Doggies don't like teams that bring pressure. Tigers, us and now Swans have found them wanting. They look good racking up 100 point wins against bottom feeders but not sure they'll get the ultimate success unless they find a harder edge.

Was going to post the same thing

Great win to the Swans. They and the saints have done us a huge favour. Makes our win over Port doubly valuable.

[Rab D Nesbitt 8,823]

Might have to get on the Tiger train next Friday. If they can beat Brisbane and we get over the line against the Hawks it's hard to see us travelling interstate again after we play in Perth in round 21.

Assuming Richmond and West Coast finish this round in the 8, here's the top 8's record vs the top 8:

1. Melbourne - 6-0
2. Sydney - 5-2
3. Geelong - 5-3
4. Bulldogs - 4-4
5. Brisbane - 3-4
6. West Coast - 2-4
7. Port - 2-5

Ugle Hagan I know it his first game but lacks intensity. Remind me a lot of you know who!

My calculations have that being a 16 point round for us.

The media will now roar Cats and Swans. Let hope we keep flying under the radar. Hand up MFCSS expected to be fifth at weekend close. How beautifully wrong I was

Me too.

Not sure about your maths but a great win by any calculation.

JUH was less ready for that debut and had equivalent impact to Watts on QB. But the commentators talked him up at every opportunity. What a joke. Not even close to ready for AFL and certainly not against the Swans.

Love it !!! The football “experts” and commentators have been rubbing themselves hard under the desk with excitement for the Bulldogs and the Bont.  Finally shown they are not premiership definites just yet !! 

[SPC 3,576]

Big round next week too. All 3 opposition matches could help be games clear.. Go Dockers, Tigers and Suns. All have a good chance.

After the Giants loss, I was fully expecting to be 5th by now. Instead we are a game clear on top and 2 games and % clear of 5th. Shows just how important Thursday's win was (and perhaps not to overreact after a loss - every team has them).

Cheers for the mental image.

I thought the 8 was sewn up weeks ago, lots of upsets to come, loving the footy at the moment just hard to get a multi up.

If they had their say in the All Australian vote, they’d have Hunt as an All Australian Wingman..

You’re right. But there’s been a tonne of even less necessary threads. And for some reason they’re usually the ones that take off. ?

I was about to ask who the two teams were that we hadn’t played yet. Christ it’s been a long week.
