    If we don't beat the Dogs then it will be very difficult to make top 4. If we do beat them, looking at the draw home for the teams above us, we're still going to have to win probably all of the last 6 and hope for a few upsets like tonight with the Saints beating the Lions.

    This team can do it for sure, the lid will be off if we can beat the Dogs!
    Yeah, having just checked, the run home of the two teams within apparent striking distance - Brisbane and Port - is pretty soft in both cases.

      It has been a very boring round or footy so far.

        Apart from the saints, it’s been yawnful. Turned off after 1 qtr on Friday.

            Long way to go but the Suns are doing us a favour - so far!

                I did enjoy the Suns beating the Giants.

                    Looks like the dynasty is over.

                      Impressive last quarter from any team when you double the score you put on the scoreboard in the first three quarters ????

                        Must admit I enjoyed watching the Giants choke against the Suns. Hopefully that really knocks the wind out of the sails and we can take advantage next week in Ballarat/Geelong/Marvel/Princes Park, wherever the hell our game ends up being played at....

                            Amazing round. We beat the Dogs, Suns beat the Giants, St Kilda beat the Lions and the Pies finish off the Richmond era. It's all falling into place (except the Lions bit).

                              We need Richmond to find form and beat the Lions next week.
                              'Delicious' is a fun word to say

                                He certainly looked stunned when hit, but apparently passed the concussion test.

                                Yes.
