It's easy to ignore a problem when the sun is shining. And to note the Hawthorn Cheersquad was half empty at the Richmond game so it's not all sunshine and lollipops at the top of the ladder either it appears.

The AFL are painting over this problem by giving away thousands of free tickets to this weekend's Multicultural round. So the crowds might look good for this week on TV but are these people who get free tickets going to go and pay to attend games next weekend? I very much doubt that most will do this.

No, I didn't, I picked 5 in a row but I thought we'd play Melbourne with a forward-line.

I expected 4 losses and felt the Dogs game would be very difficult given it was played at Docklands. 5 losses was not a great surprise, only the 6th has been.

Should not have lost to Port or Melbourne and Bulldogs was a 50:50.

the rolling maul contested ball movement and tackle pressure game plan is taxing no end. especially to a young list.
then there's the set shot goal kicking. deplorable.

Was at the game, its going to be the only one I catch this year, and had a tremendous time despite the result, best ground in the world to watch footy at.

We were badly lacking options coming off half back, and we really missed Clokes long leads and double leads. Darcy tried hard, but was buffeted effectively by his man all day. Took a few marks on the rare occasion he did get space.
