Opinion Non-Crows AFL 10

[spenze]

I don’t think so, haven’t they already said to carr it’s his from 26?

They never mentioned which century

 

[MrBarry]

The talent pool has been spread so thin in the AFL having 3 stars will keep you up there.

As a non - Victorian team you need more than that to win a flag at the G imo. Need an a grader across every line.

Nicks will be sacked before Hinkley.

End of next year. Ken will be extended again.

Nah

Koch doing AA breakfast.


Koch throwing Jase Burgoyne under the bus.

"Lost the moments, when Jase fell over and they got that easy goal"


Like Tredrea last night blame the players, no mention of Ken.


But can blame a 20 year old kid.

He knows they lost by 36 points right?

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

They're lucky Hawthorn fell over

 

[SugarShane]

Oh and Dixon had one disposal for the match, a handball.

But did he "bring the ball to ground"?

How that fraud convinced anyone he was a premier forward has me beat. Huffs and puffs and has tattoos and that's it.

 

[Crows I Am]

Big Game for Dixon last night

 

[FullyBigKPro]

Good to see Poort truly exposed last night. They are the most overrated fraudulent team by a long long way.

 

[I Lost My Keays]

I thought Dixon had a good game

For two top 4 sides, this is a great game to highlight how diluted the talent pool is.

Some very ordinary players on both sides for two top 4 sides.

Elite National Competition my arse.

Port isn’t a top 4 side. End of story.

They have played 8 games at home out of 12 and have a 5-3 record and two of those wins were against Freo (3 points) and Hawthorn (1 point) and nearly got run over by Geelong (6 points).

They may be 8-4 but they so easily be 5-7.

How do people not see this? They are the opposite of us - they win the close ones, we lose them.

 

[kirky]

And another thing - I thought this game was close to a sellout?

Crowd - 40,532

A Thursday night, a big drawing Vic side, not raining (didn’t rain all afternoon).

We get 40,965 against a bottom 4 side on a Sunday twilight game.

WTF!

 

[kirky]

I said last night… port have beaten 14th 15th 16th 17th and 18th. They lost to us 12th. Collingwood and Melbourne and now Carlton. They beat Essendon but Essendon are an anomaly having only played lower 8 teams as well. Neither they or Essendon are actually as good as their ladder position says they are.

And they have played 8 games at home.

Both Essendon and Port are frauds.

WTF!

And there would have been at least 4-5k Carlton fans there last night too

 

[kirky]

And one more thing, Carlton had never beaten either Port or Adelaide at Adelaide Oval since we both moved there in 2014.

Well thank you very much Port - bunch of flogs!

 

[Moonwatcher]

Didn't realise how damn close that top 8 is.

Carlton temporarily in the top 4

Carlton started the round equal 4th and 8th on percentage

Still feels like Collingwood will get a run on and finish top four. Injuries their concern though.

 

[Geoffa32]

I don’t think so, haven’t they already said to carr it’s his from 26?

Did they say 2026, or just a plan in place?


Why would Ken give up a very lucrative job if they make Finals this year and next?


And they will.

This is the story under Ken's coaching since 2013.

They win enough games beating up on bottom 10 sides to get good ladder position.

But struggle against sides who don't let them win free ball.

Not giving it up but with no results in 119 years he really should be sacked, but port obviously don’t think Carr is ready just yet or they’d sack Hinkley.
They aren’t going to go with another coach for a year.

Yeah that’s surprising, there would have been a decent Carlton turnout

Yes we are a larger club with more supporters, not a big surprise given it’s been that way for 30 years.

without looking I'm sure they have 80% of games in Vic giving them a great chance.

Reckon you’re wrong on Essendon. They started the year with some doubt, they are banking wins which brings confidence and belief for a team like them.

I can’t see any deficiencies with their team, strong forward line, midfield and defence plus a decent coach.

Unlikely they’ll win it but they will beat some decent teams and cause some issues for the rest of the year and finals.

Haven’t beaten any teams of not so far other than GWS. We shall see but their % says a lot.
