Carlton's season started as an absolute disaster and somehow turned into this, ripping off wins like they're a completely different team. Bumpy road to actually winning Wildcard Round, still no rest for anyone's heart rate monitor. 🤣

Now Geelong roll into town this week looking to knock the Blues off their high horse. Will Carlton fumble harder than the day they lost Curnow to the Swans, or does the streak survive one more scare.

Grown adults are about to cry over a football game this week and we mean that as a compliment. AFL finals week two brings qualifying and elimination finals, so somebody's season ends and somebody's therapist gets a very busy Monday. When it all gets too much, order the T-bone and let a very large piece of meat do the emotional heavy lifting. 🍻😆

Wild first ever Wildcard Round, plenty of upsets, plenty of underdogs and turns out all Carlton needed all along was to sack Voss and finally remember how to play the game, goals included. New coach situation, same Blues suddenly playing finals football.

Collingwood meanwhile get to spend finals season watching their most hated rival keep showing up, like an ex who never actually leaves. Footy finals chaos starts now!

Best on ground, no judges required. No panel deliberating, no controversial decision getting replayed in slow motion, no bloke in the corner still arguing it should've gone the other way. Our burger turns up, does its job and walks off with the votes every single time. 😏

Two games this weekend, four teams and by Sunday half of them will not exist anymore in any way that matters. Bulldogs v Pies Friday from 7:40, Demons v Blues Saturday from 7:35. Bring tissues or bring mates who will pretend not to notice.

Sudden death finals football, the sport's way of testing whether your heart can actually handle September. No mercy round, no bye week, no second chances, just straight into the deep end. 🤩🏈

Perfect night to bring the mate who still hasn't recovered from Round 23. We'll keep the drinks coming, he can bring his own blood pressure medication.

Whatever kind of drinker you brought to the table this week, we have sorted you. 😉

$7 Hahn 3.5% schooners for the sensible ones, $10 Wild Turkey and mixer for the confident ones, $8 Coronas for the ones dreaming of a holiday they are not on and $7 Haslegrove Moscato for the one who swears they are not really a big drinker.

Limited time only at Ruck and Rover. 🍻

Last home and away round of the year, which means it's finally time to retire "we're still a genuine shot" until round one of next season. Grab two beers, grab a seat and watch two dozen fanbases have their hopes confirmed or murdered live at Ruck and Rover. 🏈🍻

Skip the socks. Skip the card he'll pretend to love and never read again. This Father's Day, buy any main and Dad's first Great Northern Super Crisp is on us, because surviving another year of dad jokes deserves a reward. 😍🍻

Every purchase also goes in the draw to win a stack of GNSC merch and a smoker, so he can finally stop borrowing the neighbour's and start bragging like he means it.

Bring the family in, order a parma and let Dad have his day.

Home cooked dinner is lovely. It is also silent, has no crowd noise and definitely isn't showing Hawthorn v Collingwood live and loud. 😆

Our lasagna comes with a full house, screens on every wall and a crowd that will yell at the umpire on your behalf, free of charge. Kick off's 7:40pm Saturday, come find out which dinner actually wins. 🍻

Sunday is UFC 330, Makhachev putting the welterweight belt on the line against Ian Machado Garry and every bloke in here about to develop a PhD in jiu jitsu for one afternoon only. We can't verify your credentials, we can verify the beer is cold and the screens are loud. Doors are open, black belts optional, opinions guaranteed. 👊🏻

*Screening of Main Card only.

Round 23 this week, the pointy end of the season where half the comp is still mathematically alive and fully unhinged about it!

Everyone's team is "still a genuine shot," every umpire is "an absolute disgrace" and every fan in here is one bad quarter away from needing a lie down. Grab a seat before the good screens go, we'll keep the beers coming no matter how spectacularly your finals dream implodes. 🏈🍻

If there's one thing we won't shut up about, it's our parmas. So, when we got the nod for Parma Daze's Melbourne's Best Parma comp, we knew we'd have a shot, because we've got you legends behind us.

Turns out a bar full of people who basically live for our parmas is a pretty handy army to have. We just smashed through the Quarter Finals and we're officially into the SEMI FINALS. 🤩🔥

Couldn't have done it without every single vote, thank you. We'll let you know the second voting opens again, so get your fingers warmed up. Thanks legends, round two here we come.
