Same here. John Elliott - never forget. Lots of others too.

Curnow disgusting individual. Bleeding, but just wipes blood on his jumper and stays on.

Lemme guess, the commentators praised his toughness?

Good result for my tipping, but Carlton hardly convincing.

Didn't see the game.

Were the Tigers surprisingly good, or Carlton mediocre? Or a bit of both?

So many frees to Carlton. The 50 to DeKoning was not there and they goaled at a Crucial time. Yes, I picked Carlton in tipping, but Richmond really gave them a run for their money

Tigers were good. There were down 3 for the 2nd half and hung in there. Carlton weren?t mediocre but just couldn?t put them away. Not convinced by Carlton but they have an ability to win close games which is a top trait. For this reason plus the Curnow factor they will be thereabouts

It's not 1991 and everyone's scared of AIDS a la Magic Johnson. I get it's not a good look but I wouldn't be calling Curnow a disgusting individual over it. Our players do it all the time, all players do.

Carlton winning six games under a goal and everyone pretending they're amazing just says to me the competition is unbelievably close and everyone is vulnerable. A bit like Collingwood who lost to Hawthorn within a few weeks before we did last year, while we lost plenty under two goals.

Richmond were gutsy tonight, but, if you're going to lose a few and still be running at the end of the game it's in the first few rounds. Carlton should have put them away a bit earlier.

I wish we were ****ing something. Disgraceful the leg up some teams are getting in exposure to kick off the season.

Its the mistake his opponent for not making sure the umpire sees it.

Would you like someone else's blood all over you.

Re: AFL Game Day R1 - 2024

So I have a Carlton mate who says the umpiring was incredibly bias to the tigers and I know tigers fans who say the opposite . Which team did they actually favour ? The free kicks were 24-17 blues way but we all know it’s not necessarily how many you get but where you get them and how many were missed or given that were wrong.
