Yeah - it's not like their coach played for Melbourne or anything. I rate Clarkson as the best coach in the league, but wouldn't want to turn this into another Neeld bashing.

Froome v Andy v Contador would be unreal. There should be one TT.

Andy!

Congrats Greeny, has had a wonderful career and I've enjoyed the large majority of it. Many great highlights.

I'd probably do something along the lines of switching Hawthorn's list for Melbourne's...

South Africa putting England to the sword.

I wouldn't mind knowing what's going on as soon as possible.

I like the first one - though we'd add up all four keepers wouldn't we?

North and Richmond are making up for the largely disappointing round. What a cracking contest.

If Clark plays - we win.

I say this a bit - but that GC Brisbane game was one of the worst I've ever seen in the AFL.

Commentators do my head in. Today (I think it was Breust) did a lot of work in the middle, kicked long for Cyril to pick it up on the goal line and slam it through - Commentator (Basil?) rabbits on about how good he is and how he is "something else." The love for certain players no matter what they do is sickening. The worst was last night, though. Pretty sure it was Harley commentating while a Geelong player was having a set shot. He was on, literally, a 90 degree angle with absolutely no way of kicking the ball straight through the goals. He took two steps out to snap it through to which Harley mused "that goal has become a trademark of the Geelong Football Club." What rubbish. This round turning out to be a pretty big disappointment so far - but I have a funny feeling about tonight.

Just wanted to start a bit of a chat about some of the other games going on this weekend - as it's (schedule-wise) a cracking round of footy. Two top-8 sides last night went at it with the Cats flexing their muscles. Hawks-Pies at the moment in what feels like a finals match just watching it. In 15 minutes, 2 v 5 go at it at AAMI. Brisbane/Gold Coast in a local rival clash. Carlton Bulldogs in a game probably playing out for pride, but nonetheless an even game. Port v the Dees should be pretty even I think. St Kilda Sydney is another top 8 match and they usually have good battles. Lastly, Richmond v North Melbourne tomorrow should be an absolute cracker and it's hard to split the two teams, especially at the MCG. A great round of footy - I just wish we were higher up getting into the business end!

On this day in 1991 at Windy Hill, the Dees toppled the Bombers 17.12.114 to 15.16. 108 after being 27 points down at 3/4 time.

Does being a woman count as having a woman's background?

The writing is much bigger than the wall?

Like it - not sure if it's workable, but anything that gets more people an opportunity to play the better.

Loving this Arctic Monkeys song:

Great local band - if you're in the mood for a dance, check out Embezzler. Northeast Party House - they know how to throw a party.

I don't quite understand why people think that teams aren't trying because of the Keeper rule. If it wasn't for keeper and teams were still struggling we'd still have the same problem - that's fantasy footy. FWIW I think it's a clever trade that uses the rules well. The only thing I've not been thrilled about is that I initially drafted with the 4 keepers in mind - hence picking quite a few young players who I thought would be guns over some other players. At the end of the day, however, that's what the group voted and I'll happily go along with it because it's all a bit of fun.

Made the trip across the boarder for this game. Never seen a more disgracefully umpired game in my life.

Argh! What?!? Is he saying that he lifted up his arm to see under him? "Judd: remember a Carlton player tackling NM player. Went in to try and strip the ball. When he couldn't do that grabbed Adams' arm to make it so he couldn't make an attempt to get rid of the ball. As he hold of the arm he looked to see if Carlton player was going to strip the ball. When he looked back saw Adams' arm was in a vulnerable position and then let go"

Live AFL feed of tribunal hearing.

I will accept pretty much any offer for Jay Schulz And to think I gave up Gaff from him less than a week before his injury.

No Grimes at that list is good.
