@TheBigIguana Will you be able to get a stream to see the game?

Throw in is 7 20 am irish/uk time this Friday, so it'll be a late night/early hours of the morning start depending on what part of the states you're in.

No that's the worst start for me because it's too late to stay up and too early to wake up.

Welcome to our Everton World here in Oz.

It was a poor game, but four points is four points. We've still yet to develop the killer instinct to really put teams to the sword imo.

Hopefully we'll see a more polished performance against North Melbourne next week. Still though we're still unbeaten, so all's good for now!

So how about a Collingwood v Carlton Grand Final this year?

I think we're due to meet in round 10. The Pies sure are playing well at the moment.

The Gabba sure is a nice ground. The Pies of course lost to the Brisbane Lions by 116 to 83 points, so hopefully you had a nice evening despite the result!

Was a tough watch. 2nd quarter the players completely lost their system and seemed confused with who was doing what. We had 3 centre bounce free kicks for having wrong amount of players up forward. Was really weird to watch as you could see it happen. Bloody warm night though. Really odd to watch a game of footy in shorts and a shirt.

Carlton 107 North Melbourne 84, four straight wins for the Blues. The Roos to be fair seem to be a greatly improved team under Clarko.

Thought the Roos were the better team in the first half, thankfully Carlton lifted in the third and four quarters. Mackay, Curnow and Silvagni all doing well.

We're not quite firing on all cylinders yet imo. Winning whilst not at our best is a good sign though, and Sam Walsh is still to come back into the team.

A terrible weekend for sport.....

EPL - Man Ure 2 Everton 0
NRL - Titans 20 Dragons 18
AFL - Cats 127 Hawks 45

Andy is the King · April 13, 2023

The Crows finding some form as Carlton lose their first.

Cork Evertonian · April 13, 2023

Adelaide Crows 118 Carlton 62, that sure is an appalling result and performance by the Blues!

Andy is the King · April 17, 2023

Another shocking weekend of sport.......

Everton 1 Fulham 3 - absolutely lost for words.
Canberra 20 St George 14 - being a Dragons supporter is nearly as depressing as supporting Everton
GWS 77 Hawthorn 75 - lost with the last roll of the dice
