The split round is already proving to upset more than just your weekend.

With Carlton beating North last night, and prematurely locking in St Kilda over Freo, there is a genuine possibility we could finish on the bottom of the ladder.

Will be an interesting an interesting to see how Brisbane fare against against Gold Coast.

One thing is for certain; St Kilda's case for a PP just got harder!

So why can't we beat North like the other crap teams ?!

Bitter but optimistic

It would be different if he'd had a full preseason.

And we beat Adelaide on their home ground and Adelaide belted GWS, we beat Richmond who beat GWS and Saints Don't send yourself over the edge trying to compare results

I still think we have enough about us to roll both the Lions and GWS, but you're right in saying that with games like these finishing on the bottom is not out of the question.

We might upset a tired Port?

The optimist in me says we can.

The eternal Melbourne supporter in me is getting angry because GWS will probably pull something out of the bag against the Cats... and then we are the only team not to pull off an upset and get done by 10 goals, thus ruining my weekend and not joining in the 'upsets'.

Makes you wonder why the saints haven't at any point shown form anything close to this, if they played like this all year they would have a lot more wins

The pessimist in me says that just as the Saints were playing for Lenny today, Port will be playing for Cassisi tomorrow.

Fairly disrespectful from Port as well. Not prepared to play him unless they're expecting an easy kill.

I can understand it though - they are playing for a Top 4 spot, playing him against us should be ok as it won't hurt them too much. Playing him against a Hawthorn for example would hurt them, theoretically.

Sylvia 7 possessions and 24 dream team points!

Poor Sylv......what a lost soul.

His influence is starting to have an effect at Fremantle.

Has he played his last AFL game? I would think at least for this year he has...

7 very uninspiring Col possessions. "X" Factor written all over them...

Wouldn't it be seriously ironic if Roos guided us into last place despite the tangible improvement between rounds 4-15 and the major praise heaped on the man.

A win against either Brisbane or GWS OR if Saints fail to win another game should see us avoid the spoon.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
