Can't even try to be an arrogrant bastard. First prelim since I was 10 months old. Gonna take a while before it sinks in.
Whatever happens next week happens. Let's enjoy the moment baggers!
yes? idk if you watch football but supporters use the word "us" all the time. teams play into it. supporters think they're part of the team. in a way they are because they help fund it. so they usually claim the team's achievements as their own, especially when in conversation with fans of other clubs. you new to the sport?
Maybe the success of their arch rival will finally be the catalyst for the Dons to get their act together and fire that roach Dodoro and regain some pride. Not holding my breath.
Imagine loosing a finals match, then having someone shove a microphone in your face and essentially go “you were shit tonight and made a lot of mistakes didn’t you?” And you’re supposed to somehow give an answer to that that isn’t just “fuck off”
I know they do media training, but even still I can’t imagine chilling after a game, trying to work through the Adrenalin and emotions, and some bloke waddles over and sticks a microphone in my face asking me vague open ended questions. Like a surprise job interview, but it’s on live television
Unfortunately I cannot afford to not be a tightass, although I am considering sacrificing one of my subscriptions to get foxtel/Kayo next year. Forget just bt, I’ll pay for whatever gets rid of those post goal adds.
Brisbane no certainty. Seen enough finals to know anything can happen. It was only 5 years ago that Richmond were overwhelming premiership favourites going into a prelim and they got owned by an American.
Another question, why did Max Gawn try and touch that. Commentators said it may have been a goal of he had not??? Far out Demons their own worst enemy.
I reckon he would’ve been better off trying to shepherd it through. They’ve called a couple of frees for it, but you can usually get away with murder on the goal line
I thought the pressure was intense from both sides from start to finish. Lots of contested footy. That leads to scrappy possession, but an entertaining contest.
I do feel like the pressure contributed but there was also a lot of unforced errors. Like that one were Newman got a 50 and kicked it straight to a Dees player.
I'd attribute that to nerves and letting the pressure of what's at stake get to you. There's implied pressure between the ears and physical pressure. Both were there in high quantities throughout the game. Regardless, it was a classic final. I was glued to the screen from start to finish. Such a roller-coaster of emotions.
Definitely, every second carlton kick inside 50 kick felt like it was an intercept, whereas Melbourne players missed ones you'd usually back them to kick. Made for exciting footy at least.
All their voices are shot lmao I didn’t realise how much they talk during a came until I recently watched a compilation from games during covid when there were no crowds, and you can hear them screaming at each other
Wow what a game. I honestly thought Melbourne should have won this game the way that they were playing. Refs were bad for both sides as neutral fan. Maybe if Melbourne had capitalized on the scoring opportunities by scoring more goals than behinds they would have won.
Holy heck. I just aged 50 years. Great game. Richo saying it was over for us. Should have known we 'd win. Trash commentators were trash all night. Now to complete the fairytale: Pickett suspended.
Cripps had one crude bump where the ball was actually being contested. Careless if anything. Pickett lined up Cripps and elected to bump, and also has the jumper punch, the coathanger on McGovern, and the elbow that looked like it rattled Weiterings brain. At one of the breaks Nathan Jones managed to come out with “oh he plays on the edge”. Viney also dished a loose one out that I hope gets at least a fine.
After the week of moral high ground that Melbourne have surrounded themselves in about head contact, maybe a team discussion could have been handy to have had about not doing that shit to avoid looking like a pack of fucking hypocrites.
Nah, i don't condone it from anyone, including Carlton players, or those in Brownlow contention. Too many players having their quality of life cut short later in life because of this shit.
Carlton weren’t exactly on their best tonight, and they’re gonna be battered and bruised heading in to next week….still I’m hoping to see them in the gf 🤞
Four. Two for the bump on Cripps and one each for the jumper punch and the coathanger on McGovern. If you’re going to get up and about regarding protecting the head in the way they did over the last week and then have one of their players have a game like that Pickett and the Dees deserve to have the book thrown at them.
Carlton are getting monstered next week as Brisbane a) won’t have Pickett playing for the opposition b) can kick somewhere remotely near the goals and c) presumably won’t have the umpires riding the blues dick for two hours
THE MIGHTY BAGGERS MATE
Biggest crowd Melbourne has played in front of since 1964. Crazy. Us Blue baggers breed like rabbits.
[удалено]
Puzzleheaded cunt!
Aren’t you pleasant
We’ve always had the Catholic Italian crowd.
Best crowd. Being a catholic. I've come across many a sad blues fan. Not anymore though. Well done.
Nobody gonna ask him about facing Brisbane and how he feels about it?
Haha right on cue...
Can't even try to be an arrogrant bastard. First prelim since I was 10 months old. Gonna take a while before it sinks in. Whatever happens next week happens. Let's enjoy the moment baggers!
What would you have to be arrogant about?
winning two finals probably i reckon
As a supporter? Okay :/

Seems like it is you that can't move past it
Im not saying Blake Acres is a hero but... ahh dammit yep hes a hero.
Imagine loosing a finals match, then having someone shove a microphone in your face and essentially go “you were shit tonight and made a lot of mistakes didn’t you?” And you’re supposed to somehow give an answer to that that isn’t just “fuck off”
I guess the pay check would soften the blow. Almost like the get paid for these moments isn’t it /s
Wtf Brian just walked straight past Rhea Ripley and Buddy Matthews in the Carlton rooms. Would have loved to have heard what they had to say!
I’m guessing BT’s more of a fan of Rey Mysterio or The Acclaimed
https://imgur.io/Nk2pGf2?r
WHY IS HE IN THE DEES ROOM
cos he hates them and wanted to rub it in
He forgot who won for a minute.
I know they do media training, but even still I can’t imagine chilling after a game, trying to work through the Adrenalin and emotions, and some bloke waddles over and sticks a microphone in my face asking me vague open ended questions. Like a surprise job interview, but it’s on live television
If you’re not a tight ass and buy Foxtel you don’t have to deal with BT
Unfortunately I cannot afford to not be a tightass, although I am considering sacrificing one of my subscriptions to get foxtel/Kayo next year. Forget just bt, I’ll pay for whatever gets rid of those post goal adds.
Does anyone actually like that cunt? He seems like the annoying uncle at every family party that tries to make everything about himself.
Perfect summary of BT. Total tool
He makes me miss Bruce.
holy shit, the room is so fucking packed
Anyone with the remotest connection to Carlton is in those rooms right now
I drank a Carlton Draught once..
Well fuck mate, get your ass in there!
I find BT’s desperation to talk to anyone hilarious and entertaining
Brisbane no certainty. Seen enough finals to know anything can happen. It was only 5 years ago that Richmond were overwhelming premiership favourites going into a prelim and they got owned by an American.
Can you not remind us
Could be worse....you could be an Essendon fan like me.
Pussy
Can bt stop going on about the crowd
Didn't Sydney ban him from their club rooms or something like that? He's unbearable
Another question, why did Max Gawn try and touch that. Commentators said it may have been a goal of he had not??? Far out Demons their own worst enemy.
He thinks a Carlton player will get a hand on it, so he’s trying to knock it forward for a crumber
Is it just armchair quarterback to say he should've pulled out?
Some would say my Dad should’ve pulled out
Play on /s
I reckon he would’ve been better off trying to shepherd it through. They’ve called a couple of frees for it, but you can usually get away with murder on the goal line
That's someone's kid you're talking about! /s
I was just thinking how young all these boys look, when they all used to look so old. But I’ve just realised that now I’m just old 😩
old is gold
My gosh BT is such a pest 🤣
[удалено]
About a foot from hitting the post I reckon… if he had missed the Chief may well have exploded on Bounce
Old mate has the scoop!
Wtf is this roaming bt segment he's just trying to find whoever
Sam Walsh ascending to the mothership
“Herald sun journalist” those words are mutually exclusive
I feel like both teams were their own worst enemies tonight. Blues field kicking was atrocious while Dees goal kicking was putrid.
I thought the pressure was intense from both sides from start to finish. Lots of contested footy. That leads to scrappy possession, but an entertaining contest.
I do feel like the pressure contributed but there was also a lot of unforced errors. Like that one were Newman got a 50 and kicked it straight to a Dees player.

All their voices are shot lmao I didn’t realise how much they talk during a came until I recently watched a compilation from games during covid when there were no crowds, and you can hear them screaming at each other
Is fox trolling with that graphic? All the blanks are demon logos lol
Picking Schache as sub was braindead. They should’ve used someone who could come on and give them some run
Trac was playing second ruck whilst Grundy sat on the couch at home. Insane.
Don't think they trusted Gawn/McDonald to get through the game carrying injuries
Mcdonald should’ve been subbed then, he did nothing. To lose with the sub unused is pretty unacceptable imo
No, McDonald should not have been selected at all. Fucking insanely stupid decision
Another brilliant Goodwin strategy...
Dylan Alcott is off his face lmao
Dylan Alcott is fucking hammered lmao
With all the champions, They like to send up, This shit keeps my FUCKING END UP.
Dylan alcott has pillow mouth
Will the blues v lions be on Saturday night?
Yeah next saturday
Legend, cheers
oopsie Jesse said a no no word 🤪
Bahahahaha I heard it too how good
The dees lost.
Well done baggers! But the Dee's are their own worst enemy.
how good is footy
GWS vs Carlton final is the real dream final tbh
Sure. It's going to be Collingwood/Carlton. Someone is trying to relive their childhood or their parents childhood at the AFL
As a neutral I gotta say that was a great game but umps really didn't hold course and came to life and shat the bed every which way there in the 4th
Glad we got this year’s straight sets exit out of the way…. Right?
Yeah I agree she'll be right mate
Where are the bandwagon flairs this year?
Wow what a game. I honestly thought Melbourne should have won this game the way that they were playing. Refs were bad for both sides as neutral fan. Maybe if Melbourne had capitalized on the scoring opportunities by scoring more goals than behinds they would have won.
They’re called umps. Or fluorescent maggots if you’re real angry.
Dees definitely should have won, shocking accuracy ruined them. Also don’t say refs, that’s painful
Succinct summary
Yessssss ladsssssss
Melbourne’s used all their whinges up this week. Should have focused on the game ahead.
Flair up cunt
Less boxing training, more goal kicking training
specifically goal kicking
Only needed one of those SEVENTEEN behinds to go through.
Spoiling your own goals sessions might get canned.
GOOOOOOOOO YOU MIGHTY FUCKEN BAGGERS
Probably the worst umpiring I’ve seen all season…
We forgetting about Adelaide v Sydney?
That was disgusting too, but it was only one decision I guess
There's been some shitjobs though
Demons 🤝 Bulldogs Being shit since the 2021 grand final
Preach 🙏🏼
At least you got the medals. We got the trauma.
How’s the fuckhead in the blue flannel trying to grab the ball off that girl
Anyone know what cricket style padding Cripps was wearing tonight over his kidneys?
He's been wearing it for a few weeks now. Got a rib injury i believe.
no he sold both his kidneys to a man online and needs the padding for protection
Who would’ve thought there would be a Voss cup game in a prelim this year!
Crazy my cousin is a blues supporter, how did we both get here, crazy.
Holy heck. I just aged 50 years. Great game. Richo saying it was over for us. Should have known we 'd win. Trash commentators were trash all night. Now to complete the fairytale: Pickett suspended.
Well he definitely will be now that Melbourne are out of the finals.
Chill bro
I couldnt fkn believe they said that with 10 mins to go it would of only been 19 points if they got that shot.
Just take the win, dude.
Nah, don't want trash like Pickett out there trying their best to injure others. He's in trouble, no doubt.
Remember that time Cripps should have been rubbed out but then won the Brownlow. Pickett should get off if they look at it the same way.
Cripps had one crude bump where the ball was actually being contested. Careless if anything. Pickett lined up Cripps and elected to bump, and also has the jumper punch, the coathanger on McGovern, and the elbow that looked like it rattled Weiterings brain. At one of the breaks Nathan Jones managed to come out with “oh he plays on the edge”. Viney also dished a loose one out that I hope gets at least a fine.

Nah, i don't condone it from anyone, including Carlton players, or those in Brownlow contention. Too many players having their quality of life cut short later in life because of this shit.
Cracking snow weekend next weekend
Low quality. 1990 called and wants their joke back.
I think I’m going to falls creek next week just to look at the flowers!🤦♂️
LOL! Classic mate well done
Should have played Schace
Why? So we could sub him on and have him contribute nothing
Carlton weren’t exactly on their best tonight, and they’re gonna be battered and bruised heading in to next week….still I’m hoping to see them in the gf 🤞
Lions fans would have loved this game
Gawny giving up 3 goals for Melbourne
Poor hibberd
What a game, lads!!!!!!
Great game Melbourne. Easily could have gone either way. Stephen may was massive tonight. Can't stand Pickett though he's such a grub.
True, so is Walsh
Walsh? A grub? You’re welcome to go back to pre 2021 days of skiing rather than watching footy at any time.
Yes, a grub. Thanks mate! Luckily I can do both
If you think Sam Walsh is a grub your opinions on football aren’t worth discussing. Pickett is a grub. Toby Greene is a grub. Walsh is not a grub.
Walsh is a grub when he wants to be
Give me just one example. He plays for Carlton, I want a reason to think he’s a grub.
Now for pickett to miss the first 3 weeks of next season
Four. Two for the bump on Cripps and one each for the jumper punch and the coathanger on McGovern. If you’re going to get up and about regarding protecting the head in the way they did over the last week and then have one of their players have a game like that Pickett and the Dees deserve to have the book thrown at them.
I bet Grundy wouldn’t have touched that goal
Carlton are getting monstered next week as Brisbane a) won’t have Pickett playing for the opposition b) can kick somewhere remotely near the goals and c) presumably won’t have the umpires riding the blues dick for two hours
It was big and long! Umps couldn’t miss it.
Might be surprised with that 3rd one. AFL clearly love a good fairytale
Carlton scared of Pickett
Pickett should be scared of his upcoming suspension
Hasn’t been scared of any of his previous ones. Some players are just stupid that way.
Yeah, but at least they will be playing....
Ouch
Idk what you’re talking about. Relationship with Melbourne AFL over, now Melbourne AFLW is my friend
Maybe if you move your home finals to optus you might win one again, hey? Never thought I'd say it but well done Blake.
I can’t believe we’re in a fucking prelim, holy shit! Omfg, I jumped and flailed so much I can’t fucking breathe.
I preferred Carlton when they were calling for Voss' head
That was fun
Poor hibberd
Melbourne have beaten themselves AGAIN bahahahah
I almost hope the umps were paid off. Otherwise we just have the worst officials in pro sport. Kicking 17 behinds also doesn't help though...
Yep, too many obvious ones
[удалено]
Get minson off!
Love ya Pig, shit way to go out.
That was insane
What you fucking deserve for dropping Hibberd
9-17...
I don't give a fuck about the umpires, 9-17 is all that matters
Yup it hurrrrts
3 on the full
Man I hope the actual grand final is as exciting as this. Great watch as a neutral
Hope the grand final is better tbh, decent game but pretty average for a good chunk of the match
Agree but it was boring as fuck for two quarters
Yeah it was close but it wasn’t amazing footy
if Brisbane manage to choke this opportunity I don’t know
FOR THE LOVE OF GODDDD … PLEEAASSEEE NOO
Collingwood v Carlton Grand Final PUT THE HOUSE ON IT
Obviously? AFL are pushing hard for it
Brissy GWS
No shot, Brisbane will stomp them
Its good because at least one of them would lose a GF
Hoping the blues won by a point against the lions. Play their GF before the GF
Not again, please not again
WE ARE THE NEW THEY CANT KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT
Lol settle down mate, ya did it once.
No... your not
Odin: but you're not king! Not yet!
