Geeze the Melbourne media are critical of non Victorian crowds. But Dees v Carlton at the MCG you’d expect at least 65k. Doesn’t look anything like it.

 

[PeacefulWarrior]

He’s bloody good on form, so it’s worth the risk. Just hope it creates holes elsewhere.

Rankine being their highest paid player is crazy.

He looks great but jeez that’s crazy money

 

[PeacefulWarrior]

When Rankine & Rachele are kicking goals out of their assholes on heavy repeat no one will care about the coin.

They will when their talent leaves because they can’t afford to pay them because it’s all going to those two

That’s the issue for me.

And good on Carlton for wearing a decent clash strip although all-white for footy just seems wrong to me.

They've barely got anyone else commanding big money at the moment.

I see Carlton winning this game against Melbourne by a couple of goals then first week of finals Melbourne finish 5th then come out and win by 20 goals against the Blues.
I’m on the Sydney train this September, would usually switch off but will be at GF so I’m giving it my best to stay interested.

I couldn’t stand NRL and had many a pub debates but with all the rule changes, inconsistencies and Koch/Ken crap I am warming to the No necks and tossing the so-called aerial ping pong.

Jimmy Rowe brah

What happened to Rankine?

 

[DazzaTys]

Geeze it makes my blood boil watching Voss coach. We had the perfect succession plan and we f$$ked it.

 

[Del165198]

What an underwhelming player Luko is.

A couple of years ago I thought he was about to become a gun, his kicking can create holes in the defence at its best, not sure what's happened to him

He got drafted by the suns

in his last W Derby+ the rest of the 2022 season.Has played in a GF for Freo and other finals campaigns.
But seen lots of bad says at Freo.And must of considered going back to Victoria a few times.

 

[StuMan]

150m penalty lol

 

[Marmozet]

This is a heated derby

 

[Del165198]

Haha wow massive squib from Mckay

 

[PowerBaz]

Reaaaaaaally hope Adelaide sell the farm for him.

If the offer of $800-$850 is true that seems incredibly irresponsible list management

That’s like saying we can’t afford to pay Ken… he’ll be worth it.

 

[DazzaTys]

Did somebody say Petty is off contract? If so should be going hard at him.

I heard he's a bit of a heartbreaker

I’ll pay that lol

It was good to see Cunnington back on the park today.

Bloke has had a rough ride and I bet playing today meant the world to him and those close to him.

 

[Festerz]

This is a great game. Lots of pressure around and off the ball. Blues have surprised me with their ferocity. Saad is playing a great defensive game. Have I mentioned how easy it is to follow a game on TV when they have clear clash strips? Given how much money comes to the clubs and players from the broadcasters you'd reckon the AFL would do something about that.

And the crowd has built up nicely. Why Vics leave it to the last minute to get to the game only to face huge queues at the gates continues to confuse me. Especially with so many public transport options available to get there.

Anyway. As I said. Great game.

Agree. But geez how many times did his team mates set him up with dumb passes in that first qtr? Give the guy time to work up to game pace ffs.

Nah he was last year when we had a crack.

He re-signed

 

[gtrxuone]

West Coast are playing pretty good wet weather footy.Their defense is bombing it out and Freo are trying to finess the ball back in.. Pretty sure Freo have lost all there games in the wet this year.

 

[Amarula]

The fix is well and truly in - Carlton v Geelong GF.
