Re: AFL Round 12, 2017 Discussion
Same scenario as before the 2016 finals, bye then a Thursday game. Let's hope for the same result
It's probably a good thing as it will mean 8 day breaks as we go back to playing Friday, Saturday and Sunday
If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

Adelaide should get the Aints off our hammer. Would be nice if the cheats could clean up Port for us.
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

Sounds like we are getting close to rooting time.

Be nice to have the lions knock off the dockers at the Gabba. Would push Freo out of the race too you'd think.

Yep the bye has been and gone.
It's time to root! Where is T&T?
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

Except we go Sunday (10 days), Saturday (6), Saturday (7) and Friday (6).

I give Brisbane a big chance. Something looks seriously amiss with the Dockers.

The Dockers on paper are probably the 16th best side in the competition. It's been an amazing effort for them to have done as well as they have, particularly given Fyfe has hardly fired a shot.

Funnily enough their best performance was against us, by far. They limped in against a few teams, and copped a some poundings. Their percentage is laughable for a team hanging the top 8.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Sandilands made a big difference that night.

Re: AFL Round 12, 2017 Discussion
I think a few of their efforts away from home have been decent .
They dominated Richmond for 3 quarters ( who have improved markedly) and a good win against an inconsistent Melbourne .
Don't think they'll make the eight, but they've improved .

Adelaide got the silver service treatment again last night. Obviously tagging is now being put under the microscope. Rory Sloane got some very soft frees. Coby Stevens did a great job on him. Adelaide definitely the best side by a long way at the moment.
