Dear Brisbane

I know it may be impossible but can you please find something and beat richmond. 

Dear Richmond, can you drink your own bath water, choke, and let Brisbane beat you?

Have to give credit where credit is due:  Dangerfield!

He couldn't walk but kicks 5.6 (most after the injury) leading to the ball.  He single handedly won the game - 

 

Roughy barely touched him.
Talk about putting on a bloody act.

When will the umpires start penalising the bulldogs for their throws.  It is so obvious - they swing both hands out the front and the ball flies out.  Its very rugby style.  Obvious!

Pretty much a disaster weekend for the Dee's. Apart from the loss,Richmond,Swans,Essendon, Eagles & Bulldogs all winners. This time next week will likely be out of the eight. Relaunch from then.

I see it a bit differently.  Firstly, let me say making the top 4 wasn't realistic with all our injuries. 

In terms of spots 5th to 8th -

  • Richmond and Sydney were locks for a spot before this weekend. 
  • The Bulldogs can't make the 8 so beating Carlton is of no consequence. 
  • The Eagles having a big win will drop StK out of the 8 and drop Ess to 10th.   
  • On principle I would rather see Eagles in the finals than Ess!

I'm not sure what you were hoping.  If the finals were now it would be Rich, Syd, Melb and Eagles playing in Elim finals and there is a good chance that will be the result altho the positions may change.

For mine that is a good result for us especially if we get a Vic final and avoid it being vs Sydney.

Don't see it that way.  Even if we lose to Port (which I think is 50/50) for us to fall out of the 8 requires StK to beat Sydney or Ess to beat North.

Losses for the Swans,Bulldogs,Eagles & Tigers would have made us four points better off. Simple. All were possible in the run.

Yes, it does!   But it isn't relevant if the other teams were already locks for the top 8 or aren't in contention.  Rich and Syd were already locks.  I am confident of of saying StK and Bulldogs won't make the 8. 

Spots 7 and 8 will be between us, Eagles and Ess.  Bottom line is we win games we make it.  We don't win games we are dependent on the other contenders knocking each other out.

Even remembering our darkest days, how grateful am I that we never took on Ross Lyon.

    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

    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.
