Like how we fought back yesterday?

Meanwhile St Kilda finished the game having kicked 6 goals, 3 of which came in a 3 minute burst (i.e. 3 goals in just short of an entire game), in perfect conditions, against a side who hadn't won for a month and cruelled with injuries.

Sounds a lot like Melbourne, actually, and I guarantee you if that had been us with that performance you'd have lamented our terrible skills and inability to score.

Yup

Saints were rubbish. Played 1 good quarter

If Shiel didnt go off injured early they'd have lost by 10 goals plus

Today, Freo's aging list caught up with them.

They had 2 less days rest after last weeks game which was a heavy slog followed by a long flight to Tassie.

A younger Freo would have been a better match today so surprised Lyon didn't rest some of the older guys.

Hawks are very good but the final score was not realistic of the two team's capabilities.

Top 4 positions wide open now.

The way the Lions are playing against Sydney we will have plenty to moan about next week is well. Can't wait.

Even more reason to be nervous for next week.

I chose two great games to come over and watch...

Yep. It won't be an "easy" game next week

Fitzroy are pushing south melbourne...

Franklin looks overweight - quite a paunch on him

He's always looked a bit that way. I think his odd body shape makes it look worse.

No longer than flying to Melbourne considering they chartered a plane

Lock in the Dorks for three in a row I say. Who or what will stop them now? Injuries, not likely, one they don't get them (not footy related at least), two they have depth to cover most positions. Their direct threats all have major deficiencies that won't cut it in finals.

Yes wait and see i guess, the grand final isnt played in Tassie tho...

AFL got to have a good look at Mitchell from Hawthorn pretty soon. Could have done some serious damage to Fyfe with another covert knee to the hip area yesterday.

Eliminated Crows best forward Walker for rest of game in previous weeks and probably these two were not the first two. Matthews even brought it up!

Reminds me a lot of the sneaky sort that used to operate in the late 50s and 60s...
