How this big idiot in 33 keeps getting a gig is beyond me. Every time he touches it bad things happen. Voss should lose his job purely cause he keeps playing him

@aidancellini4 Having a laugh. AFL only care about banning actions when it's popular

Collingwood has successfully overturned Noah Howes’ 3-match suspension at the VFL Tribunal. He is free to play this week against Essendon on Friday.

@FOXFOOTY Why does the afl feel the need to do everything all the time? AFL going to become very NBAish if they keep expanding. Already a truckload of irrelevant games, adding more is suicide

AFL TIPPED TO EXPAND SEASON... AND TOLD 'TAKE IT TO AMERICA' Fresh details have emerged of the league's plans upon Tasmania's entry as the 19th team. A bigger home and away season is viewed as extremely likely - but the question is, how do you make the fixture work? One bold plan would involve games heading across the world. DETAILS >> bit.ly/41QgvEe

@7AFL They tried it in 2022 and it was a serious flop

"I think the AFL are looking at a Grand Final rematch (instead of Richmond v Carlton)." 🗣️ Caroline Wilson on the 2027 season opener

@JakeBenoiton Uses the ball well is a serious stretch. I get you want to cling on to something, but he isn't it. Carlton doesn't struggle defensively with tackling in the midfield, it's covering the ground when the game gets to the outside. Lord doesn't solve that problem

@BluesFans9 Lord uses the ball well and adds a defensive dynamic to Carlton’s midfield they need. 11 tackles and 30+ touches last week.

Carlton ins and outs OUT: E. Hollands, McKay, Pittonet, L. Young, O. Hollands IN: F. Young, L. Reidy, H. O'Keefe, Lord, Acres Happy to see Ollie stay home if he needs. Blues just hanging on by a thread. Acres and Lord brilliant last week in VFL. F. Young done more than enough.

@hasumpstuffedup So if he handball it through he's fine? Another dumb rule the afl have created making it harder for umpires

This is a correct decision. He had time and space before rushing it. Had the ball for over 4 seconds before it went over. #AFLEaglesFreo

@soraceboy458 If you think a player is going to play his whole career in one position, I got news for you. Putting them in different spots is quite literally developing players

We picked up O. Hollands in 2022 as a hard running winger In 2026, we’ve deployed him as a tagger for Nick Daicos This. This is why we are a bad football team Moronic coaching, once again not playing players to their strengths then being confused when we fail

@TimGossage @CarltonFCBlues The game has never been in worse shape, from an umpiring, administration, watchability point of view. These people at the afl are paid millions and get away with ruining the game

I know there’s bigger stories unfolding from the game tonight but any reason this wasn’t paid a free kick to Haynes in the lead up to Nick Daicos goal?

Carlton won't be a serious football team until young, Cowan, Carroll, kemp are all gone. Bottom 5-6 are all shocking and would be lucky to get a game at another club. But some of these guys are loved by our supporter group...

It's started already

@Candour100 He is another slow midfielder who can't use the ball. Should never have signed him again. If hew can't get a gig, neither should lord. Not an afl player

How does everyone feel about Cooper Lord not being selected? Fair to say our reserves side should field one of the strongest teams on Friday.

@JakeBenoiton Boyd has to stay. He's the only one that tries to generate any drive with his kicking

Carlton ins and outs OUT: HOK, Young, Boyd IN: Dean, Weitering, Hayward No VFL game so hard to gauge form. Hard thing about these is who goes as second ruck? Not against it being McKay at times? Could drop Kemp and keep Young if worried about it.

@soraceboy458 @pommyinozYT He is simply a dour defender that doesn't have many/any tricks. Sometimes you can't help a player who doesn't want to learn or can't

Seeing a lot of people talking about Cowan not being best 23 & needing to be dropped after last night @pommyinozYT called this in 2024 Seriously wtf do we do to these kids & why is it so predictable? Not giving up on Cowan, but hate seeing such talent continue to be ruined

@hasumpstuffedup Did the Collingwood player actually even complete the tackle? Reckon I've heard that a million times the last two nights. Umpires need to understand how to umpire wet weather games. Stop putting it back on fans. The umpires need to rely on cues has hurt the game

This was correctly umpired Maynard tackled immediately after he gathered the ball and tries to dispose. No prior + genuine attempt = play on Bolton has a clear prior opportunity but fails to dispose. That's HTB Well umpired. Fans need to understand the difference #AFLPiesFreo

@AFL Well you can see why we'd question it when you get blown off the park in 5 minutes of footy and your captain who just dominated a qtr is stuck with his hand up on the pine. Not hard to configure your rotations to get your best players in the right spots to start qtrs

Carlton coach Michael Voss has defended the decision to start captain Patrick Cripps on the bench to begin the second quarter. Read more from Voss' post-match press conference: afl.com.au/news/1493195

Simple fact is Carlton don't play a sustainable brand of footy. All goals come from stoppage and clearance early. Once that dries up, it's all over

Never been more disinterested in the sport. Grahame Swann (the saviour) and Andrew Dillion have a lot to answer for The rule changes, the horrid officiating, the fixture They're going down a very bad path

@JakeBenoiton Should be for only clear and obvious disposals. If you have to review to see who it come off, just throw it I

Last touch rule is broken. Just not what the game needed. It’s said every year but for me, feels like a foreign sport.

Cowan is useless
