@shark they are good to watch too. Great rebuild.
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

Yes! Last night hurts a lot less now that I have watched the lions run over the drug cheats

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.
Fuck Shark this was so poorly timed! Since this post they've lost; lost their best player, had 4 guys "dropped" for drinking, and are about to lose a guy for about 6 weeks for knocking a bloke out.
Culture looking very suspect. On field they are out of troops, and it doesn't look like they'll play finals.

Saints 'secure' in the 8 with 3 consecutive wins
Even though it was Freo, great to get a win over in the West. Haven't won there in ages.
Pies losing, like sweet music to the ears. That Lions win was impressive from the highlights I saw.
Cats seem to get the rub of the green every week....

You have to think this ends the Dogs for 2017.
Can't believe they let Sloan off the chain. Suicide

Well the night wasn't a complete fizzer with my Saints thumping the Tigers.

Richmond play their best game of the year beating port away and follow it up with their worst ,
Didnt see it , but thats what ive been told
-
Richmond comfortably account for GWS to cement their position in the top four.
-
They have exceeded everyone's expectations so far this year ,
With only two players on their whole list taken as top 4 picks , it's either been a remarkable rebuild , or they are playing above themselves,
Jury still out I guess. -
Lions get a 4th win playing our fastest, sexiest football in years. Then hang on grimly. We're a good chance to escape the spoon now

Never had a lot of love for Hawthorn, but two of the absolute best layers of the last 15 years are both retiring at the end of the year. Luke Hodge is probably my favourite player in the league, tough as fuck, composed, skillful, fit as a motherfucker, and has massive games on the biggest stage.
And the other guy that made Hawthorn tick was Sam Mitchell. Another who is fucking tough (with a dirty streak, like Hodge. Lets call it playing right on the edge), just an amazing ball user who sat behind the contest, and won clearance after clearance, and at times, even in GFs made the game look like it was in slow motion. Also there was this:
Best visual sledge ever. Hero.

In the beginning , hawks were ridiculed for picking hodge with their pick 1, west coast picked up Judd with pick 2 and for a while he was the superstar of the competition,
The Hodge selection was justified in the end
