Melbourne v Carlton Highlights | Semi-Final, 2023 | AFL

[@nelsonhemstreet3568]

American here. Greetings from East Coast USA! Love your footy and this game is why. The contact of American football, the speed of ice hockey, the scoring of basketball, the foot skills of soccer - what's not to love. I just wish I could see a full game here.

This was one of the best games of footy ive ever watched. So many intense moments costly mistakes from both ends throughout the game, feel like umpires were actually fair. But we can all agree if gawn didnt touch the ball to stop goal dees would be through.

AFL football , is starting to spread across the globe , some countries love it , others feel threatened as their code , however good , is nothing on the frantic pace of AFL , A PERFECT GAME AND A MISTAKE RIDDLED ARRRGHH FEST , BOTH 9.5/10 , no other code can match that frantic endeavour and not affect the viewer , why 96,000 turn up ,at 8 pm to watch a game of football , watch out world , here comes footy GO BLUES RARARA

The 360 scenes of the crowd, with every seat and every level filled up...AMAZING!! You could feel the sound of the crowd booming through the screen! Carlton's ability to compose themselves, regain momentum and take the game on, particularly in the final 5 minutes!! As Vossy says, you've got win the game a few times within the game to win a final. Whole team was excellent, but I've gotta give a special shoutout to Sam Walsh. Outstanding! Well done Blues.

[@JoshuaBallinger]

I am just gonna say it, Melbourne got so lucky in 2021, it was one of them right place right time seasons and they took it with both hands and were true winners. Now everything is back to normal the old melbourne just can not recapture that light again & i do not belive they will with this team or coach. Last weeks loss to my Pies was a sign that melbourne just lose the little moments which is not what you can do in finals footy, its why Collingwood struggle at the big stage because it is about the little moments in games like this. I think if i was melbourne i would be fuming and looking deep into the system from top to bottom, with a list like taht and having won a title in 2021 they know they can capture lighting but lack the ability to do it again or maybe just they are unlucky that lightning doesn't strike twice. Sorry Dees supporters!
