For all discussion of the other matches in Round 22.

Here is the Fixture for Round 22

Sydney vs Hawthorn SCG 4:40pm AEST
West Coast vs Collingwood Patersons Stadium 7:40pm AEST

Only two games of real interest, would like to see Sydney and W/C get up

If Melbourne can beat Adelaide this week, we can drop to 16th and will have picks 3 and 4

After losing to Brisbane they may be vulnerable.

Maybe more importantly is that it will place us in front of Melbourne with regard to our bargaining power for the mini-draft.

I can't see Melb winning though.

Re: Round 22 - Other Matches

Essendon supporters will point to injuries as being their major reason for falling over in the second half of the year, but that's all part of player management and they have failed in that area big time.

It's so noticeable how poorly they spread away from the contest and provide an option for their team mates now that they have slowed down.

Richmond should be another two or three goals ahead of them right now.

Re: Round 22 - Other Matches

Commentators now talking about how deliberately rushed behinds should be interpreted in the same way as deliberate out of bounds.

Matthews is saying it should be treated as such to make the two rules consistently interpreted. Well Leigh, by your logic the flipside of your point of view should see us award a behind every time the ball goes out of bounds!

This guy is on the Laws of the Wankfest committee and can't even understand that there's a key difference between the two situations, which is a score being awarded against a team that rushes the ball for a behind. There's no need to interpret the rules in the same manner.

Great coach and player, but really misses the point sometimes.

None of this. It's the grey tops. they look like a bunch of Jockeys.

Richmond build the hype about themselves up again for 2013.

He's a bloody good player. I'd have him any day at the Bulldogs.

The guy just needs a hair cut. Maybe that will come with maturity.

Re: Round 22 - Other Matches

Cracking match between the Swans and Hawks could go either way at the minute.

Re: Round 22 - Other Matches

Could just be over now. Hawthorn up by 7 after it being goal for goal.

Re: Round 22 - Other Matches

Eagles beat the Pies and close in on a top 4 finish and the GC Suns beat the Blues to pretty much end their season.
