One thing I always really like about Indigenous Round, is the often excellent jersey designs.
Every club's amazing Indigenous jumper: Which is best? Vote now
Adelaide's is always striking. I do like the blue pools in our new design. The variations on the sash in Richmond's jersey always seem to work well. And with Melbourne, or Narrm as they are called for the next two weeks, I do like the short sleeve version, but the long sleeve version looks a bit too much like panel van art to me. But I'm sure that others will have their own preferences.
As for the football, I'm feeling quietly confident about our clash tonight with Carlton. But if my confidence is misguided, then I might be paying more attention to the election, than the other games over the weekend.
Of the other games, the first is the Suns v the Bulldogs. I suspect many of us will be going for the Suns. And if they do win, people will be starting to talk about them as a genuine finals threat, which didn't seem likely when they lost Ben King for the season.
Next up is the Cats hosting the Power. I tend to view the Power as much more of a threat to us than the Cats, so a Cats win to stall the Power surge would be handy.
The Demons are again at $1.01, this time against the Kangaroos. Seems about right.
The next match is the Crows and the Saints. On the more of a threat basis: go the Crows.
The other Saturday night fixture is the Dreamtime at the G clash between the Tigers and the Bombers. Here, the prematch entertainment might actually be better than the match. Then again, the Bombers could be fired up after the criticism they copped during the week.
The first match on Sunday, should be a bit like a raft to a drowning man; with the drowning man being the Giants season and the raft being the Eagles. Unfortunately, for the Giants, they travel to Brisbane next week. So, back in the water for them.
And in the final two games of the round the Lions and the Dockers, should continue the slide down the table of the Hawks and the Magpies.
