Not a lot of must watch games this weekend.

I suppose the big one is Swans v Bombers on Friday night.

A few other 50/50 games in Bulldogs v North and Saints v Suns that will probably end the losers finals chances.

Collingwood v Port could be interesting as well.

Richmond v Carlton is a must watch if only just to see how Richmond capitulate due to the fact their brains are like sweet potatoes in a pressure cooker!

Who wins the Dogs vs Roo's game?

I'm half expecting the Dogs to be seething and come out and play an absolute blinder but then again...

They would need to flick a switch.. they have looked disinterested all season.

And I am not sure they are good enough to flick a switch - they may be reigning premiers but they arent a powerhouse that will win multiple flags like the Hawks, Cats or Lions dynasties.

Ablett plays his 300th at 4:40 against the saints at Etihad on Sunday. Thats going to attract a massive crowd. Probably deseves a bit better. at least work it out so he could miss a game so he could play it at home. It may have bought a few more people through the gate. 

Anyway I want sydney to thrash or just beat the bummers tomorrow night and nothing would make me laugh more if carlton beat richmond.

Crows can't handle white clash strips in Adelaide. 

I think Hawthorn are still a class side (on their night). A few handy additions tonight.

But, give the Crows time. I still think its hard to beat them over there. We have managed to do it more than most. But we have had to play damn good football to do so.

Still be a bigger crowd than what would turn up at Metricon

I don't think the crows are a premiership threat, the can't handle any sort of pressure

Yep, good side in tonight, I give them a chance. But a lot has to go right. 

I hope the Crows smash them though.

Somebody needs to tell Hamish that Hawthorn are crap, that most of their players are shadows of what they were, and that the non-Hawthorn supporting AFL general public hold very little goodwill towards a side that won 3 premierships in a row by exploiting Free Agency. 

We get it. You support them. The rest of us [censored] hate them, so shut your gob.

Hawks are playing like they did against us - Roughead, O'Brien and Gunston tall up forward, with Poppy at their feet...they had Rioli against us too.

Defensively thy're looking sound - Burton and Howe both stand taller with Birchall alongside them, Burton in particular is an impressive youngster.

Their pressure is much better tonight.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
