Oh David, you really missed your calling!

The guy was out cold instantly, must have been trying to hit the ball over the water tower if he claims he was aiming for that!

OK peoples, keen to know who you are tipping for these last games, I am on top by 1 tip and under severe pressure from my boss.

I had Swans / Suns / Pies

I am considering changing to Hawks (some good ins and its at the G), Lions (Suns on the nose at the moment and many injuries, lions will be fired up) and Pies (only just, but on paper the Crows are better due to our injuries).

Thoughts and insight appreciated.
Buon Giorno

It looked a lot like the incident Jason Cloke got suspended for, that's all I'm saying. Not sure what he was thinking, but deliberately whacking Cox in the face in front of the umpire seems one of the less likely options.

Pies, just. Toss a coin for Hawks and Swans, perhaps Hawthorn due to the home ground advantage. And Gold Coast.

Lions have got this. Suns won't make the finals now. The last two spots will be fought out between Essendon, Collingwood and Adelaide.
Well done boys!

50 points at half time! I don't think anyone saw that coming. Great result for us, though I can't help but wish that we'd played the Gold Coast now as opposed to three weeks ago.
