    1.St Kilda... Collingwood will be top 4 and we are looking for the bottom half of the 8

    2.Brisbane... keeps both Adelaide and Brisbane within a bulls roar of MFC

    3 Geelong (see 1)

    4. Freo... see 2

    5.North v Swans... probably irrelevant but if one needs to pick perhaps Swans .. would hate to be playin North for a spot in the 8 in Round 23 in Tasmania.

    6.Suns... see 2

    7. Richmond... will make the 8 whereas we compete with Hawthorn

    8. Giants but a Carlton upset would be okay

    I'm a bit the opposite. Would prefer Essendon to beat Freo and have as many teams on 4-5 as possible.

    Remarkably, if we lose to West Coast and GWS but knock off Adelaide in Darwin, the ladder could look like this after round 11:

    Fremantle 5-6  (8th)

    ---------------------------

    Hawthorn  5-6

    Port  5-6

    Essendon   5-6

    St Kilda  5-6

    Bulldogs  4-7

    North Melb   4-7

    Melbourne 4-7.

    We could still be in this thing despite losing 2 of our next 3 games.

    What an 'interesting' mess of a season. Keeps the possibilites just that little bit alight.

    Excellent to see Adelaide still not quite getting it together. Keeps my 'on the hunt' dreams alive for the NT game.

    I'll be at the Western Sydney / Carlton game tomorrow and will try to report as much as I can on GWS from up close.

     

    On another note, 'our' Bernie Vince seems to be going alright on the MMM commentary panel, currently doing Geelong-Bulldogs.

    Brisbane Lions have risen from the ashes.  Very exciting team.

    Heading to the MCG this afternoon to watch the Richmond V hawthorn game,

    Beautiful day for football. Hoping for a good game. I will be leaving at half time if it is a repeat of the Essendon v Freo game of last night.

    Maggots maintaining their pathetic performances in the Port v Suns game. 

    AFL needs to address this as a matter of urgency.

    Woeful.

    Another case where players stopped thinking a free would be paid in the Hawks/Tigers game. 

    RIP Holding the ball.

    At the mcg. Nowhere near the crowd I was expecting. Lots of people trying to get in but probably fifty thousand at best

    Hawthorn supporters must be the biggest bunch of fair weather, band-wagoners going around. They didn’t turn up last week either.

    It's a Richmond home game but I would say the crowd is around sixty forty tigers way so disappointing all round.

    The MCC section is very sparsely occupied. I'm in the AFL area and have a section of the stand for myself

    Anyone understand why Carlton would have to wear white against GWS?  How on earth would Navy Blue (with white shorts) clash with the GWS colours?  Defies logic.  Yeah.  I know.  It's the AFL.  Nuff said...!

    Same as asking why we wore our red-backed jumper on Friday night. We played West Coast in Perth twice last year and wore our normal jumper with white shorts both times. There's no clash at all between their royal blue/yellow and our navy blue.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
