    so given what Eddie Betts said in his book it's pretty easy to see why the Crows imploded after that GF.

    That camp was fucked up, and the company that ran it is obviously not right in the head.

    following on from this, Mark Ricciuto is a piece of shit, and should be sacked because it is clear he doesn't have the moral compass to resign

    I haven't bothered looking into it but how is Ricciuto involved?

    he's on the Board. he was on the Board then

    his "statement" on the radio amounted to nothing more then "i hope Eddie Betts can get over it"

    Just zero accountability

    @mariner4life not the first time Mark has tried to justify the camp publicly either.

    Sure if it was a regular camp that was a little tougher then normal and Eddie struggled (I think he’s always had issues with the old skin fold tests), sure Eddie might have to “get over it”. But far too much has come from this to be some beat up or just a couple of ex players / players coming off contract with axes to grind.

    How good was the Dees v Pies last night? Huge crowd and a good tight game. Great win for Collingwood

    And Dees leading for most of the game. The belief in Pie land is sky high.

    Geelong win. Collingwood win. Dees lose. Sydney win. Brisbane win. Freo win. All definitely playing finals.

    Carlton lose, and suddenly optimism looks very shaky. They've got Melbourne and Collingwood. But the Saints have it no easier with Brisbane and Sydney. The Dogs aren't done yet, but they would need big wins over GWS and Hawthorn.

    Freo with the easiest draw to make the top 4.

    Essendon losing to GWS the only lol of the weekend really.

    Having two historically terrible teams is making a funny looking ladder.

    looool

    you'll never convince me of two things
    Vic bias doesn't exist
    The AFL isn't above manufacturing results to get their desired outcome

    If Cripps wasn't Carlton's best player, and if Carlton weren't (somehow) one of the biggest clubs out there. And if said big club wasn't one the verge of playing a final for the fist time in memory. Then no fucking way does that ban get overturned.

    @ACT-Crusader she's a tough old gig aye? Fucking sucks when your club misses sitters to win a game.

    I'll take the win though. Fuck knows what the lions have at half time but it's not good. Their third quarters are taipans-esque

    @mariner4life season over. Our goal kicking accuracy has been poor for 3 seasons.

    Arghhhh.

    Bulldogs scrape home in what was a tough watch.

    Blues will be absolutely kicking themselves to let that one drop. Now it’s on the line for them next week against the Pies in what could be the biggest home and away crowd in footy history. Pies to stay in top 4 and have double chance and blues playing to stay in the 8. At the G, will be epic.

    and so, with a round to go, we still have 10 alive, though the Saints would need to flog the absolute fuck out of Sydney to make it.

    Sydney finally end Collingwood's streak, which threw them from 2nd to 5th because of their ordinary percentage.
    Carlton do a Carlton and throw away a win over Melbourne, and now they have to play Collingwood on Sunday and win in front of probably 400,000 baying bogans.
    The Bulldogs probably only need to beat Hawthorn and have Carlton lose to play finals.
    Richmond are in, will finish 7th, and suddenly finishing 6th looks very treacherous.

    Lions play Melbourne on Friday night, winner to the top 4, loser probably to 5th

    Geelong have minor premiership sewn up, and will probably run out the U16s to play WC in the final round

    The order of 2nd to 6th will all depend on results this weekend which is pretty cool for the competition.

    That Carlton loss was as big a gut punch as I can remember. They didn't even really blow it, Melbourne stepped up and won it, but man it stings.

    didn't Essington have quite the day yesterday? Mid-morning they had sacked their coach.

    By mid-afternoon he was unsacked (okay it was all media hearsay really, but you look around it, with the extraordinary board meeting etc it was weird)

    Now there is very much the chat it's all about getting Clarkson. The chat was yesterday they thought it was on, so were making moves on Rutten, then it was off, so Rutten was back. Either way, it does look like Rutten is gone after another horrible season.
