No way! Dogs got lucky tonight imo. Outta these two, Port are the team to watch. They should’ve won this.

About to lose top of the ladder ?. Hopefully just briefly. 

Teams with a game in hand should always be ahead of teams on the same points but with no game in hand regardless of percentage imo.

Dogs midfield is a class above the competition. Their backline is very suspect. Their forwardline is meh although they do have Josh “kicks goals against Melbourne specialist” Bruce. 
Port were disappointing for mine. Dogs were very good. Their midfield is next level. 
 

Edit: didn’t watch the Richmond GWS game. But given the injuries to Richmond it seems like GWS blew a good chance. Or did they choke under the pressure?

The Powa are an extremely overrated team who got lucky with the shortened version of the game last year.

Couple that with the gifted games played at home and on the Gold Coast where they adapted and play very well.

No improvement whatsoever at all this year, extremely gettable in their backhalf.

I reckon they are very beatable.

Libba is the one you need to close down. As far as first dibs midfielders go, he is brilliant. On the outside the Bont and Caleb Daniel are very good also. While their midfield probably bats deeper, our back and forward lines are superior at the moment. Should be a fascinating clash in a couple of weeks time.

One of the things I give the coaches credit for this season is planning for opposition, no one has really got off the leash, and we gave Martin his first proper bath. Libba is awesome, have real respect for him, and I feel we will have a plan here.

Dogs openly throw the ball and the umpires never call it. how much does one have to spend to get that kind of treatment from the umpires?

Button it right now big fella, or I'll have Gordon Legal send you a letter

Their midfield is Rolls Royce but we have them covered in every other department. Our defense and pressure game will take care of the doggies. No worries.

I’ve asked this before but how did the Swans give Aliir away for free?! He is a very good player. 

Salary cap squeeze i believe.

He's been a great pick-up for Port

If I had to choose I think I’d give ed his collywobbles gig back so i didn’t have to hear him comment...it is unbearable 

The quality of commentating in general is of a low standard. I listen to most games with the mute button engaged.

    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.
