T&T it's about time for the 2016 root thread

[Twodogs]

Dees in front. I am on the couch rooting like crazy

Crows look a bit flatfooted. Dees have the momentum and Adelaide are having trouble countering their ball movement. Mostly because the Dees keep missing targets but they are so used to it they know where to run. That's a bit what it looks like to me anyway.

I have been rooting like a maniac all weekend though.

Shouldn't we be rooting against any interstate teem in the top 8? Be better not to have to travel if we can help it.

Good week for rooting with top 8 teams facing off and Hawthorn travelling to Port who need to win to keep their season alive.

Actually rather a Hawks loss than a port loss. The 8 won't change but with the Hawks percentage if they lose makes a really interesting top 4

Agree! We don't want Sydney, Adelaide or GWS in the top 4.

Unless we finish top 2 then it doesn't matter

[bulldogtragic]

Thanks T&T. Hope this week is better than last week for you.

[Remi Moses]

I think we should refrain from rooting interstate.
I'll see myself out

[LostDoggy]

I just like rounds when 2 or more games feature 2 top 8 teams. Either losing is good for us - in the rooting business, you've got to love a sure thing.

Good chance for a root on Thursday this week.

Port have won 3 off their last 4 against the Hawks (the one loss being the 3 point Prelim Final result). Their speed and tenacity has unsettled the Hawks' game plan before. I'll be flat out rooting.

[comrade]

Port Adelaide should be our second team for the rest of the year. They've got some massive games against top 8 teams.

So you won't see the game then ?
