Nice way to finish the season, the last two premiers and the Dogs knocking off the Tigers.

GWS have really fallen away with injuries robbing them of some key players - couldn't happen to a better mob.

They didn’t even put up a fight. Seriously disappointing.

Wouldn’t want to be a Carlton supporter next year , they look awful, I question Bolton. His game set up during the game was a white flag. Also how is Ross Lyon still in a job ?
A few coaches with question marks , usually the ones who’s sides just drop away in the last few games.
Wonder if Leon Cameron is under the pump also.
Hinkley is a one trick pony.

Again, for all those “we finished 7th” in 2016, we again would have been top 4 this year. Just shows how good the top 7 was in our premiership year

For all the stat lovers out there, Carlton somehow managed to win the inside 50 count in a 104 point defeat.

Actually made me laugh the week we played them , one of the “experts” said they were top 5 or number one for some stat all year And we would have to beat them in that category to win, well how come they were number 1 but only won two games for the year obviously no other team had to beat them in that stat to win!
Stats are just that , stats , I can’t watch half time on fox footy anymore due to David kings rant on stats to justify a team winning, you can turn any stat to favour an arguement eg tackle count , one minute they are losing because of not tackling then they are winning because they have the ball more thus less tackles. Drives me insane how they just keep rolling out inane stats during games and you see them at the top of the screen rattling through them where the score should be, often I’ve looked at a stat thinking it’s the score!
