AFL Rd 23 2022 Post Game Postulations Carlton vs Collingwood
Given our injury toll and the biased draw, our 2022 season could well be one of the greatest over-achievements in AFL/VFL history.

1. And 2.  Hold on to win last two rounds.

3.  Beat Adelaide instead of sleeping.

4.  Concede less goals in our losses.

5.  Win by bigger margins.

6.  Playing more 4 quarter efforts.

We missed out by .6 of a percent.

Now is not the time to call it the greatest choke of all times.  Collingwood own that mantle in grand finals.

Why let reason get in the way of hysteria and list/wrist slashing and burning…?

You can choke/fail and not be hysterical, list/slashing and burning you know. Just own it, learn and come back bigger and better. I aint hysterical or slashing wrists, Im buying my membership asap.

Anyone who doesn't think we have made significant leaps forwards this year has obviously not watched enough games.  In total, we won 4 more games than 2021, and our % is >20 higher.  That is significant progress in any man's language.

Knowing what the list can be capable of, Voss et al have plenty to work on over the summer.  

Just getting out first-pick players fit would be a great start.
This is now the longest premiership drought in the history of the Carlton Football Club - more evidence of climate change?

Would love to know if the rumors around this are true, or not.  I even once asked The Dominator, at a function, if these games paid for the end of season trip, or not....  he straight-batted the question back to to me.....

Complete myth. We lost our last round match in 94 before losing both finals, no way after 7 rounds did we think we had the flag in the bag.

splitting our home games is a disadvantage.

Carlton play a total of 9 games athe G and 7 at Marvel.

Collingwood split is 15 and 3
Richmond is 14 and 3
Melbourne is 13 and 2

We have no home ground.
