    At the slightest touch Thomas throws himself backwards on the ground staging for a free. It is a regular occurrence every match. Since the AFL said they were going to crack down on staging we have heard nothing since. Typical.

        Carlton competitive 2 weeks in a row but just not quite good enough to upset a contender. They get the Hawks next week - their last game against a finals team. On form they will win their last 4 (v Saints, Dees, Lions & Bombers).

          What a hero he is, no wonder no one likes him. What about when the Collingwood player was lying on the ground in the goal square after stuffing up the kick out, and Thomas rushes up to stir him and pushes him while he is face down.

          He is a little gutless wonder.

            Carlton were just one big marking competitive beast forward short of consigning Sydney to the bottom four. Damn it.

              Watching Hawthorn is annoying, why cant we field kick like that.

                Door surely slams shut on the 8 with GWS getting the job done over Port. North now with a 2 game break and massive percentage buffer over the Saints in 8th.

                  North will have to beat the Saints next week to make it a sure thing.
                  Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

                    Saints have an easy run home, north very tough. Doing the ladder predictor, barring any major upsets, the winner of saints v north makes the 8. Huge, huge game.

                      I think the Saints roll them. Their attack is ferocious and they're on a roll.
