So I gave up on the results when doing North Melbourne. I might re-do them later if I can be bothered. How satisfying is it to see Richmond and Carlton right near the bottom? It's going to take us a while to undo the mess the Bears left but I think we'll forge our own path in the not too distant future. It's a bit annoying to see the SA and WA teams have done so well at Carrara. We have the chance to break Port's winning record tomorrow.

Well. Them, University and Fitzroy

But something tells me we'll be waiting a while for the latter two.

So Richmond beat the Lions in Brisbane last night. I find it strange that the Tigers do well at the Gabba but don't perform well at Carrara. Very odd.
