Depends what happens this week, if we were to lose it's hard to see us moving above 17th. We have a very tough draw before the North game in round 21 or whatever it is and could easily be stuck on 2 wins until then. If we win this week we could easily catch West Coast, but I doubt they lose out...

How did that "Disco" Turner flog kick 3 against us Anzac Eve? Every other game he looks like the worst player to ever play the game. He's only ever kicked one other goal.

But Taranto, Hopper and Dow are fulltime mids, Graham and Baker mostly mid as well + we obv have Shai or Dusty in for clearances. Then there's McAuliffe + Prestia as well it's going be hard to get many midfield minutes this season if everyone is fit. Ross to come back as well. He's going to...

For all their dominance, when the game was there to be won at the start of the last quarter, Essendon barely touched the ball. Carlton won like a good team, did enough whenever they had to.

We still went at -10 on Thursday night. We balance it out for everyone.

GC were bloody awful, they have no business making finals. Saints out of range for us now :) only West Coast to worry about for us.

Shocking game, shocking decision to decide it. Good result though, dont let saints get a high draft pick, and GC have no business being anywhere near finals at the moment.

Who would play in an origin game? These Vic v Allies type games surely killed State Of Origin in the first place as they are exhibition games where no one cares. Would just have to be 2 states.

The ball spilt free off Wardlaw, it didnt go straight to Yeo, it was on the ground, then Yeo picks it up whilst hes still on the ground.

He didnt have possession, he was clearly on the ground and picked up the ball. The ump cant pay a ballup after that.

The ball spilled free. Then Yeo picked it up while he was on the ground. Its pretty clear that it cant be a ball up after that.

Freo need players at Boltons age, theyve lost several over the years and have plenty of good young players. But if we were to lose Bolton, Rioli and Baker we would be pushing North territory in a few years when Nank and Vlas and them are done. It would guarantee no finals for atleast 5 years...

Depends what players leave as well. If Baker, Rioli, Graham, Martin all go then next year won't be that easy. It would probably mean the injuries this year helped us, as we shouldn't get worse if all the injured players come back in. We will have also hit the draft hard for the first time in a...

Save Shai for Dustys 300th, rest Nank as well. Who cares about an interstate game.

Is Bolton allowed to play next week. Its 12 days after concussion, or does he need to miss 12 days?

If our injured players were back we would have won the last 2 against good teams. I dont expect us to get players back though, so it may keep getting worse. Play like tonight and lose out wouldnt be a disaster.

Its a tough call next week. Eagles win and pick 2 locked up. North win, and pick 1 well in play. North still host the eagles later in the year as well. If we keep losing an acl a week, we may not win again.

Why would our young blokes be able to lead us? We hadnt started playing young players until this season. It will take another 3-4 years until we can stop relying on the older players.

Getting to be worried about what sort of team we field for the 300th. Lefau done as well now, need to rest some more players for Adelaide just so we guarantee a competetive team for the Hawks game. Hawthorn look as good as any team in the comp right now and will be up for it with the big crowd.

It depends if you really think the team is that good? To get pick 6 and finish 13th, we would have to win probably 9 more games. If we came home 9-2 after the bye, it would suggest we were a top 4 team at full strength, Yze is a genious and have good momentum for next season. If we end the...

But that's the problem, it means when a player gets done for running 17m the AFL can come out and say it's the correct call. The rules need to be written so they can be adjudicated to the rule.

Would think Seth is more the high half forward type. He seems classy, he should be closer to goal and delivering inside 50 when he gets to his best. Seth, MRJ and Mansell should work well together. Then we have Lefau and Bolton, just need to find Lynch's replacement and we would have a modern...

I agree, but now every team will do it and play a tall on him. It means Noah will have to punish them at ground level, he missed 2 sitters that he needed to convert on Saturday. It maybe harsh, but he may only have the next few weeks to save his career. Once Lynch comes back, so will Hopper and...

Of course they will try and put Stewart straight to Cumberland. Every team will put their best intercept player straight to him after last week. Would be crazy not to. Now its unfair that the opposition are putting too good a player on Cumberland lol. The excuses for this guy are ridiculous...

Would be amazing, but JHF would have had to be shocking last season to have them finish below West Coast and get pick 1.

But teams that have a pick near it will be in a better position wont they? Say Brisbane get pick 7, all the teams with 8-13 for example are in a better position to trade up a few spots than us. Last year to get Gold Coasts pick 4, the Dogs traded 10,17 and a future 1st (got some very late picks...

How many of those can we delist anyway? Grimes and Naismith surely retire. Then McIntosh and Pickett as well, who knows with Dusty. Prestia wouldnt want to get injured again. Then Baker and Rioli could leave, Graham as well. Teams dont really draft a huge amount of players these days in an 18...

Blicavs and Clark both got suspended 1 week. Can help a little.

We aren't winning without Bolton. Geelong feed off intercept marks better than most teams, especially on the narrow ground. We arent going to be able to stop it. We will be back to our 5-6 goals for the match and we will lose by 10+ goals the next 2 games. Dusty will have to be rested for the...

Hawks are about to win, West Coast are very good at home. It's possible we can afford to win up to 6 games and get pick 2. But lets wait until we win again before we worry about that.
