Suns will rest half their side for finals and we will be tanking worse than normal if there is still a chance to finish below North and/or Richmond


They might be playing for 4th spot so I don't see this happening.


also a chance they have 4th wrapped up and cant move up or down, if thats the case they may as well cancel the game


Noah Anderson might need the 3 votes to win the Brownlow by then :D

Not sure if true but apparently C7 have opted out of showing the Carlton v Essendon game and it will only be on Foxtel/Kayo

It's a ripper for those a couple behind the pace.

Wouldn't you play the Gold Coast game on the Thursday night instead of the Essendon one? Or play both?

Makes sense for them to pick the Brisbane game over that game, if that is the case.

We will know tonight, we have had the wood over Collingwood, i think earlier this year was only our 4th loss to them since 2012.
I think we get it done tonight. But if we lose we're done, wont be beating Brisbane in R24 unless they have top 2 locked away which is very unlikely.

Could Melbourne be our saviour and upset the Dogs this week in the new coach bounce

https://www.carltonfc.com.au/news/18531 ... ior-coach/

The Carlton Football Club can today confirm with absolute clarity that its AFL Senior Coach Michael Voss will remain coach of the Blues into the 2026 AFL Season.

As communicated by the Club in June, incoming CEO Graham Wright has been maximising the final eight weeks of the home and away season to work closely with the football department.

This has involved clear consultation with players, coaches and staff, producing valuable insights into where the AFL program currently sits, and the necessary steps that need to be taken to take the team forward. 

“We were clear following Round 16 that we would utilise these remaining games to make calm, rational and fully informed decisions that will take our football club forward and that is what we will continue to do,” Carlton President Rob Priestley said.

“The first of these has been in relation to our Senior Coach, which we are now in a position to provide clarity on following last night’s scheduled Board meeting.

“Last night, Graham presented a recommendation to the Board of Directors that Michael remains as our Senior Coach into next season.

“This recommendation was unanimously endorsed by the Board.

“For the last few months Graham and Michael have been meeting regularly, during which time they have been engaged in open and honest dialogue with one another on what is required for us to evolve as a football side.

“Michael’s ability to lead our football club this year in the face of incredible pressure has displayed the attributes of a strong and selfless leader.

“Carlton always comes first for our coach, and Graham and Michael share a clear and aligned view on the opportunities to improve football performance. 

“We want to make it absolutely clear that Michael Voss is the coach of the Carlton Football Club and he will remain the coach of the Carlton Football Club.”
