Robert Heatley Stand / Re: AFL Rd 23 2026 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs Western Bulldogs at Marvel
Last post by Micky0 -Was it the one umpire that decided calling play on within 2 seconds was reasonable? Absolutely bizarre.
We were also continuously held with no frees to us.
Surprisingly free kick count was in our favour 15-23!

Last post by madbluboy -There didn't seem to be a lot of support on this forum for the wild card round when it was announced Has this changed now that we're part of it?
I don't like it, but will still watch!
I liked it and obviously more so now.
Everyone was caught up in rewarding 9 and 10 but ignored that it was made more difficult for 7 and 8.

Last post by Lods -Happy to be here.
But I still think it's too many sides rewarded.
Hopefully we can win a couple of finals...while we're in it then it isn't over.
But does anyone seriously see a team wnning the flag from 10th.
The funny thing is that there are probably many years where 11 wins and a draw would have been good enough to make the 8.

Last post by Lods -It's now a final 10.
After next weekend 10 teams will go on...8 teams won't.
We're playing finals.
It just happens now that teams finishing 5th and 6th get a weeks rest before their finals campaigns start.
For 7-10 it starts the week after next.
I notice on Sportsbet we've slipped ahead of both the Bulldogs and Collingwood in betting for the flag.
Carlton $51
Collingwood $67
Bulldogs $81
