@booboo Port's first win in that fixture for a long time. That one hurts aye?
2nd week in a row, Lions play in a thriller, kick a score. And lose.
What hurts more is Carlton, who are shitter than us, got a win. Fucking Bombers.
Getting a little sick of hearing about our "future" and how we have a lot to look forward to. My very real fear is our guns will get poached home to Victoria before we ever get to properly climb the ladder. It's hard to maintain hope sometimes.

That was a good comeback by the Lions. For a while in the fourth quarter I thought their momentum would carry them through. Thankfully others in the squad are stepping up so our stars don't have to play brilliant games week in, week out.

Lions!!!
Hodgey gets to sing the song! Fucken bewdie!

Two huge wins to the Dees the last two weeks, and 5 or 6 on the bounce now. They're fantastic to watch and could be genuine contenders but need to atone yet for a couple of bad losses earlier in the season before I get really excited. Might sound odd given they're in third spot but they've still been inconsistent in quality of performance and I'd love to see them knock over West Coast, Richmond or Sydney but we don't get Richmond again in the regular season and the others are back to back in August. Pity we don't get a revenge shot at Hawthorn either.

This time of year is mostly about trying to bank the points ,
It appears to be between west coast , Richmond , Melbourne at this point in time , but September is still along way away , think we will see a few more twists and turns yet .

Nat Fyfe suspended for a week. By all accounts was leading the Brownlow. Watch him poll less votes for the rest of the year to avoid embarrassment on Brownlow night.
Lions with a tough loss on the weekend, well beaten in the first half by North, and lost 3 of our best players. 2nd half fight back was actually pretty impressive for a very young team facing those circumstances. We now have the drug cheats, and i would have had us a chance if Christensen, McLuggage, and Cameron were available. Now? not so much

So much chat around the Gold Coast being a complete failure, how the AFL should cut their losses and move the team to Tasmania.
A few points:
They are not last, they have won 3 games;
They lost to St Kilda basically after the siren on the weekend;
They have only played at home twice all season.How do absolute basket cases like Carlton and St Kilda get overlooked for movement? They are shit. Have been shit for a very long time. Don't have anywhere near the excuses that the Suns have. And yet there is no talk of winding them up and moving them on.
People were talking the Saints to challenge for the 8 this year, but they are just terrible. Carlton were supposed to push on for 6 wins, and yet they have gone backwards.
Because they are old clubs in melbourne, they are guaranteed their future. They will continue to ruin the careers of high draft picks, and be a destination for players wanting to "return home" getting high salaries and also destroy their careers.
Oh, and no one is beating the Tigers at the MCG this year, the season is basically over.

i watched it. It was unreal. Essendon are shit. The Eagles are good. But last night? The bombers went through the corridor like they expected to win by 10 goals, and just fucked West Coast. I am loath to admit it, but it was good to watch.
Not a great week to be associated with optus
-
Essendon are capable of playing free flowing football if you allow them .
They tried that with us early in the Dreamtime game and we strangled them ,then they folded .
Could be just an off night for wc , most teams will have a few of those per season

I want Jeremy Cameron banned for life. I want his kids banned for their lives. I want GWS de-registered and sent to Tasmania. I am also not ruling out a tactical drone strike.

Clearly deliberate and he'll serve maybe four-six weeks. For the sort of thing you'd be facing a custodial sentence for.

Given how fucked Andrews apparently is (admitted to hospital that night), should go straight to the Tribunal and he should get a significant whack. I would settle for 12 months...

5 weeks is fucking lenient

Way hey! good guys win one! Watched till about half time and Crows looked better but behind on the board. Must have managed to kick a couple in the second half. So remain in touch but I think still outside the 8.
Meanwhile Barry Hall ...
... pretty uncouth. Type of disgusting comment that is uncomfortable even on a stag do ... -
West Coast look to be on the slide ,
I reckon they might drop right out of contention ,
Magpies and Power the big improvers , im tipping both of them to make the 4 with swans and Tigers
