Robert Heatley Stand / Re: VFL Rd 4 2026 Carlton vs Collingwood at Carlton.
Last post by crashlander -Reidy and O'Keefe should improve our rucks.
Key forwards? Key defenders? Aye, there's the rub.
Will Phillips play for us again? Somehow, I doubt it. But he would be very useful.

Robert Heatley Stand / Jim Park Voting AFL Rd 6 2026 Carlton vs Collingwood
Last post by crashlander -[1] 15 votes in total, no more, no less.
[2] No more than 10 votes for any one player (even Sam Walsh or Patrick Cripps)
[3] Three players at least must get a mention.
[4] A grade for the game, A+ (what I want to see) to F-.
I haven't posted last rounds results yet in the hope that someone else might want to vote. Certainly these short weeks and odd game times do affect peoples' voting habits.

Robert Heatley Stand / AFL Rd 6 2026 In game Angst Carlton vs Collingwood
Last post by crashlander -We have won only 2 Thursday night games, and of those, only the win against Essendon at the end of last year was truly satisfying.
Can we pull off an upset tonight? I hope so, but I am not confident. We simply do not appear to have addressed the reasons why they have been beating us lately.

Agree, Going to be a wet evening according to the BOM so wouldnt want to be caught being over tall especially given they are a very small mobile forward line.
Good to see we learnt the lesson last week.![]()
Yep. Defies logic.

[1] How did Hayward get back in? His for has been poor and his decision making questionable.
[2] Ruck? Young as 2nd ruck?
[3] Who is the matchup on Nick Daicos? That isn't clear to me.
[4] Flynn Young: what is he doing wrong? He couldn't have done much more.
[5] Are we prepared for the rain?
We have struggled against Collingwood recently, but I don't see the signs on the selection table that suggest we're ready to deal with their strengths.
