Gee would love to know the spray Kingsley gave that team at half time because it clearly worked.

Goes to show you can still do it.

If he was a real coach he would have waited for the momentum swing and taken the learnings.

Noah Anderson. Just the type of young player and leader needed in red and blue.

I think Brisbane were tempting fate with their poor logo design. I've updated it for them

I’ll preface this by saying that I know he’s absolutely not one and never was or will be, but Matt Rowell gives me creepy serial killer vibes. The type that really stalks and gets to know his victims over weeks, if not months. Then keeps a trophy. Chewed grass is always found at the scene; leading to him being dubbed the ‘GCK’ (the Grass Chewing Killer).

Didn't expect this performance from the Suns

looks like they might finally be contenders.

And given the talent at their disposal its about time

Brisbane making double sure Gold Coast just about get top four.

The rest of the games today look deplorable

I need a new hobby

Suns could win the flag, then get 3 top 18 picks, plus Curnow, plus Kalani White.

not to mention a couple more academy guns

Got a work mate - Dees, MCC - seriously so jack of the club he might switch to the suns

We live in northern NSW so makes sense

Doesn’t want to put his kids what he has gone through! Has timed it well if he does

Do we need a big display on the screen telling us what number clash we are up?

Good to see West Coast staying in the game against Freo until the 25 minute mark of the first quarter.

Rivalry round is AWESUM

yes, cos steve crawley's eyesight is terrible and how else would he know?

For a fleeting moment Brisbane could have taken top spot.

Can't believe GC won by that much.

Oh & course Toby got a week

This season has proved a disaster for the AFL - and even more so for the broadcasters.

Five rounds still to go and there's only one team outside the 8 who realistically can make finals, the dogs (by the by has a team ever not made the finals with a percentage north of 125%?)

Meaning we have five weeks with any number of rubbish games, including tonight.

And tonight's game highlights another related worry for the AFL and broadcasters - the gap in performance levels of the top 9 teams and the bottom 9 teams.

My fear is that the fact that the eight almost settled - and you have to fear for the Dogs' chances with the Suns win over the Lions today leaving the western suburb crew a game outside the eight - the AFL will do something knee-[censored] and stupid, like introduce a wildcard round. Spare us!

As for the Dogs in ninth spot with a percentage of 125-plus, that has to be the definition of flat track bully.

Would love to see Collingwood finish first, only to get Geelong week one. I reckon the Cats could get it done.

Fair chance the loser would come up against GWS or Hawthorn the following week. Both could take the Pies on their day.

Just anyone but Collingwood please.

Laughable that Hardwick thinks Witts should even remotely be in the conversation for AA ruck.

Surely a great coach like McRae couldn't go out in straight sets!!! Any coach who allows that, no matter how well their team performed during the season, must be a complete dud, with a thread on the fan site dedicated to how they have to go...
