Might be the Sam Durdin cup tonight.
If those dirty stinkin' blues win, we'll get pick 5.

I reckon Carlton will set themselves a mini-war for the final game v Essendon. They'll be absolutely primed to take the Bombers out of the finals at the last hurdle.. Even if it's impossible, they'll be treating that game as a mini final.

Fair to say Port should be 12 goals up at half time.
Typical Chris Yarran non efforts and Casboult still can't kick.
Has Judd jumped the shark??

100 point thrashing for Carlton, almost as enjoyable as seeing the Dogs win. Great Friday night footy.

Port's run and work rate was back to its best tonight, but the opposition was atrocious.
If Port got through to the second week there'd be some nervous teams.
Carlton have got some players out ( some players on the edge of delisting) but that was woeful.

Yeah these last couple of rounds you think you would be busting a gut so you can eck out another year. Do you think Mick will go the big axe at the end of the year. It will be interesting how many they cull.

The Ravens blow it against Norf.
Set up for Richmond and even West Coast( think the Eagles will do a Stephen Bradbury)
Can't see Richmond beating Sydney( particularly after we touch Sydney up tomorrow)

Will bartel go for acting? Was Lindsay Thomas like dive, when's the AFL going to do something about the acting ?

[Pickenitup]

Great effort by the pies that was guts.

I think the difference is Thomas does it every week! He even was pretending and hobbling around last Sunday like he'd done his ACL.

or luck after GWS hit the post twice in the last 5 minutes.

[Remi Moses]

Interesting stat today
Brisbane held goalless in 3 quarters out of 5 against Freo.
