I'm not sure why, but I get the feeling this will be a good round of footy. Or at least an entertaining one.

The only downside to our so-far improved prospects this year is that it matters a lot to us which other team beats which other team.  I'm forced to barrack for teams I hate just because it improves our top 8 prospects.  Arrrggghhhhh!

Yes Bombay. I think Swans but $3.00 for a undefeated team seems crazy

Rampe is in great form BBO but Richards being out for me swings it in Norths favour.

It is cold but conditions still good.

If you're in a Footy Tipping competition, pick Port Adelaide.

That way if we win or lose you'll still be happy!!!!

Suppose that depends how much or what you bet.

North are going to get thumped tonight ,they have had such an easy start to the season.

Their first game Adelaide,currently 8th,they beat by 10 points,same scoring shots though.

                         Lions currently 16th,lions kicked bad,32 shots to 28 not a convincing win.

                         US -- 31 shots each and umpiring gave then that game.

                         Freo currently 18th on the ladder and Freo kicked bad 31 shots to 32.

                        gold coast--15th on the ladder 29 to 26 shots.

                       Then they played the Dogs won,16 shots to 15. close game

                     They then played the Saints,won,11.16  -  11.9.  Saints are 13 th on the ladder.

                    Next up,Essendon, they won,24 shots to 20.

                    and last week,fair enough Carlton they won well.

But tonight they come up against a real team, They don't deserve to be 9--0.

Quietly hoping they do. Know a few Norf supporters and they all need to be taken down a peg or two.

Swans before last week 

in no particular order

wins

carlton

essndon

collingwood (days after drug story broke)

lions (nearly lost)

eagles (SCG, didn't read much into that)

giants ( they meet again soon, Cameron will be there this time, I'm tipping a different result)

hawks (only real scalp to date)

 

losses

crows (got challenged and failed)

tigers (what a joke)

We will know soon enough.

If Norf win I'll eat my hat.

North are better than Swans by a fair margin, played in Sydney makes it interesting.

Norf by as far as you can kick your hat

Hope Swans win, but i don't like either team.

It's such an open season that anyone who makes the 8 this year could win it IMO.

They start so well at the sG, the Swannies.

Going to be interesting to see if Norf have any brash ones and come back from here, they look totally overawed at this point. Massive game and they chitting the bed.

You could argue Hawks were flat last week just like Geelong were. 

Who ever wins I'd be surprised if one team gets flogged.

I was wrong.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
