NON-MFC: Rd 10 2023

[Demonstone 23,444]

Looks like this weekly thread hasn't been started yet.   There's some difficult games to tip.

But I really just wanted an excuse to post this picture of a young Harry Sheezel with one of his childhood heroes.

They'll be playing against each other this weekend!

Bulldogs have a nice little deal going with their Ballarat games. Reportedly they get $1M from the State Government to play there.

Could we have a game in say sunny Mildura.

The irony is that the ground capacity in Ballarat is so small most Dog supporters don't bother with the trip

Gees Geelong’s midfield looks really ordinary this weekend against the Dockers. Wouldn’t be surprised at all…

Agreed. Duncan was their only decent mid last weekend and he is out

Freo should win easy at home

[DubDee 26,412]

the Blues v Pies should be interesting 

Carlton under the pump will come out hard

aside from that not too much of interest

the Giants are my tip for an upset against Saints. and Freo to beat Cats still counts as an upset 

[BDA 23,031]

Reckon North are a chance against Sydney. Swans have been well down recently.

Very tough round to tip. You could make a reasonable case for how each team could win.

And I'm jumping off the death ride this week. I want to see the Cats lose even if it does hurt our draft position.

Crows are a real chance against the Dogs. A cold wet day on Mars favours their direct playing game as against the tall forward play of the Dogs

Meth Coast must have run over a black Cat and Broke Untold number of mirrors. They now have flu though the team.

How good would it to end up with pick One and Two.

The AFL would change the rules in advance.

On the one hand, nothing pleases me more than a Geelong loss. On the other hand, MY PRECIOUS DRAFT PICKS💔

Reckon nth can knock off Sydney & I give Freo a chance.

Last week a Collingwood supporter on social media was going on about Mason Cox saying he was up for trade and how stupid do the other clubs look not being interested, I replied with no we took Brodie Grundy instead. Thanks for him by the way.

West Coast showing an absolute masterclass in tanking, planting a flu virus in their remaining fit players.

 

[Demonland 73,884]

Who are you tipping this weekend?

[dees189227 12,460]

Hope Richmond win tonight because Essendon have a couple of cruisy weeks.

I see nth players have said they want to put a smile on Clarkson's face and they'll have extra motivation. I would have thought maybe doing that while he was coaching 

[dees189227 12,460]

Kudos to everyone making the trek to Ballarat this afternoon to watch the doggies, crows game. 

[BDA 23,031]

Paul Curtis with a brilliant goal for North. That was special.

Hopefully the AFL can see that it's injuries and sickness and no priority pick is needed.

Looks like a full house in Ballarat. I didn't think the dogs fans would travel.

Only has a capacity of 11k so it's usually a sell out

It's the same travel time as Geelong from Melbourne so it's not a long travel. Not much further than Casey from the Melbourne CBD in travel time.

Why Bulldogs are paid $1M to play there by the State Government... who knows

They don't bring 11k to the MGC hence my surprise.

i suppose the locals head along which bumps up the crowd.
