Pittonet plays on, there's little impact on the game, reprimand?


Lordofpepper

Narrative for the week: Blues only lost because of injuries, and those swans meanies who beat them up


CommissionerOfLunacy

Naaa. Narrative for the week is more of the same: Swans terrifyingly good, clear flag favourites. Good win, that was really impressive.

Eagles gave you a run for your money too!

They looked good after that game though and during did the eagles


PluggersLeftBall

cannot wait to see who we choke the grand final to this year


pittyh

Pies of course, but really you think you're guaranteed a Grand Final spot? lol


dono1783

No doubt it will be a Vic team playing at home on their home deck, in their home state. But that doesn't matter in the GF ok.

He was for sure running on adrenaline/hamstring awareness. Dude was hyper at the end there and will be crashing as we speak.

I LOVE ISAAC HEENEY <33333


FlagmantlePARRAdise

I love it when Carlton chokes.


CommissionerOfLunacy

Oh, you're still around! Fantastic.


FlagmantlePARRAdise

Serves Carlton right for robbing us.


CommissionerOfLunacy

Oh, you think all your bitterness has an impact beyond making people laugh at you! 😂 Shit, that's adorable. Bless.


FlagmantlePARRAdise

Can't wait for Carlton to fall flat on their ass during finals. Refs won't save you there.


CommissionerOfLunacy

Happily the rest of us don't need to wait. We get to see y'all fall flat every second week.


iamstephano

It's not choking when you're down almost the entire match


Shootinputin89

We were never the favourites and are missing heaps of players. Didn't choke at all. Freo are just shit every week.


julesytime

Define choke


racistanndsexist

When they gag on the amount of goals the swans just shoved down their throat.


Fragrant-Step-2245

Deez goals Ha!


augustin_cauchy

Ah sweet forgot how good the scg cameras are for my fellow ear-damage enjoyers


Lordofpepper

Blues percentage now looking essendon-esque


Icy-Rock8780

I don’t get why you’d leave early when your team is winning. Just enjoy it for two seconds why you in such a hurry to get home? Crowd thins out pretty quick after a game anyway


kashbra

44K people at the stadium, one light rail line to Central Station. I don't want to stay another 10 extra minutes to add one hour to my commute time. We were well ahead, no point stay till the end.


Equivalent-Ad7207

Yuck. You stay till the end grab a beer and within 30 mins crowds are gone.


Icy-Rock8780

Meh, between the frequent services on that light rail, the event buses and the people walking to central/Redfern (a pretty manageable walk) it always seems to flow pretty well in my experience. I usually just walk to central though, so if that’s not an option to you then I guess it makes sense. Personally though if I’m at the game for a statement win like that I don’t really care how long it’s going to take me to get home, I’ll just soak up the vibes as long as I can. How I’m getting home won’t even really occur to me until the event is well and truly over.


nolanite27

It’s a nightmare trying to get out of the SCG general area if you’re driving


CaptainObviousBear

Or if you’re not driving

R_W0bz

The only two things Sydney siders care about, their property value and avoiding traffic. A lot of bandwagoners when the team is winning.

Wincrediboy

Fuckin BT. Cerra does not make a 52 point difference


AHinchley

The harping about Carlton's injuries is just laughable. They were missing two elite players -- Saad and Cerra -- and a bunch of eminently replaceable guys. You'd think they were missing Cripps, Curnow, and Walsh, for heaven's sake.


UNSURE895

Not to mention we're missing mccartin and mills


Wattobot92

Just your daily reminder that Richmond beat the swans 😂


mrr6666

Loss we had to have 🥴


nolanite27

Oh my God, shut the fuck up about injuries.


MannerNo7000

DID YOU KNOW CARLTON HAVE INJURIES?


nick170100

Richmond fuck you


Soggy_Traffic_5107

Nah that game was the kick up the ass we needed


Such_Possible_4103

not sure whether that was a good game or not lol


ElChapoDola

it's ok blues only the best teams can beat sydney

SPRiNTERau

Grundy happy af he is up in the harbour city


IDreamofHeeney

Fuck we are good


Soggy_Traffic_5107

Wet dreams tonight


Eltnamerf

Makes me feel better about last week. Too bad we kicked ourselves out of it, sucks about the circumstances too


Nervous-Worth-8005

Is it time to admit that Carlton are just a mid team this season? If a few lucky close wins go the other way that aren’t even close to being in the 8.


Shootinputin89

That team is more than just mid, it's shit. Thankfully, we're getting key players back in over the next couple of weeks.


Nervous-Worth-8005

No doubt injuries are hurting but they were just outplayed after quarter time tonight.


skywideopen3

Yeah they seem very one note. If Cripps and Walsh don't win a shit ton of contests and then just pile it forward to Curnow and McKay - to be fair it's a really good plan A, but what exactly is their plan B?


Nervous-Worth-8005

Yep exactly, they don’t know what to do when the other team gets some momentum. Great wins for the swans nevertheless!


Crooty

It’s our first big loss. All the other losses were also nailbiters. I have no fucking clue what to make of this club


anon_account97

Can’t be having blokes on our list that rely on winning for possessions. Absolute dogshit


eagleeyedpixel

Can we see the whale again. I was a lot happier when the whale was around.


Temporary_Ad8560

Obviously it's about playing well in September and not May, but to completely dust any team in the top 8 we've played has my goolies feeling nice.


UNSURE895

Beat every team currently in the top 8 none even close


UNSURE895

Nvm I lie haven't played port yet or essendon I think


ausroachman

Carlton are also missing fevola and chris judd


dadOwnsTheLibs

And a good coach


eagleeyedpixel

We know they’re coming.


No_Zookeepergame6976

😂


nick170100

Not to be cocky or anything but literally who is gonna beat us ? All challengers have been beaten Got Geelong left


dadOwnsTheLibs

Who is gonna beat us? Whoever we face in the grand final


britishmilhouse

Just gotta lose to or draw with Hawthorn and you'll be guaranteed the premiership. [The last 4 premiership teams have either lost or drawn with Hawthorn](https://www.reddit.com/r/AFL/comments/1ctxxzi/the_last_4_premiership_teams_have_either_lost_or/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)


FlagmantlePARRAdise

If freo weren't dealing with their teamates death then we would have had a decent chance of beating you. It felt like we were all over you in the midfield and were defending solidly but the forward line was just atrocious that night.


dadOwnsTheLibs

Understandable. But we still won the expected score by more than 2 goals


Icy-Rock8780

And who knows how much better you would’ve played if Freo mounted an actual challenge on the scoreboard


Icy-Rock8780

Bro you lost by 48 points


Korzic

North probably.


Icy-Rock8780

Richmond


anon_account97

Needed Durdin out and Binns in


MannerNo7000

NOBODY WATCH ROAMING BRIAN, don’t give him viewership!


BlandyBoreton

Swans playing so well that they’re would be no shame in resting players and potentially dropping next weeks game…whoever it’s against.


SPRiNTERau

Hey….wait a minuteeeeee


Fellasisitgaytolive

#REDDITS SHITTING ITSELF (Again)

Yung_Focaccia

Honestly impressive running effort from Wicks there


floopyfloopyfloo

Carlton right now: "Not gonna lie, this shit was some good exercise. It's good to get out, get the pen working"

Apathetic420

Roaming Brian in the Swans room? Holy fuck he might actually cry!!!


SkinMasturbator

god what a ridiculously talented midfield to keep Luke Parker the bull out of the side. Swans have such good problems of who gets into that midfield


AHinchley

Exactly. Tonnes of our supporters want Parker in but who do you drop from this team?

This is such high pressure, high intensity garbage time.


Deathpacitoes

Feels like we should have scored more than 117


Fellasisitgaytolive

Oh no the repeats back.


breadabuser

Just realised that Isaac Heeney sounds like 'a zucchini'


ALFisch

Don't waste this genius in the match thread!


breadabuser

We must spread the word in more relevant threads!


RampesGoalPost

Zook!


AuZyzz

groundbreaking


Tosslebugmy

Why not do Sydney’s injuries? Mills, McCartin, even Reid.


skywideopen3

Reid isn't so much injured as non-corporeal


AdAcrobatic5178

I mean when was the last time Reid wasn't injured


Tosslebugmy

That’s why he had the qualifier.


anon_account97

What I need to know is, does Essendon play Sydney for the rest of the year and is it at the SCG. I need something to hope for.


Chaos_098

We already played Sydney in Sydney. Half the margin in this game.


skywideopen3

You put a full hundred points on us. No other team has gotten even vaguely close before or since, even Richmond won mostly by shutting down our ball movement.


Tosslebugmy

Why not do Sydney’s injuries? Mills, McCartin, even Reid.


Such_Possible_4103

fucking luke parker is out


Tosslebugmy

No he’s not, he wasn’t selected. Big difference


Tosslebugmy

No he’s not, he wasn’t selected. Big difference


Such_Possible_4103

eh fair point, he was injured 👍


Tosslebugmy

You’re going well when Parker isn’t getting a game


Braddd771

Not injured


Such_Possible_4103

well he was hahaha


MannerNo7000

Do Carlton have injuries? Haven’t heard it yet from the commentators?


HistoricalCommon8643

Maclean is a sneaky good field kick tbh.


Wincrediboy

Yeah I think McLean looks a lot better than his stats ever show. Good positioning, structurally important, good vision and can occasionally get off the chain up front


Soggy_Traffic_5107

Walsh pick it up. Ya sook


AdAcrobatic5178

Gotta love how instead of paying that 50 they decided to just not pay the mark


Icy-Rock8780

You know they’re clutching at straws a bit when they mention that Jack Silvagni is also out


-orangejoose-

Who else is out Richo


TasSixer

Kernahan is out


Tony_Soprano5981

They aren’t missing much realistically stop the cope Richo


Such_Possible_4103

how many times are they going to mention injuries for carlton lol


TasSixer

Richo trying to find anything


Crooty

Hey guys remember when we kicked those 4 goals in the first quarter?


Such_Possible_4103

it was 5 to be fair, and they were a good 5 goals


zmax532

Channel 7 will never run of out a list of excuses


MannerNo7000

Why is Issac still out there??!


UNSURE895

Brownlow votes, coaches votes


Deathpacitoes

We get it, five Carlton first teamers are injured


mattamb

Actually about 9


mattamb

Actually about 9


lolmanic

Scary thing is, we have McCartin, Mills, Parker and now Fox out. Lol


Snoo24144

It’s not Walsh’s night is it


HairyMootWarrior

Suns are gonna clap Carltons cheeks next week

I hope not. The suns can’t get in as the roof is closed at Marvel.
