I'm thinking they might hit a bit of a wall soon, hopefully just in time for our game. ;^)
Same thing every year at Bomberland, they die in the second half of the season

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.
I will never see #16 the same!!

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.
The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.

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.
