I didn't see any of last night's Hawthorn vs Carlton game, but judging by that final scoreline of 53 to 32 I can only assume one of two things happened:
1. There were four 10 minute quarters with no time-on. Or
2. There were even higher levels of stacks-on-the-mill, rolling zone garbage than usual.
-
Not really - Hawthorn were just rusty, taking it easy and Carlton are just crap.
-
North beat the Saints.
No surprises so far. Teams playing their near-best sides cruising against clubs that are playing all their youngsters/reserves.
-
Essendon's reality check :lol.
Matty Dea had 12 possies.
-
1 point is 1 half
-
NAB game up in Mackay (lions -v saints) called off because of tropical storms/rain
Ground deemd unsafe for 0lay
-
Melbourne 1 goal in two quarters
Yeah great side to aspire to
-
Spoke too soon they're on fire
I'm getting a membership
-
It's pretty obvious they've gone past us now......
-
We will bring in bachelor an Chaplin next week
Everything will be fine
-
Top 4 Pies :rollin
Just shows once again that NAB results mean zilch.
-
So much for Victorian bias, go cows and go swans!
-
The way things are going the Bombers way not be bottom of the table after round 1
Go Pies :rollin
-
Wonder what Adam Trevor think of the Pies list right at the moment :snidegrin

Yep so much for all the hype about him and the pies

Sidebottom reported will probably go for a couple of weeks

Treloar's comment was cut short by some poor editing! He meant to say that Collingwood have a better list of suppliers! Boom tish! ;D

Doggies putting freo to the sword. 7 goals up at 1/4 time :gobdrop
-
.........aaaaand we won't be beating Geelong this year either....
-
Just a question about the coverage during round 1. Now that the interchange is capped at 90, how many times have ch7 shown us an interchange count? I saw one during Port v Saints & it was in the last few minutes. Port had 2 interchanges left & Saints had 1 ... game over with 5 mins left! Since there is a brand new sparkling rule in the game is there any harm in the viewers actually knowing the interchange count?

Watching the replay of our game, I noticed Ch7 mentioned it a 3 qtr time but no they didn't show many graphics about it during the game
-
On that note, I think the interchange rule brought a lot more balance to the game. All games this round, with perhaps the exception of GC v Ess, were fairly entertaining with a few crackers for the neutral. Think football is going to become "more watchable" this year! :thumbsup

Agree! There was something enjoyable about watching Whoreforn run out of legs as Geelong ran all over them in the last! Good For Footy! :snidegrin
But as a neutral viewer I wanted to know about the interchange numbers to enjoy watching them slow to a crawl even more, but the coverage let that stat slide ... the one stat that was actually affecting the game never cracked it for a mention! The interchange numbers tell us something about how the coach is approaching the game - did Clarko go too hard too early? etc ...
-
are freo shot?
are dangerfields bandits a shoe in?
-
drug cheats win
top win end all round

Melbourne still haven't won two premiership matches in a row in the same season since 2011.....clearly gone past us..... :shh

I thought he went okay. Still looks a little on the thin side
-
Port have gone past us
Saints have gone past us
-
Watching Freo play like the Tigers. Overuse the ball got trapped & turned it over
-
The Bulldogs are getting murdered by biased umpiring favouring the reigning premiers.
The decisions are mind boggling.
The Bulldogs get their first free kick at 28th minute mark of the 1st quarter.
Hawthorn has 5.
-
Roos v Demons is a great game Roos 135 Demons 111 so far
Both these teams would slaughter us :snidegrin
-
FMD these Hawks.
Give them the flag now.
If we have the same game plan as them how come we are the only ones that are s h i t Dimwit?

Norf have gone past us

Well done saints

Another one gone past us....

At least there's always Melbourne.
...hang on a second
-
St.Kilda & Essendon have gone past us.....
-
So have Brisbane and Gold Coast!

Doggies now copping a few injuries. Lost Murphy last week and now Johannisen (bad hammy) and Boyd (shoulder) tonight.
Steve May is looking at 6 weeks for his old fashion hip-and-shoulder shirtfront on Stef Martin. The AFL will come down like a ton of bricks on him. It'll be a straight to the tribunal job - May went past the ball, jumped off the ground, deliberately went to bump, head high contact and Martin was knocked out instantly and stretched off.

Huge results this weekend. Port are infact rubbish, we may be duking it out with them for the early draft picks.
GWS to make finals.
Melbourne to beat us comfortably next week, looking very solid.
Still very much in the air as to who the top 4 sides are imo. Dogs won't last up there, Hawthorn not looking as strong as they should be. Adel, Syd, W.C best teams for mine.
-
Port nearly pinched a flag... they're rubbish :o
Still they spanked us in NAB 3.
I can't see where our next win will come from

What is this i'm watching?
Fast, skilful, exciting, high scoring, pulsating...
-
Pretty sure Anderson's injured.
yeah but when he is fit hes a good bak up player ..
-
That was a good game, fast & skillful. But I was just waiting for the umpires to find a way to gift Whoreforn the match. Sure enough, with 1 minute to go & Whoreforn needing a goal, the umpire found half a free for in the back 30mtrs out & its all over! Sickening, just sickening ... ::)

Extra sickening when Adelaide was in my multi.
That cat Smith grabs the ball with seconds left and just stood there with no attempt to get rid of it.
-
The Pee&Poo make me sick. :chuck Can't watch them anymore and can't stand their powder puff ficklepoof supporters either, they are actually the dumbest in the competition and that's including the filth and the scum which is saying something.
I'm just waiting for the day :pray the pee&poo are finally crap like they were when they started and they have an extended era of perpetual crapness much like us over 35 years and I would like to see how many of them jump ship, I doubt they'd last even 5 years of the crap we've endured for over 30.

Nearly folded in 1996, 5 years after winning a flag. Member numbers flakey until the mid 2000s.
They jump off. Glory hunters.
Mind you, 45,000 last night at their home game, 5000 of which were Adelaide. So much for the alleged 75,000 members when only 40,000 ever turn up to a Melbourne home game

Blatant holding the ball
Looked and te guy , did nothing brace for the tackle. Had time to do that but did not have prior opportunity?
Weak cheatit umpires as per usual
-
wasnt the tackle deemed to be high?

that was the puopolo tackle your referring to i think. This was in the last 5 seconds and whilst not completely clear cut it was holding the ball in my eyes.
scum bags gave them another 4 points.

Maybe dimwit will get leppa back to punt road after he gets the arse soon

Freo are as rubbish as Richmond

Carlton have gone passed us….. :shh

Should be a great trip to Perth next month :thumbsup

What's this music crap at half time
-
No Buckley bashing this week to take the heat off..... :shh
-
No but there's Lyon :shh
-
No one cares about Perth
Has any team not gone past us ? ...
Maybe freo are on our level
We just about got the drug cheats covered
This year anyway ...
The lions and saints have a lot of upside...
:gotigers
-
Swap the Crows in the Eight for the Suns and by the looks of it you're pretty much going to get the final 8.
At the other end of the ladder, Lyon and Freo going the tank this year after finishing minor premiers last year.

They need a pick to get McCarthy :shh

While he's yet to do much, the Dogs really missed Tom Boyd up forward last night. They kept bombing it forward but were too short and small to compete against North's taller defenders. They really needed a big bodied key forward to mark or bring the ball to ground level. They also missed Murphy's clean use of the ball off half-back. It was like watching us last night with that many turnovers ;D.
North, on the other hand, are having a dream run. All their players including all their 30+ brigade are fit and in form, so their best 22 is settled and on the park every week.

North did little to convince me last night, aside from get the win. Dogs could have (and should have) won that with a little more forward structure. Scott would surely be a little concerned with the contested footy disparity.
-
terrible game last night, the only redeeming feature was the hilarious turnovers
-
Typical Melbourne. Treat our game as a GF and then lose easily the following week to St Kilda.
Crows beat Freo in the other game this arvo.
-
Carlton now 2 games ahead.....
-
Bux and dimma will call each other again this week no doubt. How cute

Thanks. Yeah, it looked like watching the vision initially that the reason he went down was due to his knee twisting in the tackle, but as we now know, it was the follow through from the tackler colliding with Gazza's head.

Yeah, "luckily" it was only a knock. Hate to see another great go down with a knee
-
Pies 6 goals up on Geelong at half-time :o.
All the focus now will be on Eade with the Suns copping another flogging.
-
GWS spanking the Bulldogs by 22 points with 10 minutes left in the 3rd. l like the way they move the footy
-
N0rf saving themselves for their Grand final next week ::)
Knew it :shh
-
Goldstein was taken off towards the end of the game last night. Apparently, copped a knock around his knee.
-
Port knocked off the Dees in the Alice. So if GWS beat Adelaide, then we'll only be a game outside the Eight if we win tonight :o.
-
Fremantle are beating the Ainteare
The dockers have gone past us
-
Blues down Geelong
:gobdrop

What a result!
Who the bloody hell is going to win it this year??
If we were playing like we did 2nd half of last year we'd be in with a real chance.
-
Only a fool would write off Geelong , but I have a feeling some their senior players older legs are starting to catch up with them as the season moves into winter....
....they'll still manage to pee it in against us like they always do though....
-
Mmmm I thought Geelong were over reaching and were actually not as good as people thought. Didn't think they'd lose to Carlton though :lol
-
Looks like the Colliwobbles are going to take the heat off Halfstep for another week again....
-
Lucky Buckley isn't a nobody innit damien
-
Do Port make the 8?
Do GWS make the 8? (let alone top 4)
-
another soldier down another chaplin type to come in for the buldogs.
Gee they are a good football team. Not hard to see why
Easten wood
Picken
Dahlhaus
Hunter
Redpath
Campbell.
Dickson
all rookies or late picks.
similar to hawks and swans with the nailing of their picks.
Not to worry we have Hackson doing marvelous things at punt road. :birthday :birthday
-
crows lose tonight and baggas win tomorrow, then they could be outside the 8 on %. lol
-
Buy danger a helicopter I said
No no get Townsend instead
-
crows lose tonight and baggas win tomorrow, then they could be outside the 8 on %. lol
Or Adelaide could win and Carlton lose

Or Adelaide could win and Carlton could suddenly remember they still need more high picks.
e.f.a.

I see Brad Scott was whinging about umpires last night. I must have missed where he bagged the umps post-game for the missed holding the ball decision on Cunnington in front of our goal in the EF :sleep. Karma!
North are the biggest bunch of scraggers and divers. Thomas only has himself to blame if the umps now refuse to pay him any head-high free kicks.
-
Brad Scott should get a doozy of a fine
-
Essendon almost went past us
-
Sainters! :clapping
-
They've gone past us
-
Went past us weeks ago.....
-
Good bunch of kids the sainters who actually play occasionally.
Decent core too
-
Get it done Crows by more than 51 points @ $2.10 & l get last nights money back :santa
-
Said l get it back :lol
-
Let's see if the umpires can get the Dawks over the line in this match vs Sydney.
Watch for a Puopulo head high special with 1 min to go. :rollin
-
Hawthorn toying with everyone....just give 'em the flag now...
...and slap anyone who suggests we should go after Towers...that's at least two matches he's cost Sydney this year....
-
How dark was their brown? How are they allowed to get away with this?
Why isn't Penny talking about it? Benny should be banging on Gillons door.

Flag number 4 for these pricks
Why why why isn't this us?
We had Save our Skins early 90s, they had Operation Payback to stop a merger with Melbourne in '96.
We played Preliminary final 2001, they played Prelimany final 2001.
We hit rock bottom again changed our coach in 2005, they hit rock bottom changed their coach 2005.
We have made 3 Elimination finals losing all three and look to rebuild again again since then.
They have made finals 9 out of 12 years won 4 premierships and maybe a 5th with the the possibility of 4 in a row. :rollin
Why? Why? Why?
Whorethorn give me the poos. :banghead :banghead :banghead
-
That leg/ankle break of Wallis was sickening to watch :P.
-
Slowed it down as I originally had no idea how it happened. Poor kid
Dogs are cooked this year. Stringer as the lone forward with Boyd. No chance
North gone. GWS won't win it this year on the G.
Hawks at 4/1 is easy money for this years flag unfortunately.
-
Adelaide or Sydney? Feel like Hawks look vulnerable although they have every right to go in favourites
-
Lions by 9 goals
13 individual goal kickers
Drug cheat fans leaving early on mass
So brave, so brave
-
That will gift Essendon their first wooden spoon in 83 years ;D.
Saves Leppa his job for one more week too.
-
That leg/ankle break of Wallis was sickening to watch :P.
Sort of inbetween Brownies and Jason Snell's. :help
Who's gunna beat Hawthorn in the GF then?
Don't think GWS can (lack of exp). Maybe an Adelaide or Sydney
-
Dogs were gutsy tonight. Lost another two players to injury and yet their intensity never dropped off.

Hard to see anyone beating Hawthorn when it matters. Geelong are too flighty; Swans have been shown up post-2012 vs Hawthorn; GWS and Eagles struggle away from home; Dogs crueled by injuries; North are pretenders; Adelaide unknown. The Crows arguably have the scoring power to match Hawthorn but we are yet to see this current Adelaide side perform in September which as we know is a different kettle of fish. Geelong at its best can score quickly against any side and have a good record against Hawthorn but they are very inconsistent and the difference between their best and worst is huge.
-
They won't get past the 2nd week of the finals but you've got to admire the Dogs team workrate and pressure. It doesn't drop no matter how many players they've lost to injury this year.
As for North = old pretenders! :lol :yep. Unlikely, but if the Saints were to win all of their remaining games, they could still knock the Roos (who play top 4 sides) out of the finals.
North: - Haw (MCG) Syd (ES) GWS (ES)
St K: Carl (ES) Syd (ES) Rich (MCG) Bris (ES)

Pies lose by less than a kick with the ball in their forward line. What a shame! ;D

Carlton down by 29 to the lions #tanking #carlscum.
Wonder if Bolton will still win coach of the year?
-
A bad night for the Hawks. They'll most likely now finish 4th facing an interstate final and their rucks stocks will be tested with McEvoy only left after Ceglar did what looked like an ACL.
The Eagles also have concerns despite the win with NicNat hurting his knee(?) as well.

Nic Nat ACL

There goes Melbournes and Tigermonks dream of a finals spot

West Coast -who already had Natanui- go and get Giles for a third round pick.
Richmond happy with Hamspud & Broken Maric.

AFL HQ will be doing cartwheels about last night's result.
Match-ups for first week of finals if the rest of round 23 results go as expected:
Qualifying final - Sydney Swans v Greater Western Sydney @ ANZ
Qualifying final - Geelong v Hawthorn @ MCG
Elimination final - West Coast v Western Bulldogs @ Subiaco
Elimination final - Adelaide v North Melbourne @ Adelaide Oval
That would mean a final in four different states and sell-outs for each final.
Edit: Fixed - Sydney derby at ANZ; not SCG.
-
AFL just paid a million bucks to move the Swans final from ANZ to SCG...unless they play GWS,which due to last night's result now looks likely.....then it will still be played at ANZ.....
