This communist AFL comp is quite the joke. When perennial shit stain teams, are required to pay there pathetic lists, the same as teams, that are full of players which perform consistently.
No wonder there are so many spuds trotting around, going through the motions. They are no better than brain dead employees in dead end jobs.

Apply and you'll get the default grey background.

That's for Google Chrome but it should be fairly similar for all browsers.
Is this still correct dylan? I'm struggling to find the options button this time around. Just wasted half an hour on this.

My final table using this predictor

I really didn’t think I was that harsh on Port. Have their final run 4-6:

Beat Carlton St Kilda Bulldogs Essendon

Lose to Melbourne(h), Fremantle (a), GWS (h), Crows (a), Collingwood (a), West Coast (h)

Will need to win 2 of those losses to scrape in. Maybe beat us and Fremantle.

FFS they are bitching about the Cats playing "away" in Melbourne last year.

Its a completely tougher ball game for non-Vic sides having to beat a Vic side in Melbourne.

The AFL is not an even playing field, never has and unlikely will ever be in our lifetime.
I actually think the Cats have one of the biggest advantages in the competition.

Benefits of a genuine home ground against many teams.

Travel as little as any of the Victorian clubs.

Guaranteed to play a certain amount of games at the MCG so that it's not an unknown in finals.

Less likely to have to leave the state during the finals no matter where they finish in the 8.

I have little sympathy for them missing out on "home" finals.

Not GWS. Get rid of St Kilda and Gold Coast. North and Bulldogs on notice.
No, get rid of Saints and bulldogs/North and move Suns to Tassie, play half home in Hobart half in Launceston. Need to keep as many Non-vic teams as possible and cut back on the vic teams on life support.

There's no way Port finish 11th.

They'll beat us and Fremantle. I also think they'll beat Melbourne. Plus the four others you mentioned.

Even if they win 2 out of those 3, and win the other 4 they’re expected to win, they won’t get top 4.

Problem for Port is, outside of top 3 being Richmond, WC and Sydney, there are another 10 teams that run hot and cold and can beat anyone on their day.
