Who was it that was saying that the depth of quality in the league was as good as ever? Blues, Suns and Lions forgot the script today.

Ive actually never seen west coast lose a free kick count at home apart from round 1 against Sydney

They said that last week... So bipolar.

Game day!!!

 

[TeeKray]

Went to my first game at Optus tonight.

Shit game but the stadium is outstanding. Not as sterile in real life as it looks on TV. The audio visuals are outstanding. Would recommend people check it out if you get the chance.

Hoping to get there later in the year, it looks sensational

No we don't. There should always be dominant teams and shit teams in any era. The trick is to rotate it around with reasonable equalisation methods. There's enough upsets still to keep it interesting but the 'any given Sunday' approach where everyone should be competitive every game bores me.

I've watched about 6 NBL games the the last couple of weeks that have gone down to the last 10 seconds at least 4-5 MLB games that you just couldn't pick 4-5 rugby games that have been outstanding and then there's the Premier League. The standard of afl at present you would watch by accident. It's not going to engage you.

I was scrolling at the games on replay to watch. Knowing the scores there is nothing of interest

Footscray-South Melbourne was close...

 

[Duck Farmer]

The NBA does the other way around, which is interesting. The visitors travel with only one kit, while the home team adjusts to it. It makes sense.

If only the fixture was worked out months in advance instead of the day before the game so the teams could plan to wear contrasting strips instead of surprising the fans when they burst through the banner.

There are many ways of avoiding what happened in Hobarth. I listed one. Clubs announcing their kits in advance would be another.

Top of the live ladder

West Coast
GWS
Port
Richmond
Sydney
North

we need North to start going the other way seeing how we have their 3rd round pick ....

(so it is as close to the 2nd round as possible)

 

[LFC2010]

Carlton vs Suns - 28k
Collingwood vs GWS - 30k
Footscray vs WCE - 22k
Richmond vs Brisbane - 32k

Theme.

Port vs freo 38k = tarps
Port v Brisbane 37k = tarps

I tipped Carlton.

lol

I didn't tip Carlton .. but I wish they would start winning......

Only because it would annoy cow supporters who are loving Carltons position because they have Carltons 2nd round pick (which is now 19)

we have the Saints 2nd round pick (which is now 22) and it would be great if our pick was before the cows ....

 

[Waspy79]

Carlton were far too generous in handing back their second round pick. It was always going to be in the vicinity of 19-25.

Head-to-head hasn't happened yet (Round 17, Friday Night game). It could become a kind of "Draft Showdown."

hopefully by then Carlton goes higher than the Saints ....

Oh, if we win the melts will intensify.

That will be the icing on the cake, I'll just be over the moon if we win.

Don't worry, give it time. They don't get to play Carlton every week.

857 was the crowd at Noarlunga yesterday.

Whatever happened to those 4,000 crowd figures that the Crows promised for their games in the SANFL ?

C’mon, they all had pleurisy from the night before and they were denied access to the hill on their gophers.

How long does Bolton survive?
