They're up to 6, now. They may win 7 but they'll struggle against West Coast, Richmond and Geelong. With a bit of luck, they could get up to 14th. Dizzying heights for Carlton. I hope none of them suffer from vertigo.

Catch 22

For us, it would be better if they win 10 games this year as it might help us if Geelong, WCE ad Richmond all drop games to Carlton.

Posted this too soon. I watched St Kilda play last night. Carlton won't win 7.

Kayo's little scene-setter for last week's Adelaide Carlton blockbuster is "The Blues continue to win, and they could move up to 14th if they can secure another victory at the MCG against the Crows."

What a ride the bluebaggers are giving their supporters! No chance of any altitude sickness for them this year! It's the gentle curves of the Scenic Railway between 18th and 12th, rather than up and down the Big Dipper for Carlton. Still, it's what passes for "stability" at Princes Park.

So, everything is falling into place for the Blues in their assault on 14th, with St Kilda losing to Adelaide. Carlton's supporters will, I expect, all be very excited to see how this Big Match goes.

Sadly, the weight of expectations proved a little too much for the boys from Spudses Park. With the world watching to see whether they could grasp the nettle and push to 14th, they failed by the barest of margins (well, 24 points, really - but when you're as bad as Carlton, that's the barest of margins). They now, unfortunately, sit 16th.

No Daisy, no Carlton.

Sadly we'd have preferred it if Carlton won yesterday. And we'll also be hoping they can defeat Richmond this week coming. Shocked

But one thing thats funny from yesterday, was the Carlton supporters that got to Marvel early would have had to listen to our club song as the VFL team had a big win over the Northern Blues.

Sadly, it looks like the Carlton lads might struggle to reach 14th, now. They are two games and % behind North with just 2 games to play. Still, if they're as good as we think, they should be able to beat Geelong at Geelong by 130 points in the last round.

They fell about 190 points short of their aim against Geelong. Anyway, they finished a courageous 16th with 7 wonderful wins. This marks a turning point for them. They haven't won at least 7 games since 2016 and 2014. In 2017 and 2015, they went immediately backwards.

Here's hoping for more of the same from the boys from Spudces Park.

Good to see them spud it up off field, as well. They’re the popular pick for worst-performed club in the trade period. It’s not often that a club is chosen by good players as a “destination” club, only for them to fund that the public transport isn’t running.

Blues supporters at work not happy today.

Giving Daisy his marching orders for youth, but keeping 36 year old Simpson and bringing back 33 year old Betts.

Wanting to deliver Martin and Papley and strike out on both.

No free agency interest from anyone and losing Coniglio a couple months back.

Could have pick 4, but moved to 9. Luckily for them, the Crows dropped off. Too bad they didnt get in and win a final. After 9, their next pick is 43. So they have to get 9 right.

They have a new coach, but they've added nothing to the playing list.

Stranger things have happened, but I can't see them making the top 8. On their day, they could knock over a better team. But they wont be able to do it consistently. Just prey they dont knock us off.

Here’s a serious stat, courtesy of the AFL website: Casboult is the first player in Carlscum’s history to play 100 games wearing number 41. Great for them to have something to cheer about.

Another interesting stat might be which Carlscum player has won the most games wearing 41. Casboult sits on 37 wins, 1 draw and 86 losses from his 124 starts.
