[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

People might not agree but I would tap Abbey Holmes

Dow is getting closer to being considered a total bust in my opinion. 40th game tonight, 6 games over 20+ disposals, 1 effective disposal before half time tonight. Skinny and poor skills is not a good combination.

Dow, Silvagni and O’Brien have played a stupid amount of football considering how poor they are

 

[Captivating]

I know Dow is small - but he seems scared of his own shadow.

Dow playing like his Index namesake....tanking big time

 

[Gaben]

Won more Premierships than Collingwood in the last few years so probably has some insight.

This is about as hur dur as a comment can get, congrats.

 

[sante]

Should have played Betts

 

[Gavin Excell]

Pretty happy we didn’t get Jack Martin

Thought Martin been ok to half time

 

[Ambrosia]

How is that not push in the back

fist full of jumper and shove in the back.

 

[spudmaster]

Teague was overheard directing his players on the way down the race at half-time to start coughing loudly in the hope of having the game called off.

 

[Luv_our_club]

If you accept the tackle = not holding the ball
If you fight the tackle = holding the ball

This needs to change.

Nathan Broad has a face not even a homeless hobo's mother could love.

Who needs a face when you have a premiership medallion.

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Carlton had enough of it make a game of it. Class from Tigers though to end the game before the half.

 

[Redline]

My summary
1) Richmond are far too good.
2) Carlton will struggle again
3) The game needs some kind of atmosphere
4) Some professional players still can't do the basics. I have no idea what they do all summer.

 

[The King!]

blues injuries making it shit for them

 

[TheSunGod]

Isn't that the tiger roar?

I thought it was the locomotive train sound from the AC/DC Live at River Plate concert.

 

[theyellowsash]

The no crowd gets some getting use to

They should allow 1 fan from each side with a panel of buttons that plays recordings of ball, boo, and cheers over the loudspeaker

 

[Engimal v3]

Thanks for the update Ralphy ya ****wit

 

[Giant Pete]

Absolutely piss poor half from the Blues. They are a shambles of a club. Also, no one in the comp gets away with more pushes in the back thank J. Riewoldt.

 

[Ricmel]

Gee Carlton look ordinary. Forward line is way undersized, gotta move Casboult forward in second half?

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Cartlon are the most irrelevant club in the AFL why give them this prime game is what the footy public are trying to say. Enough is enough.
Blues social distancing is making it a training run for the Tigers.

Why should we (Carlton FC and it's fans) give a flying toss what the general football public thinks .

We don't plan the fixture, take it up with Channel 7 and The AFL

 

[Evolved1]

If COVID-19 sends the AFL bankrupt, perhaps we can start a new league that doesn't start the season with this dogshit matchup every year?

At the very least, the AFL should give free tickets to a horror movie, marketed pregame as a double feature.

 

[Great8]

Thought Martin been ok to half time

Reckon he absolutely shirked a couple of contests

 

[The King!]

They should allow 1 fan from each side with a panel of buttons that plays recordings of ball, boo, and cheers over the loudspeaker

carlton guy would have gone already

 

[dazzledavey36]

Carlton are a ****ing joke! Forgot about australia going into lockdown. Lock this piss stain of a club up for good.

 

[telsor]

Would have been 90k+ it was pretty much sold out before the crowd was cancelled.

It's an entertainment business...if huge crowds want the fixture, the AFL will do their best to deliver.

Would you prefer 10k on the gold coast?

Love this, the AFL never get it do they. When you have locked in fixtures you open yourself up to yearly drubbings. Even worse that most years 70k plus idiots turn up to watch the drubbing. Hope the Tigers win by a ton.
