NON-MFC: Round 07, 2022

[Alex Flood 245]

I thought the Saints/Port game was a contender for the worst game of the year. This might be even worse when you factor in the fact that this is the best possible conditions you can play in.

 

Looking forward to Swans/Lions though to see who the true #1 contender to us is.

Dogs struggling to get away from a pretty average Essendon.

Everyone's waiting for the Dogs to start a fightback to save their season. I'm not convinced it's going to happen.

Right now it seems the best sides in it outside of us are Fremantle, Brisbane and Sydney. That may well be the top 4. Geelong has a whole lot of weapons but can't stop sides scoring. St Kilda and Carlton are 5-2 but neither is convincing.

[DubDee 24,328]

Bombers are bottom 4

useless soulless club

[titan_uranus 24,575]

So if the bottom 2 are West Coast and North, who are the bottom 4?

Essendon and Gold Coast? Adelaide perhaps?

Port and GWS might be finding some form.

Suns finishing bottom 4 will surely cost Dew his job. Essendon finishing bottom 4 might cost Rutten his job.

Swans v Lions is like watching 36 men wrestling in a paddock. It is hardly even football. I like pressure games but this is more like Rugby League with tackle after tackle after tackle. No spectacle at all, and some of the worst field kicking you will see. 

So tired of handball (throw) over the head, and so tired of poor goal kicking.

Ha ha bummers are getting done. The fans are calling for Heppell to get dropped

[WalkingCivilWar 39,256]

Watching Essendon cop a merciless hiding never gets old. Nor ever will. Go Dogs!

I’ll look for the highlights package of this game just to watch Essendon have goals kicked against them 

[Rab D Nesbitt 8,104]

The Worsfold - Rutten succession plan has been a resounding success thus far.

The SGC is the absolute worst regular-use ground to watch football being played at. I mean, you can't even fit regulation 50m arcs onto it - it's way too small.

[layzie 32,789]

Hot Dogs!

[Rab D Nesbitt 8,104]

I wonder when the lanky guy with the pea head and ponytail due back for Brisbane? 

[Jaded No More 67,627]

Brisbane look ominous 

[Maldonboy38 6,379]

Lion's skill and pressure has broken through the Swans defensive suffocation to  break the game open. They are making the Swans look 2nd rate.

[DubDee 24,328]

Lions clearly the biggest challenger to us  hipwood back in 2 weeks

Bailey McStay Cameron

McCarthy Daniher Hipwood + Raynor 

is easily the best fwd line in the league. 

we have them marginally in the midfield and our defence is superior

[BDA 22,256]

Different swans in the second half. They obviously got a serious bake from Longmire during the break

[Sir Why You Little 36,605]

I picked the Swannettes 

C’mon!!!!

Buddy has found a good batch of Voltarin (my favorite drug).

Agreed. Best thing AFL could do is move GWS to Canberra and have Sydney play out of the GWS ground.

Meanwhile Buddy is turning back the clock in the 3rd!

[layzie 32,789]

Think the football played today has been pretty good. Pies and Suns had plenty of scoring throughout. Swans and Lions very high energy

But Malthouse says they will be premiers. Maybe he is actually some other sort of …..house. 

[Diamond_Jim 12,351]

Lions pulling away and that's without Daniher and Hipwood

Very impressive

[Chook 14,988]

Lions are proving Sydney aren't quite at the level.

Seeding:
1. Melbourne
2. Brisbane
3. Fremantle
4. St Kilda

Western Bulldogs could make a Grand Final from anywhere in the eight.

It seems most people here think the Geriatric Cats are done... I am one of them 😎
