This is a topsy turvy season and, with a number of teams, you don't have any idea as to what's coming out at the start of the day.

I go back a few weeks ago when I saw the quarter time score in the Collingwood v Geelong game and I thought WTF.

On Saturday night Geelong made a meal out of North Melbourne.

Carlton beat both Collingwood and Geelong.

Confused?

 

At the start of the season I said it would be the most even in a very long time, check this out.

At work in Beijing. Might be a good time to introduce Chinese students to the beauty of Australian Rules football. Could be an opportunity for cultural learning as well as some intensive study of the Australian vernacular. Mmmm, maybe not.

Got the same dilemma. Was supposed to be finished classes by quarter time but someone is sick so have to cover!

I've been out for a bike ride. It's seriously windy!! The filth would be going in way too top heavy if they line up as selected. I wouldn't be surprised to see a late change. (Small for ta

I'm in the outer today.

I'm hoping the scum can take losing like gentlemen.

I will be wearing tweed (with the elbow patches).

I hope today we play a coach killer.

Tweed In the outer! Risky business Ethan risky business!

Seems like there might be a few of us over here. It would be really good to catch up to watch a game or two together. Paddy O'Shea's in Dongzhimen is pretty good at finding the coverage. If you're interested let me know and we can get together maybe next weekend for the Swans game on Sunday. It would mean an 11am start but they have some good food to soak up the beers.

Great weather for the walk to the G and enjoying watching various D grade douchebags diving into icy water. 

Now to win!

Can also confirm J Viney is playing. Glove on. Freak!

Jack's hand looks ok - carrying his gear with his left (injured)! 

His presence will draw one of their players to 'mind' :cool: him - frees up our other midfielders :rolleyes:

Go Dees!     View image on Twitter

Jack is primed for big game! Relishes the challenge and knows to hate the old foe in his DNA...

You sure it's not The Reverend calling in sick?

Melbourne beat GWS, GWS smashed Port, Port smashed Melbourne.

Hell, Richmond beat Sydney!

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    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,
