1. Geelong can still win a game by 10 goals when they couldn't really give a fu8k.
2. Of the many teams in contention for spots 4-8 North Melbourne want it the most.
3. Tiger supporters won't be happy until their team goes through a season undefeated.

1. That Franklin's marking combined with his pace is second to none
2. Jimmy Bartel is making a bid for a second Brownlow and will romp the votes in while Ablett is injured
3. The last two Friday night games have been great to watch as a Hawks supporter

In round 5. I think it's fair to say that Geelong has changed gears since then.

Speaking of changing gears...How has Sydney gone in their last 5 games?

1. Brisbane will continue to give me the shits (3rd time's the charm)
2. Johnstone should have stayed in Melbourne Laughing
3. Brown and Bradshaw can't consistenly carry a team (which also took a few close losses to confirm), no matter how gun they are

i reckon bulldogs are pretenders... narrow victory against a depleted swans (who i dont really rate either). its forgone conclusion, cats have it in the bag. hawks may give them a run for their money but i doubt it. good to see so many vic teams in the top 8

Havent rated them all yr.

after their top 10 they drop away too much. I have said previously they have too many tryhards.

Against the dogs they got beat by 5 goals, it was a 10 goal game the scoreboard flattered the Hawks.

Last week they played the Cats and with the inclusions for the Cats in the coming weeks, you cant seriously believe the Hawks are any chance against them.

I thought Sydney playing their version of cr@p might be a chance but they dont have the legs.

The bulldogs are the one side that can match it with the cats in every dept. speed,strength and skill.[/quote]
Yet they got blown away by ten goals.
Interesting.

1. North can actually beat Brisbane in Brisbane (don't argue with me on this)
2. North could very well bring up the extra man infringement again if they're tied with Sydney for fourth at the end of 22 rounds
3. WC are Fremantle's bi-atch in - wait, I already knew that. Uhhhhhhh. Lloyd can fly!

I hope they do because if if continues on as i predicted we are both going to finsh on equal points with the swans about 15% better off.
You can bet the AFL will just say tough luck as usual because its North! Doubt

Why is it interesting? The finals aren't played at Skilled. You're a Hawks supporter are you?

1) Richmond is like a chameleon… they change complexion week by week.

2) When 21 to 7 are the Free kicks in favor of a team you know that the men in white played their part in the way a result went.

3) Geelong is still a 6 to 10 goal better team than all others in the comp.


no, it generally means that one side is playing in front more and playing the ball

1) Brisbane wont make the finals
2) Bradd Deziell is more than just a 1 game wonder
3) I'm not wasting my saturday afternoon at york park to go watch brisbane this week - they p.iss me off to much

Agree... Richmond just resemble a pathetic 2003 Geelong side right now. There is no telling what Richmond will do in 2009

In his 4th season as a coach Wallace is doing better with his pathetic team than what Thompson was doing in his 4th season with his pathetic team.

1..Barry Hall has a massive problem and should either retire or take a break till the end of the season.....
2. Shauny Mac has a great careeer considering he has no ability
3. Franklin is the best player to watch ever!!......there has been better players dont get me wrong but from a pure entertainment point of view hes the best to watch bar none...spped, strenth good below his feet....best banana kicker of the ball i have ever seen...plays the game fair also..hard but fair...

3. Welsh is still a gun.
