  Last Week           2/4           Season Total      138/204 The first week of finals really threw the series on its head.   The unstoppable juggernaut of Fremantle this year were stopped…well and truly.   Here in the west this opened some old wounds for Freo supporters as they had seemingly been waiting for this to happen.   There has been this groundswell of excitement building all year, but it has been tempered by the “We know the inevitable” feeling that supporters have feasted on for 30 years.   They need to dare to dream.   Yes, it comes with disappointment but let the emotions flow.   Then Sydney made Brisbane look second-rate.   I thought management came out and said they torpedoed their season.   Well, it seems the best defense against a torpedo is Big Cox.   Perhaps the navy should look into that. ...

Last Week           1/2           Season Total      136/200 Spare a thought for Collingwood supporters.   I mean don’t linger on them or feel sorry for them, they are Collinwood supporters after all.   But if you thought of your clubs equivalent to their weekend, you’d be shattered, wouldn’t you?   They lost their match after a miss after the siren which ended their season, the outright second longest serving player, Steele Sidebottom retired.   Then, they would have woken to the news that the greatest champion in club history is moving to the Gold Coast, without so much as a goodbye and then later that night, their bitter enemy, Carlton won their match sending them past them into the finals proper, having won less regular season games than them and being coached by a former Collingwood champion!   Personally, I can’t think of a worse we...

  Last Week           5/9           Season Total      135/198 The season has run its course and it’s now time for the cream to rise to the top.   But who will that cream be?   A number of upsets last week as some teams didn’t try and others had to try hard.   The AFL should ask themselves, is it better to let clubs do what they want or better that they demand clubs play players and watch the clubs not try, because they don’t want to get injured and bench their star players for large portions of the match and lose by 10+ goals?   It wasn’t a good look in my opinion. The round culminated in an emotional match between Sydney and North Melbourne and as with all things footy, a win cures everything.   The news cycle all but stopped, the pressure is released and suddenly it’s like nothing bad ever happened.   That’s also not a good...

Last Week           6/9           Season Total      130/189 There is a lot that could be said this week what with the goings on at Sydney.   I won’t dive into any of that as I’m pretty sure you can find out more than I know from the many other sources available.   Needless to say, what were they thinking?   I’d say they weren’t thinking and I’ll leave it at that. Last week we had two draws which I’m 100% sure no-one had put that scenario into the ladder predictors!?   Not only that, but Collingwood and Hawthorn drew for the second time in the season with Dylan Moore again holding the fate of the match in his hands after the siren.   People will tell you the chances of that happening are some large number to one, but if you work out the numbers officially, you’d be surprised that it works out to be reasonable commonplace.   The fac...

Last Week           7/9           Season Total      124/180 Here we are at the penultimate round of the season.   If you’re behind in the tipping, you need to take some risks and take them now.   The end of the season fizzles out a bit for the AFL with the top 10 effectively set.   There are a few remote chances of things going awry for some clubs but in most cases the destinies are not fully in their own hands.   Geelong is dominating the headlines for what really amounts to an error in administration.   Journalists are running with it as it’s something they can write about and are trying to make it sound like Geelong are the epitome of everything evil.   Reading some of the articles it sounds like they have been stockpiling Weapons of Mass Destruction, installed tanks containing sharks with “frikkin” laser beams and are putting ...

Last Week           5/9           Season Total      117/171 We have officially entered the pointy end of the season.   You know we have because AFL bosses and everyone else came out and started talking about the prospect of tanking in the final round of the home and away season in favour of a better chance in the finals. For the top 6 teams it shouldn’t be an issue as they will get a week off anyway, such is the way the AFL decided to prioritise the final round of the season over the first week of the finals.   For the Wildcard teams though, it is an interesting debate.   Given the fixtures, it looks increasing like they will be in a position where the last round won’t affect their ladder standing and the temptation to ‘large volume water storage device’ would be high.   The AFL have come out swinging talking about how hard they would come ...
