Some important games this weekend in shaping the top ten and the rest.

Hawks and Carlton (with one being undefeated) skews the longer term perspective perhaps.

The interesting ones for me are Pies V Cats, Adelaide v Port and Saints v Richmond. You can mount a case for each being a comparative upset result.

Sydney

Melbourne

Irrelevant but would love Port to be 0-3

Gold Coast because I hate GWS and also see above re: Port

Geelong *vomit*

Brisbane by 25+ goals

Carlton *vomit*

Who cares?

Who cares x 2? 

 

Anyone know the status of West Coast?

Are they fielding their fourteenths again or can the covid lepers return?

hun have us as 24 to 3 in tipping

only jon ralph, sally capp and kiss-of-death have picked the gliders

WEST COAST EAGLES v FREMANTLE

Sunday April 2, 6:20pm at Optus Stadium

EAGLES

TBA Saturday evening

DOCKERS

TBA Saturday evening

Nice touch with the old South jumpers. Better than the red yoke with the cutout bridge. 

No surprise. Weightman free kick goal

I would not be surprised if half of Floppy Weightman’s career goals came from free kicks

I don’t think it’s been until watching the dogs this year that Bruce’s contribution to the team has become apparent to me. He’s so important to their set up. Takes a big defender, but does a lot of work across half forward and even the wing being a target out of the backline. There’s only so much Naughton and an inexperienced Ugle-Hagan can do for an entire game. 

Is there any player going around who’s more irritating that Weightman?

I loath Greene but at least he’s a genuine gun 

Floppy mcfloppy is a bloody average player.

I’m conflicted on Greene… he’s a different cat and a brilliant player. It’s a shame he has so little self control; he’s the Nick Kyrgios of footy!

Watching the bulldogs makes me feel sick. So many free kicks
