    Those misses by Geelong are going to be costly. Hawkins confidence is down.

    Geelong are playing better and I barracking for Gary Rohan. He's been ok.

    They were, hot last 5 minutes from Port ! That was nasty with Duursma. Reckon he copped contact in the contest, when his head hit the ground, and the ( accidental) elbow when Blicavs came down as well.

Possibly because they were often our easybeats in past seasons, or maybe because they have a history of not so good performances in AFL finals? But now, I'm grudgingly thinking, that since they've been on top of the ladder all season, then they probably deserve a win or two. And I don't really know where Geelong are at. We looked the better side, for much of our final game, before a quick burst put them a couple of goals in front. So what is their true form?

    Tomorrow night it's Brisbane v Richmond. A few seasons ago, I was quite pleased for the long suffering Richmond fans, when they jagged an unexpected premiership. But alas, their continued success is starting to grate on me: so go the Lions.

    Saturday twilight is St Kilda v Western Bulldogs. While I never really held a grudge against the Bulldogs, for the umpiring that they received in 2016, their blatant chucking has been irritating me this year: so, go the Saints.

    On Saturday night, it's West Coast v Collingwood. Hmmm. You know how I opened this thread, by saying that I suppose that I care? Well, in regards to this game, I genuinely don't.
    Cracking thread title.

    @@@@ Richmond, man. Arrogant and entitled all year. Lions all the way.

    I haven't watched, just tuning in, but notice he has 4 disposals and a tackle. What have I missed?

    I'm actually getting strong positive Cat vibes for tonight's game too.

    If we jump forward to the flag....it's Lions or Saints for me (that my hopes, not my tips).
    I used to like Geelong, but Chris Scott has ruined them for me.

    Geelong have had the benefit of 2 howling non calls both involving Rohan.

    If Hawkins kicks straight, Cats win......but bad kicking is bad football.

    You know what I like most about Gary Rohan. When you sort the stats sheet by disposals, you always know where to find his name.

    Never that simple. If Hawkins kicks straight the ball goes back to a centre bounce and everything changes. A counterfactual - no one knows what would have happened.

    Port were the better team over the match but particularly in second half. They deserved the win.
