[SBYM]

I'd be stoked to go down by just two goals a qtr...

Predicting much worse.

 

[puntking]

swans easy 50+ in this

Don't the mods usually put this up in their megathread?

It won't be as bad as you think. Ground will be very wet from last night

Wind will probably dry it quickly.

I am very interested in seeing how the Swans go as we are playing probably our youngest team in years.

Wind helps but I can't see it being as dry as anything it bucketed down last night. Hope it is a dry track though beautiful day for footy- wind will be annoying though we are bad enough kicking at goal when it isn't windy.

Very interested to see how Foote, XR, and a few others go. Would like Marsh back soon though.

 

[Fadge]

Sydney will be angry, and with 4.3% separating 4th and 7th on the ladder it's gonna be ugly for the Carlton faithful this afternoon.

Expect a very scrappy contest. The wind is very blustery, though otherwise it's a beautiful day here in Sydney. Ground looks fine, not damp or muddy at all.

I must have slept pretty soundly last night because I wasn't aware of any heavy rain in Syney's east, though I did encounter plenty of puddles on the way to the ground.

 

[Bokonon]

I never got the Swans rivalry thing but go Carlton. They're vulnerable without Tippett. Have great day Lachie, when it's your turn just remember Franklin is an opportunity to make a reputation. Guessing the Carlton fans will have to shout louder at the SCG than they did at Spotless.
We need less competition for the top 4 anyway.

 

[Smithdogmaddog]

Swans 60 plus

 

[Blues_Man]

Carlton v Buddy methinks

 

[dumb]

sydney by eleventy squillion. just hope the kids do their thing, and get an up close look at the professional outfit that sydney are.

 

[Malifice]

Carlton look on early.

 

[JeffDunne]

Carlton look on early.

They've certainly setup well.

Not giving Sydney any space. Great team D.

 

[bkozican]

I only need Carlton to lead for 1 qtr.

Sydney have a tough time against Richmond and on that basis...I believe the blues have a chance

 

[The City Boyz]

Very good crowd in...

 

[Ruby_Belle]

Basil's commentary is getting worse and worse. How do channel 7 pay him to dish up this dribble?

 

[ajdude]

not sure what Graham could do there.

 

[bkozican]

Tough call

 

[DaVillaBlues]

Ed Curnow is our best so far imo

 

[Mr Meeseeks]

Richards makes the most of his second free shot at goal.

This one could get ugly for Carlton, they seem to be low on energy lately.

 

[ajdude]

geez that's a good grab

 

[JeffDunne]

The umpire paid holding the ball because a team mate was involved in holding the ball in.

 

[Nice n Crispy]

Great mark
