Re: Round 3 Discussion

Observations from Round 3
Collingwood played Carlton like a cat plays with a ball of wool.
Richmond being outclassed by a team on form is Collingwood's only challenger(early days)
Sydney and West Coast playing their usual ball up stoppage slogothon
Sydney look a key defender short with Everitt playing key back (ouch!)loss of Bolton is going to hurt.
Adelaide is the big surprise throughly outplayed by Freo( just puts into perspective that you take notice of Round 1)

Is this the same Hawks team that lost to Adelaide and were almost 5 goals down against Melbourne before they fell in a heap?

Did you watch it? Cracking game.

Both sides would have easily have beaten the first three weeks Dogs this year.

Watched bits and pieces, including the last 5 mins.

Re: Round 3 Discussion

Wasn't a problem when everyone wore their traditional colours, instead of black backs etc. No problems in the 70's and 80's or even the 90's.

I disagree, it's always been a problem.

Bulldogs and Demons were pretty hard to spot the difference in the 80's.

I never had an issue with those jumpers as the shgorts were always a different colour.

Lets face it the whole jumper thing is a debacle with virtually every team opting for a white clash jumper, except for Essendon and Collingwood who have told the AFL to get nicked. No imagination at all.

How the hell could either of you know that?

Re: Round 3 Discussion

Melbourne in real trouble against Brisbane.

If Brisbane win/get close will everyone start viewing our efforts last week in a different light?

Re: Round 3 Discussion

Not sure how many people have seen Dangerfield's goal against Freo from yesterday and the near identical poster but they were absolute gems. To outrun Hill like that and kick at distance running full pace after a 100m sprint looks a lot easier to do than it is.
Still surprised by how the Crows were following the bye.

Only 11 points in the end.

The Saints are the ones in trouble, after three rounds they may end up with just 2 points with the draw.

Re: Round 3 Discussion

Anyone think Essendon could be a real threat or just in a good patch?

To early to call yet. I'm more inclined to lean towards good patch though. They're still pretty young and will find themselves hit the wall at some point during the season that is when the real test will take place. I think they're good enough to make the 8 though.

I hate Essendon but I'm not upset about seeing the Saints without a win after 3 rounds.

Re: Round 3 Discussion

For over a hundred years we had clubs wearing white shorts and black shorts now its an issue. Why can't we all wear our tradditional colours?

Collingwood aren't wearing their traditional tops of a white back with black stripes and black numbers.
