    I'm thinking they might hit a bit of a wall soon, hopefully just in time for our game. ;^)

    Where did you hear that? Sounds like bullshit as it would be more widespread if it were true.

    Yep, guys like Cox, Jones and Perkins look like they need a rest. Hopefully in our game.

    Laverde has really found his niche down back, similar to us with Dale (we have the better player ofcourse). Ridley continues to impress. They have a good nucleus to build on. Have certainly nailed their kids.

    First I've heard of any basketball related skill synchronicity in the AFL. Is that a word?

    I believe blokes with really fine skills in congested situations have got a background in embroidery.

    Ripping game and finish. GWS very brave. Hunt is a fool.

    That was an enthralling game of football.. Melbourne did all they possibly could to win but the GWS stood firm. It was a big defensive effort. I expect they will make the eight.
