Lets not forget Carlton have the lowest H&A percentage of all time for a table leader .....another bad sign.

I still have great memories of you guys singing that hideous song after a goal is scored. And with 3 and a half minutes to go when Cameron put you in front. Then De Goey and Sidey nailed two absolute gems and the siren sounded and we were Premiers hoisting that beautiful, shiney Premiership cup as McRae and The boys celebrated on the podium.I still have vivid and fond memories of the blues supporters in the bay next to me during the first quarter of the PF talking about flights to Melbourne for the grand final. Inject it straight into my veins.

Now that, is what dreams are made of
Sydney
SA media is state based, AFL media is supposed to be National...Oh please give me a spell.
I live in Adelaide, so I have to tolerate the most biased bullshit media coming from all angles.
So don't give me the Vic Bias angle because compared to the non-stop bombardment of only two teams in the AFL, Victoria are the most open minded media outlets there are.
In SA, news is unwatchable, radio is unlistenable and the paper is unreadable.
I would seriously be forgiven for thinking that Port or Crows are not only going to win the next 5 flags but they have also won the last three.
I cant take it anymore, I want to go home
No im really not, I have been in SA for over a year now .SA media is state based, AFL media is supposed to be National...
I thought you were brighter than that.
They've played two games before other clubs have even played their first. Maybe wait a few more weeks?
Lol, I dont mind Carlton or Vossy but give me a break, they beat a side no one rates by 5pts who were 3 men down before half time coming off a 5 day break that last played in QLDs humidity.
Considering 2 of those 3 men down were defenders, how they couldnt score themselves is of concern enough in itself.
As I said in the gameday thread, last nights result says more about how Brisbane could fold from 46pts up than this result.
And im stuffed if I know why theres so much hype around Cripps, his disposal is woeful for a guy who struts around like he does.
Agreed, and when you combine all that with Richmonds situation it paints a very negative picture of Carltons actual ability.
Only Vic media deadhead sychophants like David King could find a positive in being 46pts down against a side that could cave in and lose, followed by a 5pt win against a depleted non contender. And only then because he is so Vic biased in everything he suggests he needs every hope he can find.
Then he'd spin it the other way and say Richmond are also the real deal for standing up under adversity.
They played ordinary football last night at times against a mistake riddled Tigers.
At times they were playing like millionaires especially Fantasia who I can’t see making it into their premiership side this year.
They’ll lose and find form this year so hopefully they find it at the right time.
Collingwood last year were one of the only sides I can ever remember who won a premiership when they were out of form, their last 8 weeks was lacklustre and they still managed it.
Carlton will need to be in form and firing to win it so timing and injuries will be key.
They’re definitely a tough side to beat.
Love seeing them hyped at the very start of the season, generally turns out SO well...
Swans, GWS and Brisbane are going to be hard to beat. So many options in the forward lines and the rest of the teams looking pretty stacked too.
We'd need a Curnow and Mckay masterclass to get past any of the 3 in a big game imo, we just don't have much else going for us up forward in comparison.
I have said it before and I will say it again, for those who are hard of hearing.Shocked they are only 4th favourite.. why are GWS flag favourites over Brisbane/Pies with Carlton further back
Swans will tear you apart.
It’s actually a good sign that they’ve won while their midfield was down.Free kick counts arent always a sign on their own, but certainly there were a few baffling calls.
But the Blues were unable to get a clearance on their own for nearly the entire night. That isnt a good look for their midfield.
Free kicks are counted as clearances and contested possessions, arent they ?
