ROUND 13 BYES: GOLD COAST SUNS * GEELONG


​

King’s Birthday Rivalry Clash

This Sunday, Carlton and Essendon will reignite their fierce rivalry when they face off in the inaugural King’s Birthday Rivalry Clash. Sharing a rich history, Round 13 will mark the 252nd time the clubs will meet. For the first time ever, the 32 premiership cups from both Carlton and Essendon will come together, with an opportunity for fans to take photos. In a throwback to the passionate 1990’s rivalry, food prices will also reflect those of the 90’s starting with pies at $2 before the first bounce. As the two most successful Clubs in AFL history, we encourage all footy fans to come down and celebrate this new era on a very special night.

[Don Won]

Will be won by the team that can bomb it the longest, more often.

[HirdyLannister]

Vossy's farewell game, let's all get around him!!!

 

[JackFlash]

I think both sides are ordinary, but the Blues have to win sometime. Blues by 15 points

 

[Rioli2Rioli]

2 Meter Peter will be back combined with Phillips & Draper this could be testing the Blues ability to compete in the Ruck and defence

Charlie & Harry will test the undersized bomber defence

When is Parish due back and is Shiela playing after coming off early

Feeling Jakey Stringer is due for a big game

 

[HotPiesWithSauce]

Bombers are at least in winning form, Carlton are so low on confidence and have forgotten how to score

Essendon by 30

 

[Power Raid]

blues by 7 in a tight one

 

[CasuallyDressed]

Essendon by 10 goals - easiest pick of the week.

 

[Corn Cobbers]

Essendon by 10 goals - easiest pick of the week.

Agreed, it'll be a joyous night for Bomber fans and goodbye to Michael Loss.

With 2MP back they could throw Langford back if needed.

Pub, beers and another coach sacking. I'll be there, can't wait!

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Pub, beers and another coach sacking. I'll be there, can't wait!

We got Bolton sacked and Hardwick quit so can see it happening

Want a coach sacked? just call Essendon on 1800 EFC

 

[Great8]

At least we try to score, Carlton under Crazy Vossy just wants to play ring around the Rosie.
If Carlton do manage to decide to attack I do fear for our undersized defenders and could easily see Charlie and Harry getting half a dozen or more shots on goal each which is big trouble.
Think we will win by 4-5 goals though

 

[Monco Matt]

This is going to be an intriguing contest. Both teams are flakey at best so I think this is a pretty even matchup.

I think the Blues will finally break their run of losses and squeeze over the line here. It is only a matter of time before Curnow & McKay and others actually kick straight and the team reaps 15.7 instead of 7.15 or something like that. The Dons can be awesome with ball in hand when they have their day but like we saw on the weekend they can be away with the fairies just as easily.

The Blues work ethic I think is a little bit better. They will keep plugging away with Walsh, Doc, Cerra & Cripps giving their forwards more opportunities.

I'd like the Dons to win just to heap more pressure on Voss and Carlton as it is enjoyable to watch the fallout but I think they will get it done this time.

Blues by 14 points.

 

[timokane]

carlton win in a tight close one by 5 points

 

[HirdsTheWord]

this game is utterly massive for us. Need to show up ready to play 4 qtrs. if we want the win.

Carlton are too good though to stay down for too long, even if their game plan is s**t, they just have so much talent. So the pessimist in me says this is the game where Carlton play back into form.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Surely and I mean surely Carlton actually give a toss this week

So watch them lose by 7 goals.

 

[Rioli2Rioli]

Watching this game will be like watching 2 drunks have a fight

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Watching this game will be like watching 2 drunks have a fight

With the added bonus of watching McKay kick for goal

 

[windyhill]

Watching this game will be like watching 2 drunks have a fight

Checks results, a draw and a one point loss against the drunks

 

[Rioli2Rioli]

Checks results, a draw and a one point loss against the drunks

With a stomach full of premierships last 6 years

compared to 20 year rebuilds

 

[windyhill]

With a stomach full of premierships last 6 years

compared to 20 year rebuilds

But still ahead on the premiership count. Where have you been ?? Haven’t quite pulled out the begging bowls ala richmond in the early 90’s.

 

[gunbarrelstraight91]

Eagerly awaiting this game, also love the fixture of Sunday night before kings birthday, similar feel to the Anzac eve game.

Could go either way this one

 

[Seb78]

Our midfield is depleted, Blues should win, and win quite comfortably.

Also, our undersized defenders, will struggle against Curnow and McKay.
