Second week in a row I feel dirty after a game and need a shower.

Yeah but this time it’s Essendon so the shower needs to be twice as long and the temperature just short of scalding. And we should  burn the clothes we’re wearing for good measure.

    Now they are out of finals contention, I don't mind Essendon won today. It helped keep Brisbane off our tails.

    Also makes Thursday night for annoying because we could have been 2 games clear of Brisbane to

    A great result.  Excellent work Bombers.  That will help us though only if we don't drop the next couple of games.  Must win the ones we are expected to and at least break 50-50 in the rest.  4 out of 6 will see us top 4.

    We need to not lose a game for a while. Watching these games and hoping for certain results stinks.

    Not sure I'm so happy about the Lions losing as it is easier for Sydney to make top 4 as they have at least 4 very winnable games coming up.  Other than Geelong it is, on paper, the easiest run home.

    I would rather play Lions in the QF than Sydney.

    Our win against Brisbane has not aged well

    Not a fan of having losses to no 1,3, 5 and 6 either

    Agree that whilst is hasn’t aged well, our defensive intent that night would’ve beaten every club.

    Any danger Collingwood can lose a game anytime soon? At this rate they’re going to make the grand final. They just simply find a way to win regardless of whether the opposition is excellent or poor.

    I’ll be happy just to make the final 4 first Luci, give our form and our draw

    Sort of why I never bought into us being 'back' 100%

    West Coast have been pathetic so far

    woeful. Almost quarter time and zero inside 50. 


    edit: soz, that was their second inside 50. Barely though, blink and it’s back out again. Scoreless, too. 
    There is a positive though: they have a player named Rhett Bazzo. That’s some name right there. 

    You know a match is boring when you find amusement in players’ names. 😆

    I'm very confident.  Lots and lots of 8-pt games among top 9 teams to come.  And quite a few of top 8 games with teams that want to make a mark. 

    We have a game and large % on 5th.  The % is almost worth another game.  Short of the wheels falling off and we win our fair share we are top 4.

    Still a good chance for top 2, I reckon...

    I know I’m supposed to be barracking for Essendon but I can’t. I tried but I just cannot do it. How would I sleep at night?

    Warm in the belief that the Dons have given us a better chance of securing a better ladder position WCW. 

    Now put ur Electric Blanket on, reread our Premiership Literature, AND....... Dont forget the nightcap WCW!!😇

    Still sticking with the "It's all rigged" narrative then, Clint?

    Not rigged, but at least an element of manipulation

    Great player Josh Kennedy

    Have always admired and respected him. Love the way he goes about his footy. Ever humble and a perfect role-model for kids (and adults as well).

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
