Robert Heatley Stand / Re: Run Home
Last post by townsendcalling -If Freo are 2 games clear on top at Round 24, they will rest half of their team rather than risk injury. Maybe an unexpected W.
Surprised the predictor has us losing to both the Saints and the Dogs - pretty sure we win one of those at least.
Freo won't rest anyone in the last round, more likely to happen across Rounds 20-23. They won't want players off the park for 2 weeks in a row.

Robert Heatley Stand / Re: AFL Rd 17 2026 Pre Game Predictions Carlton vs Richmond at MCG
Last post by Baggers -Indeed, Richmond have played their best football against us for the last couple of years, much to my irritation. I don't want us to take them lightly, but I do want us to give them a day they want to forget.As good as Dean and Derksen have been, I'd imagine Lynch would monster them.
Pitto has struggled against Nankervis in the past, and we have not much of a plan B for that situation. Also Richmond will have Lynch back, and he won't kick that badly again.
If Weitering were playing, Lynch wouldn't get a kick, but Weitering isn't going to play. Dean and Derksen will need to be on their game!
Mm, if Lynch starts any of his shenanigans and Deano is on him, let's just say... Can you still win the Rising Star if you've been reported and found guilty?
Remember that Lynch is an expert at getting frees through sneaky stuff. Be a handful for either Deano or The Derk.

Last post by Baggers -Obviously not assault but it was inappropriate.Deeming seems like a bit of a trouble maker to me.
Yep, GTC. Seen this personality type before... Let's just say it's not surprising that wherever she is, trouble and drama will follow.

Last post by DJC -Guy must have more influential backers than John Pesutto, who I thought was well on his way to becoming the next Premier.
The funny thing is that Deeming wasn't pre-selected but was reinstated when her backers kicked up a fuss.
It's no wonder that punters become disenchanted with our pollies

Last post by Gointocarlton -based on current form we are big chances to win 5 of the 8 in this run.
Hawks Freo and Bris are the real tough ones in this block.
The pies game is a massive one

Predicted finish: 10th (10-13)
HS predictor. I would argue that if we are considering ourselves a chance for a top 10 spot, we should be winning at least one of our last for games. Plus who wants to go into September losing four in a row!
