      Just quietly , I know a few and if you’d offered up a flag they’d have bitten your hand off if the downside was a slip down the ladder

        Good win by Freo. That looks to lock us into pick 5 now. That's about the most positive thing I can think of in the totality of wins/losses/form this year.

          The Carrara Koalas still have 3 winnable games - Aints, Tragics & BrisVegas at home & a possible 4th one against the Bombres - can see them leapfrogging us by season's end.

            It was good to see the Crows go down, see how they like it when injuries hit.

                Richmond are the luckiest premiers in many years to get Adelaide like they did on Grand Final day. It was the flukiest premiership since the Crows won (funnily enough) in 1997.
                They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                  They never travelled in the finals with 3 games at the G.

                    Yep. They don't win very often away from the MCG.

                    I'm starting to come around to the idea of the Grand Final being played away from the MCG.

                      For the best team ever assembled, this Melbourne outfit sure does seem to struggle against any half-decent opposition.

                        This Melbourne flogging is Macavaney-level delicious.

                        Weren't they just up and about after besting the likes of us, the Blues, the Suns, the Saints, the Bumbers and a very wobbly Crows outfit. Some hot streak.

                          I said it about 5 weeks ago , Collingwood a big chance for the flag, next 4 games they play book in as W.
                          They have the hardest midfield going and now the forward line is up and running they should be favourites.

                            So Jayden Stephenson from the Pies is looking to be what Jarod Grant should’ve been.

                                Damn, that’s 100% true.
