It's teams such as Collingwood, Richmond, Hawthorn and Essendon that have benefited most from the Suns' and Giants' extra picks (while Carlton attempted to). There will be massive change if either the Suns or the Giants win a premiership in the coming seasons, but in the meantime things are trundling along nicely for the Melbourne powerhouses so the status quo will be maintained for now.
Lovely to see WC, Hawthorn and Freo go down so far this weekend, and Collingwood blow yet another comfortable lead. Hopefully North get rolled, followed by a Bloods victory. Shaping up for a perfect weekend.
It's very hard to live in a studio apartment in San Jose with a man who's learning to play violin. That's what she told the police when she handed them the empty revolver.
The Scarlatti Tilt - Richard Brautigan
Delicious last night.
Crows looking a rabble and getting thrashed with nothing bright on their horizon, fast fading senior players, no youngsters showing much, poor list.
Suns, well that was compelling viewing, just the way they played, you can really see the depth of talent there. Have pulled all the right reins since Mark Evans and Stewie Dew arrived. Doubt there will be any more go home factor at the Suns, looks to be a very exciting place to be and no southern winter to suffer through!
Next week, Suns versus Crows, that should be exceptionally delicious. Crows for the Wooden Spoon!
They incorrectly take into account whether the player has concussion. It shouldn't matter if the player is injured. On the footy show this morning they showed examples of sling tackles where the player was suspended and I thought the force of those tackles was less than Burgoyne's.
15th place, that would be pick 4 in the ND, should be a pick we can use before having to match Campbell. This will be the most interesting season ever with no one really having any idea where teams rate. After two rounds we only have three undefeated teams and no idea who will be in the eight or who will be cellar dwellers.
We got beat by a kick with a number of players having shockers, just one of Buddy, Reid, Naismith would have got us over the line yesterday. Plenty of improvement to come but Norf next week? I watched a bit of their game against GWS, very impressive.
On Rowbottom, I also don't see anything to get excited about at this stage, does the occasional nice thing but doesn't scream draft bargain to me. Ollie impresses me the more I see of him, making real progress now.
Burgoyne decision is plain wrong, who have to penalise the action as one week minimum, add weeks for severity from there. AFL manages to stuff up so much that should be simple by trying to be too cute. The fact the player you sling tackle has a harder head than most shouldn't diminish the basic one game for the action.
Its safe to conclude that our season completely rests on Naismith's fitness.
