Yes, I use Roman numerals now and once again, it's not just about this week's games.
This week's edition was very difficult due to Freo and Richmond abandoning their roots for the sake of four points, it reminded me of the movie ''The Gods Must Be Crazy". Thankfully, the Saints and the team Gary Ablett Jnr plays for stayed true.
A scene from "The Gods Must Be Crazy". This picture symbolises my surprise at Richmond and Freo both winning in Round 5.
A nice picture of Megan Gale. I saw her in the Captain's Bar after the game. While she isn't as pretty as Jennifer Hawkins, she is probably a bit better than the average patron. Andy was also there, but Hamish wasn't. Very odd.
HOT
St.Kilda
5-0 and a percentage of 211.8 means they are hotter than Zac Efron if he lived on the sun. These guys truly have the balance between attack and defence down pat at the moment. Whether it’s in wet conditions at Football Park or under the roof at Docklands (yeah that’s right, I am not calling them by their sponsor’s names, take that whitey!) the Saints are looking the real deal.
Gary Ablett Jnr (and Geelong)
Compared to last week, little Gazza was a little down with only 42 touches and 2 goals (one absolute gem) but i will forgive the boy and keep him in the hotties list. I really felt for the Lions today. A cold, rainy day at Kardina Park against the Cats, would any of you though any less of them if they called a forfeit, packed their bags and got the first flight back to Bris Vegas?
Carlton
I know a few hate it when I put them in the hotties list and will say hurtful things like "if you love them so much, why don't you marry them?" but that's silly and I thought they were very impressive today. Judd was down and Fev wasn’t great but Kreuzer, Murphy, Gibbs and Simpson all stepped up to the plate. Kicking 21 goals with only 3 coming from Fev is massive for a side that has been overly reliant on his contribution. It’s a super even comp outside the Cats and the Saints at the moment and a top four finish is there for the taking.

Collingwood
How, oh how, did they lose that game? You let the ANZACs and their spirit down Collingwood, shame on you!
Western Bulldogs
Two losses in a row and we are back in the pack. Our 3 wins have come against bottom 5 teams and we have an enormous test against the Saints next week. As obvious as it sounds, our forward line structure is a massive worry and we will always struggle against quality sides that don’t let our midfield walk it inside 50. It wasn’t all bad, Megan Gale sat near our table in the bar after the game.
North Melbourne
There’s no better way of making the notties list than losing to the Tiggers. Losing Boomer to a long term injury is obviously going to hurt big time. The footy they played in their two wins this year was not very impressive and they have put in two shockers over the last three weeks.
