How long has it been since Carlton was a powerhouse? I seem to recall a time when they were favored in most matches that didn't involve facing Gary Ablett.

Mid 90's was our last Grand Final triumph. Been pretty much downhill ever since. Our only good moment in the past decade was when we got into the finals a couple of years back after Essendon were disqualified and we beat Richmond in an eliminator. IIRC Sydney thumped us in the next round.

West Coast kicks a goal after the horn in overtime to win at Port Adelaide. Next week is Sydney at Geelong, and West Coast Eagles at Greater Western Sydney.

Geelong vs Sydney at the MCG (Melbourne), rather than Skilled Stadium (Geelong), due to ground capacity.
