John Butcher - 15 touches, 10 marks, 3 goals at 3 quarter time.  He must be turning the... oh, wait.  It's against Brisbane.

Carry on.

12 behinds I assume?

Watching Brisbane is so much like watching 2013 Melbourne it's scary.

Yep, and a stark reminder of how far we've come since then.

[The heart beats true 17,808]

If you get beaten by a side that won't play finals on your home deck by 94 points then you're a disgrace.

Melbourne 2012-13 style disgrace.

Leppa will be lucky to be coaching at Xavier College next year.

[Wiseblood 24,637]

Who goes first - Leppa or Dimma?

You're boring.  You've missed the point entirely and also missed the fact that I said, twice, that I was disappointed in the game last week.  Doesn't mean I have to take a dumb stance about it.  

I've  missed nothing. You just can't deal with truth. . Must be nice in your make believe World, what with all your excuses and explanations.

Collingwood did what we should have done. There's no reason we shouldn't have beaten West coast, not really 

Explain, if you can where the ' dumb' applies.

The Dees are unfortunately a team who choked more than anyone would care admit.

This comes down often to resilience and coaching.  We are nowhere near where we need to be or ought to be right now.

You're such a frustrating poster.  We kick straight, we win.  Pies winning today means zilch and has no reflection on us at all.

For an 'old' poster you sure do post thoughts that seemingly come from a 5 year old with little knowledge of footy.

But we did not Wiseblood.

WCE were in front at the end and thay got the 4 points.

WE DID NOT WIN

I really don't want St Kilda to play finals but I would love to see Boomer lose his milestone match, especially after spending the whole week talking about how much he loves himself.

Now that thats off limits, there's still hope that Port can win 3/4, Saints all 4, the Kangas/Dogs lose 3 or 4 or Eagles lose 4. So little to be entertained by this year. trying to find something.

You seriously want to go to this club, Prestia?

Hope the money's worth it. 

Prestia was never going to go to Richmond, but if there was any doubt, Exhibit A today.

Sneaky suspicion that the Dorks will get rolled in the finals. I know they've been great (yadi yada) but they're an injury away from unravelling.

As long as Geelong don't pinch another flag. I have a feeling whoever wins it this year will be a very ordinary winner. There's no real standout team this season. Yes, I know Hawthorn are two games clear on top, but they've played some ordinary footy at times this year.

Rance is a sniper when things don't go his way, this myth of him being a super guy is well over blown.

A hypocritical Christian? Never.

I still think there's a big chance we'll finish ahead of St Kilda.

I feel guilty, tainted....

Please help.....am I the only one grinning from ear to ear at the demise of Richmond?

[Adam The God 29,381]

I didn't realise Brisbane rested Martin and Schache last night. Very tanky.

Both at seasons end surely 

[What 18,810]

After that brilliant convincing win for the Demons,  there would be nothing better to top off the round than seeing Adelaide beat Essendope by 200 points.

[Adam The God 29,381]

I want Brad Crouch.

Leigh Matthews or Brendon Gale would have to go first if either of those two were to get the chop this year.

Either way, Mormons believe in Jesus Christ.
