[Cyclops]

Alright, heavyweight clash time! Bring it on, this should be a pearler.

Hope we can both turn up, Blues to bring the first half blitz and Pies to bring sporadic flashes of class (ie only when Daics gets it).

 

[Mr Meow]

Both teams know that they won't be contending anytime soon for the first time in a while. It feels like more of a 2021 Carlton vs Collingwood clash. Sort of intriguing for that reason.

 

[Tadpole]

This could genuinely be anything. I can't pick it - we're both woeful at the moment.

 

[PiCkLeJuiCe]

Clash of the Titans

16th vs 13th.

With Carlton's inability to score in the second half and Collingwood's inability to score, the entire last half could be a goalless affair.

What more could you want?

 

[voorhees]

Carlton in another prime time game
really?

 

[JackFlash]

The Pies will clean up the Blues and Voss will really be on the chopping block after this one! Pies by 36 points!

 

[timokane]

Pies are ripe for the picking.
But Blues are so bad and are rotting and rotten.
Not sure who to tip here in this one.
Looking like an ugly game here.
Cool breezes with a few showers as well for the game.
For this one im on the fence.

 

[Cam Payne]

Thursday is a good night to go shopping. Draw.

 

[timokane]

Blues hate losing to the Pies more then anyone.
Irks them.

 

[schmuttt]

The MB thread will be glorious reading either way.

 

[Howard Littlejohn]

What other comedies do Seven have?

Voss will probably play you on a HFF and expect you to kick 7 goals.

 

[Cyclops]

Should put Toby Greene down there, then BT can comment "Green shoots, Vossy told us this would happen"

Jokes aside, no injuries would be nice for a start.

 

[Xtreme]

Draw

 

[RAPPA]

Two $hit teams on a Thursday night. Well done, AFL.

 

[PrancingPony]

Carlton will be lucky to get within 10 goals.

Collingwood will smash them.

 

[NetworkNerd]

Blues supporters are up and about and very confident. Hard to tip a winner here

 

[timokane]

need form in the vfl.

Bring in Hayes Parker West and Buller

Play Howe up forward.

Rotate mid field.

Shuffle things up forward.

MCG will get around a juicy say 87k Thursday night MCG.

Its on for young and old.

Classic blockbuster atmosphere as well.

 

[PiCkLeJuiCe]

Classic blockbuster atmosphere as well.

Nah.

Thursday night doesn't attract huge crowds
Carlton home game - expect many not to show up
Weather likely to be crappy

65,000 if weather is bad, just over 70,000 if it's OK weather.

 

[Fadge]

This will be a very, very interesting watch...

 

[timokane]

Weathers looking crappy folks cloudy showers type of weather and a tad chilly for the evening.
As with the Pies players seam to now forgot how to play through injury or anything.
A tad tight or anything they pull out.
Sidebottom did nothing little clutch and now out.
Piss weak.
They get paid as well.
Always to key players as well.

 

[My Tilly]

This will be a very, very interesting watch...

No it won't.
Collingwood are no longer relevant given they'll take a few years to rebuild and Carlton are Carlton.

Heavyweight clash??? It's 13th vs 16th. Yawn ........

 

[rdhopkins2]

Wouldn’t it be great to get a 95k+ crowd.
I think we will probably see 85k though.
Huge game given the rivalry between these two clubs. Season over pretty much for the loser.
