Sounds like unless you have Foxtel, you may not be able to see (on TV) Carlton lose a game all year...

Heh, true. Probably not a bad thing, though we shall have to rely even more on the good folk around here like Wookie for replays, 'highlights' and GIFS of every time Cripps fires a handball through hyperspace and/or over his head..

I hope when we are performing well again and the AFL come knocking with the line "oh please come back and play on Friday nights" we say "that's ok as we are happy on Saturdays and up yours"

We are Carlton f#$k the rest.

They will schedule us however it suits them unfortunately. Playthings.

The Calton dilemma -
1. sign up for Foxtel to take your medicine at home in 2016 or
2. take the cheap option and buy a CFC membership risking public embarrassment at matches

Option 2.....always option 2.

We're a family orientated club now... We'll keep Saturday arvos on Free to Air thanks.

Agree, soak it all in....it will make the victories sweeter.

Plus rebuilds aren't as bad as when you come last after your coach announcing we will be undefeated.

There will be plenty of things to watch next year, Cripps, Kreuzer and the 4 kids we take top 20.

3. Exile oneself in the Northern Hemisphere over 'summer'.

That's what I did - Canadian adventure in July-September 2013 - arrived back home for the Grand Final 8 kilos lighter.

YEs, holidays are expensive.

Stating the obvious but club needs to focus on what they can control. Better time-slots will come with better on-field performance.

Yeah foxtel is a must to watch carlton games in the west. Watching carlton lose is better than not watching at all.

 

[Dramoth]

It's never good to watch Carlton lose... Live or on TV

 

[jimsta10]

I'd rather we played more games at the G...than playing a Friday a night game...

 

[Cringle]

Hoping for a game in Adelaide and two games in Queensland.

 

[Lace_Out]

AFLPA stepped in re no friday night games. Apparently the lights were emitting too much heat and they were worried about Cripps burning his head.

True jimsta10. Do we have a 50/50 split between MCG & Etihad for our home games next season?
When is the CFC going to be able to play all its home matches at the MCG?

Never. 23 rounds is a maximum 69 games split between 9 Melburnian clubs.

What Azul said. Plus, it will also depend on how many home games will Victorian clubs will sell up to play interstate (Melbourne, Western Bulldogs, Norf, and us) this amount will not be know until clubs have sent in there proposals to the AFL and negotiate $$ to sell of their games.

I think we will play less games at Etihad in 2016 as compared to this year (fingers crossed).

We need more Carlton people going, couldn't believe some crowds this year.
At least the old facepainter had room to stretch out.

 

[Bluejob]

Can't request/demand MCG games when we pull the crowds we've been pulling.

I switch off just before the final siren so I don't watch us lose, I just watch us losing.

Or you could purchase a season pass on the AFL website and watch the games online. Costs like 90 odd bucks and from what I hear they will be allowing customers to watch from their laptops next year, not just smart phones and tablets.

OMG ODN! Don't tell me you missed the end of our round 17 clash with Hawthorn? We kicked 23.1 in the last 30 seconds to win by a point.

It was the most exciting end to a match ever and importantly it finally broke our Hawks curse...

Can't believe you didn't see the end.

Our split is 6 home games at the MCG and 5 at Etihad.

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

I miss winning games

 

[AceAndy]

Yep losing sucks big time

 

[Aphrodite]

It used to be 6 home games at Etihad and 5 home games at the MCG.
