goddamit where's @shark to talk about the Dees?
Two losses on the bounces, and then Stephen May gets on the piss while under concussion protocols, tells Jake Melksham that they would have lost the GF if he'd played. Jake Melksham was an age grade boxing champ, so dropped May. Fight breaks shit in a restaurant.
May gets a week suspension, Melksham has surgery on his hand.
Stirring stuff.
- 3 losses on the bounce

if you want some really good salt
find Carlton fans online. Ooosh they're taking last night well
they're 9-4 and going well, but shit they have had a dream draw.

Completely outplayed in the first half and then couldn’t hit the lead with the Tigers closing out better and their fans on talkback radio here in Melb are up in arms about one umpire call?
Not that I like Richmond, but suck it up Blues.

Which one? The finger tips on the kick at goal late on?

Tough couple of weeks for the Saints

Tough couple of weeks for the Saints
We sucked last night, other than that 10-15 minute stretch in the 3rd when we kicked 5 in a row.
No run from halfback, poor kicking and we are quickly becoming predictably with our entries into 50.

Suns quietly putting together a good season despite the injuries. Putting away the teams they should, competing with everybody else.

just more evidence that this Lions group will never win a flag
We are one of those teams that look good in the H&A season, scoring pretty goals against shit teams, playing well on small decks. Then completely clueless in big games against good sides.
The team are the playing embodiment of their coach, just a bunch of nice guys. We aren't hard enough to win finals. We aren't mean enough to win finals. And frankly we aren't good enough to win finals.
Fages will not win a flag as a coach. But then the culture he has brought to the place can not be denied. We are a destination club, and the players we have want to stay. Would a change to a harder, more tactical coach blow that up? Tough decision at Board level.

Sainnnnnnnnnnnnttttttttsssssss
are back

Good win that. Love it when Carlton lose, the online salt is delicious
Lions smack the Dogs but it felt very hollow after last week.
-
and the weird season keeps going
Essendon beat Sydney
North are historically awful, this week only scoring 32 points.
Carlton refuse to arrive.The bottom 4 have a combined record of 11-49.
which leads to 3 wins covering 1-9.This season is so open still. I think Melbourne deserve to be heavy favourites, but genuinely i could see anyone in the top 8 knocking them over in a one-off game.

Some big games next weekend
Dees v Cats - 1 v 2. Even if Dees lose they will probably remain on top just by % alone
Swans v Dogs - 8 v 10. Only a game the difference and Dogs need to be able to remain in touch.
Suns v Tigers - 11 v 7. Probably now or never for the Suns. They do have the running game to trouble the Tigers.
Saints v Dockers - 9 v 4. A bit of a rivalry with these two teams dating back to the whole Ross Lyon thing. Saints will want to get some momentum after a good win, Dockers scraped by a plucky Port yesterday and will want to remain in touch with top 4.
Lions v Bombers - 3 v 16. Could be a banana skin game for the Lions if Essendon continue recent form. Brissy gave the Dogs a nice touch up but I do like how the Bombers have been able to score lately.

Dusty to the Swans rumour seems to have legs.
If they can keep both him and Buddy fit in September they will be a problem

@mariner4life really, what have you seen, lots of chatter a while back but hadnt seen anything recently so thought it was all talk

i am seeing someone talk about it every day now. And Caroline Wilson refuses to dismiss it, and she is not one to throw hot takes out willy nilly
