides outside of Malbun before I rate them. Garry Lyon played for and supports Melbourne. Simon Goodwin is their coach. Not sure why anybody would want good things for them.

I don't want it, but when it's between them, the Bulldogs, Richmond yet again and the juiced up cats

Goodwin and Gary Lyon are human garbage and I wish them no pleasure, I would prefer any team even Bulldogs or Cats over Melbourne....but that's just me.

Watching the Hawks/Eagles game, can't help but think what a weapon Impey would be in our current team. Bigger loss than Wingard IMO

Has any club entered a Showdown with the sole intention of keeping the score down and had the coach admit it?

I’d be ****ing fuming if we did that, there’s a time and a place to be ‘realistic’, but the location derby should always have it all on the line, particularly when ones club is in the shit!

Norf will beat the howks next week

 

[Schulzenfest]

Wowee.

Brendon Ah Chee with four goals so far against Hawthorn.

Good to see him doing well.

Wowee.

This is amazing.

That right there is grounds for matricide on Mother’s Day.

Bulldogs once again getting their dicks kissed by the men in yellow. Going to be a long day for Carlton playing against 25.

Tuned in to the Bulldogs game.

Heard Cameron Ling speaking.

In the background, the chant of 'Doggies, Doggies, Doggies! Oi! Oi! Oi!'

Tuned out five seconds later.

Nicks comments around being happy to keep the game ugly were enough to make Paul Roos blush.

Won’t hear a peep though.
Just like how they boost their attendances with time slots etc.

 

[JakeNeadeFan]

If a player gets a free kick near the boundary (or oof), and they walk out of bounds when taking their kick, if they get called to play on is it a throw in?

My understanding was that if you get called to play on because of time then you get the opportunity to play the ball inbounds, but if you run off the mark then it should be a throw in?

I feel I've seen a bunch of different interpretations of this rule.

4 goal 1st half from betts

 

[afl2004]

Dogs loosing dunkley has had a massive impact on them , no were near as good without him and no martin as well

 

[Greasyrhys]

I bet the dawgs have one eye on our game

 

[Eddie Dingle]

4 goal 1st half from betts

Rippers too.

So much better watching Eddie now.

 

[Del165198]

4 goal 1st half from betts

wow. hes been cooked for about 3 years. good on him. seems like a genuine good bloke

 

[It Just Is]

I think Carlton have the right formula for beating the bulldogs. Get them in a shootout to expose a one way midfield and average forward and back lines.

What you don’t want is a contested tackle slog.

 

[philreich]

It warms the cockles of my heart to see free kicks being paid against the Dogs. However my joy is tempered by the probability that there'll be a correction in their favour next week.

Except that they keep blowing chances to have a dominant lead at halftime.
