That's how bad we're going.

Dogs with only 6 players with 26 games or more experience. Says it all.

And the odds keep shortening.

That's how tired I am, I completely forgot about the Brownlow and Rising star. Brownlow - Beams Rising Star - Petracca

Yet there are still calls from many posters that certain players, two in pariahs best 22 yet have struggled with their disposal and ability to influence games for years. Last years dropping of certain players must be continued across the board for those who can use the footy regardless of experience. There's only one way they will get and that's by playing.

Bluey McKenna never stood a chance Luded.

And counting .....

Agree, for me the interesting one is Sydney, the still have a lot of quality which will win them x amount of games but they are now regretting losing Mumford. Buddy and Tippet still haven't gelled as initially thought and their defence is now a concern. They have Rohan but lack pace around the ground and drive off half back. Early games against GWS and Collingwood will be interesting.

When are the final lists announced?

Top 8 Eagles Port Freo Hawks Pies Geelong Dogs Giants In - Pies, Cats, Giants, Port Out - North, Tigers, Crows, Swans Wooden Spoon : Carlton Premiers : Port Norm Smith : Robbie Gray Coleman : Kennedy (Hogan top 3) AA : Who cares the whole things a farce. Melbourne wins : 13

Working....again.....have brought my earphones so I can listen to the game. What time are the official lists out or have I missed that? Looking forward to reading the post match comments where conflicting views run rife.

Sounds like something out of an episode of Get Smart.

Now you've just gone and ruined it Steve.

I get where your coming from Dr but I don't know, I just think this year there are about 14 clubs who can realistically make the 8. Games against Essendon and Carlton will be viewed as not only a guaranteed 4 points but a much needed percentage booster. I think only the Hawks/Eagles/Freo would entertain resting players against them. Having said that we rolled Geelong in Geelong with an under strength side, how much of that was us and how much was that Geelong not coming ready to play.

Charles Barkley : I don't know much about Angola, but Angolas in trouble. I just looked at Essendons list that played today, I then add the four names you've mentioned. They are in for a world of hurt this season. They are going to play like the Richmond of old, the 1st qtr specialists. They are going to be in the change rooms before each game high fiveing and back slapping each other, the opposition needs to simply come out and slot threw a few early goals whilst remaining physical with them, the players will look up at the score board and the mental disintegration will have begun. This can only last for so long, they are sitting ducks.

Just scroll back a few pages, there's plenty of them.

Essendons loss today puts in perspective how bad Carlton were last week, and yes I'm aware of who didn't play.

Carlton are in a bad way. Imagine if Kruz was gone too. They will fall in a heap by about rd 7.

Fair call, I only bet on AFL and have itchy feet. I might roll them into 2-3 other games to make it interesting.

Bombers currently getting their arses handed to them. Anyone still worried?

Dees are paying $2 tomorrow, have you got another $100 on??

Left foot, right foot, right foot oh [censored] left foot.... Bruno.

Just trying to think of another profession where you can perform once of have potential than go on to do nothing yet get constantly rewarded for it.
