Around the League Round 6

[Nasher 33,613]

And I've got to say, the Hawks getting flogged by GWS definitely took the edge off my grumps this afternoon.

Heh.  It'd be ironic if we stayed in 10th after winning two weeks in a row, then move up a spot the week we lose.

Gold!

[Adam The God 30,217]

Worst time to play Gold Coast next week...

[Wilson7 2,667]

We might move up to ninth tonight, Gold Coast getting hammered

Looking more than likely now, Cats are going to town on a carcass now!

[Wadda We Sing 10,685]

Cats seriously tearing them a new one...over 100pts now

Nah, they're being crushed.  No bouncing back from this, confidence will be sapped.  GC are ripe for the picking I reckon (aware this is the MFC we are talking about though of course)

Couple of important players injured as well

We are about to climb a spot on the ladder. Well earned after todays great effort.

I will believe it when I see it

But Deledio said they have a list which can win a premiership!

Makes Viney's talk about finals seem pretty conservative, really.

Delelo or Deludedo?

[Ted Lasso 19,499]

Tigers are rubbish! getting belted by an undermanned Port.

To be honest, I haven't watched any of it. Just flicked over to it.

Who's injured, mate?

[SaberFang 7,151]

Richmond would do well not to repeat the disaster that is Carlton, by denying exactly where the state of their list is.

They need a top to bottom rebuild and they need it yesterday.

Correction, we are currently 9th!

Tigers will be envious 

Amazing what a good flogging does for one.....rises up the ladder!

Yeah a bit strange that we gain a spot after losing. But that's a positive. 

Port kick the first 2 goals of the last quarter. Now up by 33. 

Small crowd there tonight.  Official attendance at the MCG tonight is 27,07. Wow I know its a saturday night but geez the tigs fans have dropped off.

Prestia, Swallow, Rischitelli, O'Meara, Ablett is definitely not right, May suspended. That's a solid batch of missing midfielders.

Funny old competition.  GC's % was 121.1% before this.  Ours is still a very respectable 102%; and Hawthorn who are a game clear have a paltry % of 91.8%.  

It feels like we're the worst side on Earth during and immediately after a loss, but in reality we're well and truly amongst it among the middle grounders, with several of them looking like they may fall away - particularly GC.  Our season is still very well positioned really.  There are some clubs who are in real trouble now, and finally we're not bloody one of them.

Well, Prestia is still playing. He's had it 21 times.

Wow, had no idea, as of Thursday I thought he was dropped due to injury. Must have been incorrect.

[MadAsHell 4,212]

Prestia will make sure he looks after what's important to him next week!

He was doubtful, Gold Coast said earlier in the week he would miss with a shoulder, must have come good

Judging by the scoreline, they judged... incorrectly. 114 point margin now.

[Adam The God 30,217]

Yeah, originally looked like he was missing, so I went and took him out of my Supercoach team for Viney and then they said he'd be playing yesterday. Didn't hurt me too much in the end though.
