Swans vs Dons...

Swans by 4 goals

Silly by Jones.

Undisciplined acts from both sides. Very poor taste... definitely not warranted at all. I suspect there will be a few fines dished out for this match at least.

Goddard's had a few whacks already

Edit: So glad I changed my tip at the last minute

tfw North still loses tomorrow with Kennedy and Shuey out.

Can forget finals if we drop this one.

Most frustrating match I've watched

Why’s that?

I’m listening on radio at the moment. It’s exciting audio only, anyway! 😂

Sounds like Ahern is having a fucking huge game.

Watching it on Fox. Much better in 3rd quarter. Low scoring but very contested. I like it, alot, regardless of outcome. Brown being held and double teamed with no consequence as usual.

Cunnington already has 31 at end of 3rd. Ahern not much behind. Walker doing alright in his first game. Made a few errors in first half but to be expected.

Started to run away with it now, but never seen a side so dominant around the ball still manage to be behind. Obviously not the case anymore but North didn't make WCE pay for all the dominance.

[Aaron]

Seems like they've made them pay now. 40 pt win. Very happy against a fantastic side.

Handy for us too

Less so for Melbourne haha.

I wonder where you'd be if you played a bit more outside the G

Reckon there's gonna be a few more shifts before the end of the H&A. Injuries to both WC and Coll makes things interesting. Sydney imo look cooked, GWS are starting to dominate, there's a bunch of teams sitting just outside of the 8 with everybody in the top 8 in danger.

Seemed to cope with your lot pretty well at Etihad


Gooood point. Incredibly tight season. Really should put to bed this discussion that AFL is boring. So much opportunity in this season for so many clubs, incredible stuff.

[Aaron]

WC had an opportunity today to really cement a spot in that top bracket for a home qualifier. 3 games separate 1st and 9th. There's still what, four games? In theory, anybody up to 12th could jump into the top four given the right circumstances. Every game counts until the end.

I mean, at the start of the season, I would've laughed at the prospect of playing the Lions even at the Gabba... but now i'm not as confident. I mean, look at what happened with the Suns. Knocked off the Swans then choked and got slammed by the Blues, of all teams.

Speaking of the Blues, I feel sorry for Cripps and Murphy. They are never going to get to a premiership as players while they're there. I commend them for being the one club loyal players, they're hard to come by these days... but yeah. Still doesn't remove that fact.

^Huge call to say Cripps will never win a flag at Carlton. Things can change quickly.
