    Are we seeing the end of the Swans' run or are GCS very good.

    GCS certainly had the corridor game working in Q3

    Losing Armartey has really hurt the Swannettes, although they were playing well in the first half

    This is an incredible turnaround….

    This Swans-Suns game is becoming a worry.

    Swans may need some extra draft picks.

    And I don't like to be the bearer of bad news, but if Geelong and Hawthorn also win today, we're probably out of running for the top-4. 3 wins and percentage on at least two sides is a big ask.

    Top 8 still wide open, of course. ;)

    O’Sullivan for the Cats is going to be a superstar. Would be very handy in our backline.

    GCS look really fit and just continue to run and run in the last quarter which is very different to how we play in the last quarter.

    Tonight's game raised an interesting grammatical problem.

    "No Bontempelli; No Bulldogs."

    Is basically sound. Or at least accepted as a convention. But...

    "Yes Bontempelli; Yes Bulldogs."

    T'is a weird one.

    Nice on - I guess here "no" is being used as a determiner, as in "not any" or "absence of", not as an exclamation to denote a negative response. "Yes" is not the opposing determiner for no - instead we could go with something like

    "Absent Bont; absent Bulldogs"

    versus

    "Present Bont; present Bulldogs."

    He's a good player but I dislike Curnow. He's got peak "Carlton wannabe" vibes about him.

    Cats putting in their [censored] performance against Carlton of all clubs.

    Really interesting season. Apart from Pies and Lions, anyone can win or lose on any given day. More than any other season, pressure is playing an even bigger part on scoring. Blues looking very good, which I hate. Their pressure, defence, and 1%ers are top grade against the Cats today.

    Season is wide open still

    You only have to be 1% off

    Will Jeeelong come home strong?? They have in games so far this year

    Mathematically, "The Bulldogs" is a set contained within the set which is "The Bontempelli."

    The Venn diagram would be a smaller circle inside a larger circle.

    Realistically, there was only one way the Hawks would lose to the Eagles, and a start of 2.8 has briefly opened that door.

    I usually mute the commentary these days as I find it insufferable. Thought I’d listen to the Geelong Blues game today just for a change but seriously Dwayne Russell is just the worst. His stupid one line planned puns are so embarrassing. How does he still get a gig???? Back to my music I think.

    Nothing more insufferable than Carlton fans when they’re on a winning roll.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
