    A massive stretch by Robbo. My view is things will only change in this regard not because of this, but only if individuals make that choice themselves. And as we know some individuals will beat to their own drum no matter what has happened in the past.

    Why is the media referring to this as a brawl? At best, it was a melee. Waste of everyone's time. If the sledge had that response, it was a great sledge.

    3 weeks in a row , less than a goal ,

    if they were wins , outright first on the ladder, 2 were wins , first equal .

    but 3 losses , prob outside the 8 , its a fine line sometimes ,

    but 5-4 what they have, is probably more realistic where they sit anyway

    Good of the Crows to take their training run to Brisbane don't you think @mariner4life ?

    In all honesty I suspect you're probably somewhat inured to Lions results.

    @booboo i predicted 150-50 do we wete 20 points better than that.

    Just a team of kids, you can't expect anything better, but it's hard to see a future when Melbourne clubs come calling every year.

    We are the Swans bunnies. Whether it's home, nZ or Sydney, we just can't beat them. Buddy has had a day out every game since he moved.

    And yes what a finish by GWS.... 🙂

    Jesus what has happened to the Saints? That was poor on the weekend. Their next 5 look tough as well

    Hawthorn close to within a win of the 8...

    Brisbane lost their 9th in a row, and i can't see us winning again this year.

    Adelaide flying again (after Brisbane played them back in to form), and that was a good win for GWS, in Perth with half their team out. Comp still seems wide open to me

    What a club. Hawthorn are having a shit year, but still find something in themselves to set an AFL record.

    Anyone watch the Queens Birthday game yesterday? Best game i have seen this year i reckon, really intense, and enough errors to keep it fun. End to end stuff, both teams kick a hundred. And Collingwood lost. Great stuff.

    But, that result pales in to insignificance against the greatness that is the Lions absolutely hammering Freo. 10 goals? Fuck off home Dockers. A couple of days after we keep Schache, and then a bunch of guys re-signed today, it's actually starting to look up.

    Suns get a win on the back of the greatest of all time. Carlton knock over GWS. Bombers hammer Port. Glad i am not doing footy tipping.

    Melbourne now 8-5 and into 5th spot, at least for a day. Definitely starting to deliver, knocking off various hoodoos and looking a serious threat. They're still a little inconsistent but fuck I'll take this over the results of the last 12 years or so.

    @booboo massive holes in the gameplan. Crows no chance for the flag

    That rebuild took a long long time though , picked a heap of duds In the beginning with high picks , in the end they got it right
