AFL 2018

i watched it. It was unreal. Essendon are shit. The Eagles are good. But last night? The bombers went through the corridor like they expected to win by 10 goals, and just fucked West Coast. I am loath to admit it, but it was good to watch.
Not a great week to be associated with optus
-
Essendon are capable of playing free flowing football if you allow them .
They tried that with us early in the Dreamtime game and we strangled them ,then they folded .
Could be just an off night for wc , most teams will have a few of those per season

I want Jeremy Cameron banned for life. I want his kids banned for their lives. I want GWS de-registered and sent to Tasmania. I am also not ruling out a tactical drone strike.
Filthy fluffybunny.

Clearly deliberate and he'll serve maybe four-six weeks. For the sort of thing you'd be facing a custodial sentence for.

Given how fucked Andrews apparently is (admitted to hospital that night), should go straight to the Tribunal and he should get a significant whack. I would settle for 12 months...

5 weeks is fucking lenient

Way hey! good guys win one! Watched till about half time and Crows looked better but behind on the board. Must have managed to kick a couple in the second half. So remain in touch but I think still outside the 8.
Meanwhile Barry Hall ...
... pretty uncouth. Type of disgusting comment that is uncomfortable even on a stag do ... -
West Coast look to be on the slide ,
I reckon they might drop right out of contention ,
Magpies and Power the big improvers , im tipping both of them to make the 4 with swans and Tigers
-
Lions!! Huge win in Perth.
Richmond are in a class of 1. Everyone else is fighting to be the beaten grand finalist.
Rest of top 4 looking like Sydney, Collingwood and Port.
Teams who can't challenge but will make the 8. Geelong
Teams who flickered briefly but will at best limp in to the 8: west coast, Melbourne, north.
Teams who have been shit all year hoping to fall in to the 8: hawthorn, gws.
Everyone else is done. Sort of leaning towards two MCG tenants having a home GF in Richmond and Collingwood. Annoying nuffie supporters v bogans. Everybody loses.

So Weagles no chance? Despite being tied on points at 2nd (3rd on %)?
Yeah sure they lost to the Crows doesn't make them useless ... oh hang on ...
On your projection above: Go Tigers! (ABC!)
-
Steady on you two. Start talking up other clubs. Finals football is a different beast.
-
Yeah. I was about to post something along the lines that AFL can be quite random.
It's not like rugby where you can depend on a superior forward pack to dominate territory and possession.
A close game can swing on a random bounce of the ball.
I'm not counting my Crows out yet.
But think you may need to be top 4 come finals to give yourself the best chance of winning.
-
Pretty hard to win from outside the top 4 ,
you would have to be on an almighty roll of form ,beat the best teams in the comp more than likely interstate , in consecutive weeks
-
The crows are a broken side. The weagles have fallen in a hole.
I wouldn't watch richmond v Collingwood. Fuck that.
-
Wait i just checked the ladder. Adelaide are cooked. A win outside the 8 with the worst percentage of the teams around them. Would take a run of form to get there.

Plenty would though , be massive , the two clubs with the largst supporter base , that have nasty history of hating each other for 100 years

without a doubt, Melbourne would be heaving, two huge supporter bases on GF day.

Just quietly, the Lions have won three on the bounce, and only one of those was a gimme. Beating Freo in Perth and Hawthorn is Tassie are big results. And we've got the Crows in Brisbane this weekend, who now know they have to front up to get the points.
Still pretty close throughout the ladder. Top 4 far from sealed, and spots in the 8 up for grabs as well. Collingwood losing at the 'G to West Coast of all teams is a big blow for them.
