    Preview Round 4 vs Gold Coast @ MCG – Sunday 5 April 2026, 3:15 pm AEDT

    As mentioned would be nice to not get blown away early. Good teams will quash any potential comebacks. The Fremantle game was evident when we got within 20 points, they scored 2 goals in red time that essentially ended the game. Would be good to stay in the contest for as long as possible. Not...

    Player Watch #41: Paddy Cross – SSP Selection (debuts this week)

    Looked like the ball just spilled Windsor's way, but was actually a very clever little tap.

    Review Dees v the Carlton Cheats: the Good, the Bad and the Ugly

    Reckon we kicked the first two of the second quarter as well in that 2020 game, thought we were on. Then we completely stopped, still remember hearing Garry Lyon saying how Carlton were playing much better and got themselves back in the game. This was at half time. He was certainly right we only...

    Fantastic goal but I appreciate more him making a contest bringing the ball to ground, which lead to Fritsch goal. Those little things mean a lot.

    Review Dees v the Carlton Cheats: the Good, the Bad and the Ugly

    Carlton really seem to be following our trajectory. Probably should try get something for Cripps, send him to Fremantle. Not sure about his contact

    Review Dees v the Carlton Cheats: the Good, the Bad and the Ugly

    I was didn't watch but was listening to the radio and it sounded as if it was played in Melbourne's half. We had a massive amount of inside 50s and a commentator joking said, 'just like the old days'. Which is exactly what I was thinking, sounded Goodwin esq. We had some good looks but sounded...

    Review Dees v the Carlton Cheats: the Good, the Bad and the Ugly

    Small sample size but losing Trac and Oliver does mean we have to rely on our lesser lights and some youth to get the job done. It's going to be tough against the best teams like what we saw against Fremantle, but against lower ranked teams I think it will be highly successful. I think both our...

    Player Watch #32: Tom Sparrow

    Unlike yourself on other players, most of us actually want to see him succeed. The thing we've seen him perform well at times but then disappear for the rest of the season. I've actually defended him multiple times, even said he was far from the worst player last week when some people were...

    There's a word for the way you a feelin', it's less shame.

    Player Watch #32: Tom Sparrow

    Yeah he does have teasers from time to time but definitely his best game I can think of, certainly in the second half whichis what I watched. Wasn't even junk disposals that you don't notice throughout the game. He was winning ball and feeding our outside players. That's all he needs to do...

    AFL 2026 Round 3 - Blues v Demons Sun March 29th 3:15pm AEDT (MCG)

    Thought it was odd myself with plenty of time left, but I guess Carlton fans know their team the best. Was great for Swallow to come on the second half to do a job on Smith. Surprised he didn't get a carried off for his 250th as well.

    Review Dees v the Carlton Cheats: the Good, the Bad and the Ugly

    I was actually going to change my tip back but just couldn't be bothered. Felt validated after quarter time. Even when they got to 20 up thought oh well my tips right. Kind of just realised we kicked the next 7, that's an phenomenal effort.

    Mentioned that I was out and missed the first half. Came home and got the second half. I could watch the replay on kayo but..
