Fyfe being Fyfe
Friday night's game
Hated: The excuses from the media to get Dangerfield out of a suspension already coming out.
Learnt: Brisbane fans have taken over from St. Kilda fans as the most conspiratorial umpire-haters.

Liked: Virtually securing finals for another year. Dawson Simpson getting his chance.
Learnt: Dees and Saints aren't mentally ready for September. If they were then they'd both have won on the weekend.
Hated: Losing the % irrelevancy over Adelaide. Collingwood... SMH.

Learned: some people (ironically) never learn - after being called out religiously by the footballing public for dummy spits Shaw and Goddard each throw epic tantrums, Goddard's costing a needless goal when percentage is crucial
Disliked: Melbourne. Have plenty of Dees supporter mates who will be gutted and it's unforgivable to blow a game like that with so much on the line.

Liked:
1. Coniglio's return, our vice captain is back.
2. Our crowds at Spotless geting larger and more involved in the game. On a par with Canberra now I think and thats great.
Learnt:
Nat Fyfe is a classy person. In a strange incident he seemed to be the only person on the field aware Will Setterfield was unconscious after a contest and stayed with him when they play moved on. Made sure he was ok and signalled our bench for help.
Hated:
This wont be popular but I hate all the negativity from supporters towards their team. From any club including ours. People are entitled to a view but a supporters job is to wear the colours and cheer in my view. I think it's pretty rare that a BF postsr knows more than the coaches at a club and it's usually best to have a little faith.

I re-learnt that the media are clueless.
Many scribes have Sydney as the form team and making it to the pointy end of the season. They are 10-8.
Many scribes have written the Eagles off and believe their list needs a decent cull at the end of the season. They are 10-8.

Liked:
1. Hooker playing on another 3-gamer and having a shizen one! Karma bites the man-bun and deservedly so!
2. How quickly the seasons change. Adelaide back to the pack after a draw, Dogs equal 8th with arguably the easiest game of any team in that 'pack' this week against the Lions (Yes I remember how well we went against Fremantle in the last round last year..)
Learned:
1. Anyone suggesting St Kilda will need to go through another little rebuild once Montagna and Riewoldt retire are kidding themselves, not enough credit given to them. They lost to Port Adelaide with one of the last kicks in the game at Adelaide Oval. Not many teams are going to get near Port Adelaide at home.
2. Jesse Hogan is ******* unlucky. Football gods, regular gods, anyone, give this man a break (no pun intended)
Hated:
1. Not a lot to dislike about this round, Carlton and Brisbane being beaten up is never nice to see but it is where they're at and will be better for it.

Hated- Dangerfield on CH7 this morning. He is as cringeworthy as it gets. Stick to footy, stay out of the media.

Liked : Better effort from Hawkins
Learned: It's still wide open, who bloody knows what will happen in September, right now on form it's the Dogs again isn't it?
The tackle is on the way out, it might take 10 years, but it is ultimately doomed.
Hated: WTF were Adelaide doing in a "white away" strip playing a team who already have "white" in their guernsey? Where was their "yellow" strip?
The media such as Sam McClure and Mark Stevens were out with the pitchforks and torches over Dangerfield when the majority of former players of the game all think there was nothing in it.
Brown, Darcy, Ling and Richo all staggered if this results in a suspension. It's a circus. Trial by media wins.
Heath Shaw, Brendon Goddard carrying on like a couple of sausage wallets!

Hawks have the most heart
Crows and GWS don't convince me
Buckley isn't to blame for Collingwoods woes, they're just a mentally weak outfit
Dees self destruct and when they're faves, crumble. They';; touch up GWS next week though.
Western Bulldogs - they could win it again.
Dockers - should have their name changed to chokers.

LEARNT: We have some youngsters who are going to be alright in the coming years.

Learned: 50 points is not a big enough lead
Hated: The AFL having backed itself into a corner with its injury-phobic manoeuvrings such that a Brownlow favourite must be be suspended for a minor incident

Learnt: Swans have a near-perfect starting side. However, they have no depth. 1 domino falls, the whole structure crumbles. May get away with it against lesser sides, but not against top 4 competition. Unfortunate.

With the yellow on at least David Mackay would have stopped passing to collingwood players. Finally discovered his root problem.
Liked - Fyfe's act with Setterfield. Good act.
Learned - No standout flag favourites. In fact runs of form are going to be irrelevant this year, who turns up on the day will win.
Hated - The Dangerfield Circus. Should not be ban because it wasn't that bad, should be ban because others have gone for less, wont be ban bevcause of who he is and what he has not done. The AFL have made this mess not the player.

It doesn't take a genius to figure out that if the opposition is wearing black and white and you have a choice between blue, yellow and white, that white should not be your first or second choice!
