    Just caught the last 30 seconds of the Show Down.

    Dunno who played well or otherwise but we'll take it.

    4th! (Ok ... percentages and remaining results notwithstanding...)

    3rd.

    How'd we do that without playing anyone?

    7th now.

    1 point makes massive difference

    Injury depleted...

    Fucking Richmond nuffs

    All pretty much to script today.

    Lions need to go 7-6 from here out to play finals. Be a lot easier if we could kick straight

    Carlton bite the bullet and sack Bolton. I guess losing 39 of the last 43 is a good way to get yourself rissoled.

    Why is it that coaches always get sacked the week their sides are due to play against the team i support. Always happens to the Warriors. And who do Carlton play this weekend? oh yeah, the Lions. Fucking dead cat bounce.

    Lions beat the Hawks on the weekend to go 7-4 and sit in 5th. The next 3 are all very winnable against Carlton, St Kilda and Melbourne

    And buy blowing yet another game, you can stick a fork in Melbourne for the year as well. That's a hell of a fall from being preseason contenders.

    Geelong 2 games clear at the top now. I think the top 4 as it stands is what we will end up with at the end of the season.

    Sad for the Dees. It's almost like after so many poor to ordinary years, the first good one in a decade or more has placed an expectation on the guys that they just can't live up to. I feel for Nathan Jones. Wouldn't surprise me now if they went on a tear with the pressure off, and all too late.

    Nah fuck 'em ... Crows needed that win.

    Crows aren't that good really. Flukey win against the Dees who are nowhere.

    Mind you 8 of the last 9 goals ...

    Still, we're still at 7th.

    @booboo your forward line is so shit. Your captain is the biggest culprit too. If Eddie ever gets injured you'll struggle to kick 50

    To be in contention for a premiership, obviously you need talent, but you also need a fit list and everyone in form and on the same page ,

    That’s where Richmond were in 17 and 18 , first and third ,

    That’s where Geelong are now , looking the real deal

    Adelaide were doing that in June 2017 , Richmond last year ,

    The main concern for Geelong, it’s a pretty old team , their window will close pretty quickly , it’s now or never ,

    I like David kings analysis, and he said , when you come up with a new game plan or innovation, and it’s working really well, you have to capitalise on it straight away and win that premiership, because teams quickly work it out and it becomes yesterday’s news before you know it , and then it’s gone

    Josh Jenkins goes down with an apparent knee injury seconds before the final siren. 😥

    Hoping for the best 🙏

    I love AFL, but there's a lot of faggy shit these skinny fucks get away with.

    Stratton has spent all night pinching Fantasia's arm to the point where he has bruises. That is piss weak.

    There has always been an element of that compared to the rugby codes ,

    ive probably followed it longer than most here because of family connections in melbourne ,

    I can remember when it was anything goes in Rugby , League and Rules , early 80s ,

    In the rugby codes they would stand up facing each other and trade punches , in Aussie rules they would king hit guys in the back of the head when they werent looking
