    The Swans don't really suck though. They are fun to watch. Missing a bunch of their best players they are still going hard every week. Papley is a gun, Rampe and Mills are great, guys like Aliir, Blakey and Florent are developing well.

    And the roller coaster continues
    Richmond absolutely hammer the Dogs, who had been going alright. It was one way traffic last night, and Dusty pretty much did what ever he wanted. The Dogs' defensive structure completely fell apart.

    It's frustrating to watch. Good to see Damien making the call to dump under-performing players. Thankfully despite the injury list, we can call from a pretty handy VFL squad.

    @Kiwiwomble it's okay, no matter how much you suck, Adelaide are worse.

    Adelaide have an AFL team? Who knew?

    Prestia , Edwards , caddy , houli , vlastun , Astbury, nankervous currently unavailable , but was good to get the skipper back. Had 10 players under 30 games .

    Have some exciting young talent , some like balta are making a serious claim for a permanent spot .

    Probably head into the game against the lions with a younger more inexperienced team , they are in great form And building nicely, I think the goal is to try and keep in touch with the ladder and hopefully make a late charge when back at full strength if it’s not too late .

    Crazy season. I think any team that makes the 8 will fancy themselves a chance to win the flag. There is just no consistency week to week from anyone.

    How good is Buckley making Eddie look like a loud-mouthed fool, again. And predictably Collingwood slumped again yesterday. Out of the 8 now.

    The great irony is Pies supporters are probably responsible:

    Port Adelaide are pretty bloody good. The Dogs had a real crack at them last night, and just couldn't get it done.

    I think Charlie Dixon might be my favourite non-Lions player in the comp

    Yeah he's great. Feel a bit for the Dogs, I think they're a top 8 team but in back-to-back games they have run into resurgent Richmond and a fired-up Port at home.

    Richmond-Brisbane tonight will be a belter.

    they don't use the ball well by foot, and they have no targets up front. The Port tall defenders picked them off at will last night.

    Should be good tonight. I get the feeling we'll lose this. The Lions are playing a baby backline, so probably Dusty gets off the chain, and then it's lights out. And in games with high pressure, the goal kicking stats go through the floor.

    I just hope it's a quality game with a decent score.

    Richmond were scary good last week. But they have been pretty hot and cold so far, so no result would really shock me. At their best the Tigers win by 20, but who knows if they will deliver that.
