    Hotties & Notties w/ Rocco Jones: Round 3 edition

    Welcome to 3rd installment of Hotties & Notties. Posters in the previous threads have asked about why I have picked certain sides as hot and not so here is the formula I use to pick out my hotties and notties
    - Most important factor: Last game they have played.
    - Next most important factor: Last couple of games before that
    - Next, next most important factor: Season in general
    - Probably the most important factor when I come to think about it: Random rubbish that comes to mind the night I do it.
    - Also, pretty important: Quality of YouTube videos the club puts out.


    HOT


    St.Kilda

    Their defensive pressure has been great this year but the most promising thing has been their improvement in attack. Dal Santo and Kosi are back and Montagna is turning into the gun explosive midfielder they need. Freo at home next up, that percentage might just get healthier.

    Essendon
    Congratulations to the inaugural nottie to hottie. Lloyd made a few critics look silly with 5 goals. They seem to rate beating Carlton on par with winning 10 premierships in a row these days, so good on them.


    Western Bulldogs

    Isn't it great to put in a relatively poor performance and still win by 8 goals? Beating the Tiges is always fun and watching Wallace front up On The Couch was the icing on the cake.

    --------------Hot/Not Equator---------------------------- (not drawn to scale)--------------------


    Fremantle

    The modern game places an enormous value on pace and disposal and Freo are sadly lacking in both areas. Who in their midfield warrants close checking? Pav reminds of the underachievers from the Clerks movies. I am enjoying Cameron Noakes' Freo love though.


    Richmond

    We were below our best today and still beat them by 8 goals. Can anyone in their side outside of Newman kick a football? Jake King pretty much sums them up at the moment.


    North Melbourne

    Chookgate and a 9 goal loss get them the gong this week. Theye explosiveness of Wells and Harvey is vital to North but both have struggled massively. On that video, what I found most offensive was how unfunny it was. Don't quit your day job North Melbourne, what that is.

    I can't beleive 'the fab four' which are yet to collectively achieve anything fell of the hot list.

    Saints doggies in a few weeks looms large to determine who is really a hottie.

      Richmond vs Melbourne this week does the opposite.

        Could it be the innaugural Rocco Jones 'Nottie' Cup?

          Sounds like another good reason to tank.

            Neither will have to try too hard

            If the Tiges cant get the chocolates against the Dees then I'd look to get out of the G early as their fans start tearing it down

            Of the Fab four - Judd was close to BOG and Murphy was very good. I dont think they deserve to be notties, but its a ridiculous nickname when they include Stevens.

                Looks like a matter of whom can out-tank who?

                      Yeah I remember Wyndy spending a night before a game at the hospital and coming out to smash Corey McKernan.

                        Exactly! The son of my partner, unfortunately an unreconstructed Essendon supporter who unlike his mother has yet to see the light, says Knighter can coach the Dons forever as long as they keep beating Carlton; ignore all the other results for the year, they pale into insignificance.

                              Don't think our win over a hapless Richmond justifies our position in the 'Hotties' section. Personally I thought Brisbane's win over Sydney was more deserving of accolades than it has received. Brisbane hadn't beaten Sydney for 3 or 4 years and did so in conditions (wet & slippery) that probably suit the hard-nosed Swans a bit more.

                              When you factor in your factor's Sydney had just come off a big win over the Hawks which makes Brisbane's win even more credible.
