Tonights a tough game, who do you want to see lose more. Guess draft picks beats more dog pain. Swan beating the Cats and Saints beating the Blues would be nice.

    in a very long season it's still time to think about the final 4

    A game in Perth is off the radar but SA Qld and Sydney are possibles

    On that basis Cats over Swans and the miracle of Eagles and Hawks over the two Adelaide teams

    Giants over Lions

    Freo over dogs for the obvious reasons

    The rest ????

    I don't trust Carlton but wouldn't be surprised with an upset for reasons I can't explain.

    There will be shocks and upsets this weekend. If there wasn't we'd all load up on the punt and get 8/9 winners every week.

    Wouldn't be shocked if Hawthorn knock off Adelaide. Hawks play their best footy in Launceston and Adelaide have been home for 4 games in a row so will need to adjust to foreign territory.

    Giants could also knock off Brisbane in Canberra if all goes right for them.

    North could lift for Goldy??

    Not a chance West Coast could upset Port though with their glorified WAFL side.

    Hard one for the Dogs coming off a tough game against Port.

    I can see the Swans pulling off an upset.

    I can’t conceive of any reason why I’d prefer freo to win a game this year other than if it ensures we get a better finals position.

    The only time I barracked for the eagles in my life was round 3 this year. And I really dislike the eagles.

    I’d be very surprised if the hawks beat Adelaide. Crows will win by 40+ I reckon. And they will play finals this year.

    Still don’t think Freo is playing as well as they could.  Even last week they only just got over the Suns.

    The only wildcard is it’s in Perth, but the doggies have played there a lot so they know the ground and the weather will suit them. They have a better defense v fwd over the Freo matchups.

    Fingers cross the doggies can get a good game going.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
