They are not a close knit group.
Wonder who will punching on with May on Monday.
They are not prepared to sacrifice for each other the way the Tigers did.
Thats why Collingfilth keep winning with a team full of *smile* trucks.

Ok @toothless and @Little Ziggyadee I get your response, but who out of who is left then?
Port?
Carlton or Collingwood?
The GWS plastic fantastics?
It is a very average bunch that is for sure.

Let's not forget the amount of benefits these silverspoons received from the AholeFL.
Pickett was very good as the game wore on. He's a terrified little *smile* but if he gets reported he gets braver. Props to him. Close to BOG.
But. This Kemp pretty much kicked five goals for Melbourne. And having *smile* Christmas a dozen times he went forward in the final quarter to redeem himself. He burnt everybody and bombed it oof. *smile*. Total *smile*.
To be fair to the total *smile* Voss should've played Marchbank deep and Kumt high. Notwithstanding that Kemp played one of the worst games in history.
But for him Carlton wins be five goals.

Just got home.
That, was one of the most incredible things I have ever seen (this statement's probably also going to look incredibly stupid - or it might not - once the emotion wears off, as I've travelled the world and seen some remarkable sights).
After jumping up and down in the final minute and at the siren, I found myself walking around in a haze as I navigated the 96,000-strong crowd out of the ground. Just on auto-pilot, in a state of complete and utter disbelief - catatonic, almost. Everywhere the ears pricked, the Carlton song was being sung boisterously by large mobs - inside and outside the ground.
I ended up a way away from where I was supposed to be, with nothing but the Pullman Hotel in the distance to guide me out of the dark MCG parkland and into the East Melbourne streets where the car was. It's amazing what the brain does when it's hit with unfamiliar levels of dopamine in a rush. I may as well have been floating.
I kept it all together in the final quarter when the game was tight. I had been resigned to losing a close one. I'd been vocal early but then as the screws tightened I more or less sat there reflecting on the season that was. Then the final couple of minutes rolled around. Something just took me over - perhaps the auto-pilot state hit in those late stages.
Loudest Carlton crowd I have ever witnessed. It was absolute mayhem on the siren. I was level one on the wing in the AFL members. Strangers hugging and high-fiving, beer seemingly drizzling out of the sky (had I died and gone to Heaven, where the rain IS beer?!) and the song just blasting out of the mouths of many.
Once in the car en route to the Eastern Fwy, car horns were beeping one after the other in triumph, scarves draped out windows, and supporters on the streets greeting one-another like they'd known each other for years.
It's been a long time since I've seen this side of footy. Last Friday night wasn't a patch on what tonight was. And the scary thing is, there are even greater highs footy can deliver.
I think I'll go and wander in a haze some more.

Haven't seen any of the game as I am away, but, gee, looks like Melbourne should have won but for a complete lack of a forward line. Oh well, that's what happens. Wonder why they don't play Grundy in the ruck (he's ok at that, not so good as a forward) and put Gawn forward? Could have been the difference.
Carlton will go in clear underdogs against Brissie but that may work in their favour. Carlton have nothing to lose and everything to win - no expectations at all. I reckon Voss will just tell them to have a crack and see what happens. This could be a big boilover if Carlton win it.
From here I just want the plastic fantastics to down Port, then Colliwobbles and go all the way.

How hard is it? .
Oct 2022 Melbourne list management meeting
Goodwin 'What do you reckon we need?"
Lamb 'We can't score in a brothel mate'
Goodwin 'OK let's go out and get a ruckman'
Lamb 'Great idea'
The worse list management decision in my 50 years of watching football.
What happened to the bumper stickers?

Has 3 daughters doesn't he? Needs the cash, can't go rocking the boat.
If they give out the medal for the best player of the finals, there needs to be some sort of recognition for the worse.
Seriously did Langdon break the record for 'on the fulls' last night??
He was useless.
Saleem, Seriously he has the best feet in the comp, I've never seen a player side step more body contact then this bloke.
Melbourne's bottom 5 are very average
And considering 8 days ago they were favourites to win it, they would be absolutely gutted.
All because the recruiting blokes didn't do there job from 2021, and get a foward into the club.
They couldve traded Oliver for McKay and they might’ve had 2021, 2023 trophies in there cabinet

I could live with a Brisvegas / Gee Whizz, maybe at a stretch Pordadalayde grand final. No Colonwood or Carlscum would make for a quiet n peaceful aftermath.
These last 2 weeks has me worried about Yze potentially coaching the tigers.
The dees have seriously underperformed - something is not quite right at deeland, let alone the team selections, some tactics employed over the last 2 weeks, they don’t come across as a cohesive well run club.
Right now, what does he bring to our club that I have seen that gets me excited - he is a key part of a team that has the best ruckman in the league, 2 generational mids, 2 strong defensive pillars and I reckon they have more KPF to choose from compared to us, they are not injured they just can’t perform.
Underperformed, underwhelming…………Worried.

Worst on ground, and by a fair margin, two weeks in a row, has to go to MacDonanld, he was a new kind of useless
Haaarrrgh. The cook is gunna be mega pissed off this morning. She was bleating n moaning last weekend that there wasn't much in the Hun after Carlscum's first finals win in ages against Sydaknee. Grabbed the paper out of the driveway ( yes we're old n still get a real paper delivered ) and there is exactly 0, nada, big fat donuts not a *smile* thing in the paper about the Carlscum v Smelbourne game at all. 
Ooooh she's gunna be looking for someone to poke with a pointy stick, old fart might need to make sure he's got good clearance or a head start before he starts laughin this morn.

Spargo is very cool under extreme pressure Thinks his way through and hits targets
I’m starting to like you less and less now that the Blues are winning again.
But that is a better than fair description of the euphoria of winning. You’re going to have to keep to that standard if I’m going to pretend to like your posts.
