      Just watched a stunning exhibition of rugby throwing by the Dogs. Does Treloar ever handpass legitimately? They throw it forwards, they throw it backwards and over their heads and are even adept at tunnel ball. The little man Daniel is an absolute gun at it. Can't wait to watch the masterclass in the 2nd half.

        It's really confusing for them when two interstate coaches have the same initials. The AFL should step in and demand that
        either Longmire or Longmuir have to change their name.

Yet somehow he's the bad guy? Hope he kicks a bag.
          I know, poor Levi had the temerity to want to continue his footy career after being cut by Carlton. I suspect some of
          the boo-ers don't even know why they are doing it, except the person beside them is doing it. And as we know
          that's always a great reason to do something.
          That goal Casboult slotted from behind the point post while everyone else was bickering at a ball up was goal of
          the year so far if you ask me.

            North aren’t going to win, but they’re giving the Dogs a tough afternoon. They’ll probably snag an upset to two before season’s end.

              If the club moved the player on, booing of that player is unjustified on that criterion.

                Carlton supporters keep booing ex players 20 years after they left. They still boo Tuohy for Geelong.

                  Maybe they were a few weeks behind and were reporting on our loss from earlier in the season ????????. But seriously that is inexcusable.
