Geez Carlton just dont give up anymore do they.

If they get their starts sorted then watch out.

Carl v WCE is a bit nervy.

I thought the game was over. Switched to the North one.

Here comes the bloooz!

 

[Gods_Son23]

North game is looking over as well. 1st quarter.

Yep unlucky that we play both North and Carlton after they found some resolve. At least the North game is in Perth.

Just the sort of games you want running into finals if you ask me. You don't want ten goal thrashings against minnows, you want to be battle hardened for the tough stuff ahead.

Bloody love the Demons. The Melbourne bathwater being drunk four months ago was outrageous, and now they’re scraaaaaaaping past the Blues to lift themselves into 16th.

If we only ever break one club, I’m happy it was Melbourne.

“This is a win to blow your mind if you’re a Melbourne fan” says Dwayne Russell.

Aw that would have been nice for the Blues. I don't mind them these days, lots of WA players.

I think its illegal to report on most suicides. Same reason when people jump in front of trains the media calls them 'incidents'.

I don't think it's illegal, but there's good evidence that the way the media reports on suicides can lead to imitators, so ethical journalists/editors will handle the reporting sensitively. It's why they also always put links to crisis support lines in the articles.

Little wonder Titus turned to comedy; relying on humour is the only way you'd get by following that rabble.

Yeah we have to be very careful with how we report it. Unless there’s conclusive evidence it was a suicide attempt then it’s best to steer clear of labelling it one. No one saw what happened with Majak, he could very well have just slipped as unlikely as it seems.

St Kilda are such mediocre side

 

[ConcreteWaters]

It's going to be interesting to see what Collingwood do with the rest of their season. It's likely that it'll be better for them to finish 4th than 3rd and potentially play Geelong in an MCG Qualifying Final rather than us or GWS away. Has the AFL said exactly what would happen if Geelong and Coll are 1 and 4 at the end of the season? Should be at Kardinya. If I were at either club, I'd be seeking clarification. Could see a situation where Geelong might throw games to avoid Collingwood in the first week and have to play at the MCG.

Do you even need to ask when the AFL is all about the cash, 100% it would be at the MCG.

 

[TheGhostOfJohnBelushi]

There's zero chance Geelong would play Collingwood in Geelong. Won't happen.

Geelong's only real hope for a Geelong final is vs GWS.

 

[KERRPOW]

GWS look off.

 

[Quinz]

Lions looking great at the moment.

 

[Cuzz09]

Lions look good.

Big 2nd half ahead.

Sell me on why Brisbane winning is a good result. Both they and GWS seem to have some brutally hard games coming up, mixed in with a few easy kills. I can see both finishing the season with fairly even win totals.

Percentage aside they seem like almost identical propositions to me.

Brisbane don't have a vastly superior percentage to us. GWS do. We could finish on the same number of points as Brisbane and finish above them. Couldn't say the same vs GWS.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

This has been a big week for obvious revelations dawning on fan bases in denial.

First, the Pies fans realised Mason Cox isn’t worth the cost of his Visa, now it’s starting to dawn on Fremantle fans that Lachie Neale’s assessment of Brisbane > Freo may actually have some logic to it. Who knew?

Exactly. The last thing we want is to finish third and play GWS at Spotless wk 1. I have no fear of playing Brisbane at home in a week on qualifying final.
