Watched the Cats/Saints game. I know it was the first round but it was pretty pedestrian.Comment

in mouth injuries have finally caught up with him.Comment

I also watched most of the game and I thought the standard was very average as it was played in perfect conditions. I automatically thought how could either of these sides match the Swans?? But it was the first round.Comment

Nice to see Melbourne gave the Dogs a nice old towelling.Comment

Strangely, I was just thinking of doing that. Are they continuing on the general theme of late last season and calling for Beveridge to be sacked? Personally, I suspect he'll be the first to go.Comment

I actually find these moves quite reminiscent of the Daicos brothers, when they were being tackled on Friday night.

Much as I love the grand old lady, anz stadium, the precinct around could do a lot better for big events. Giants v north at late afternoon. Then pink in the evening. Parking sold out by pink supporters. Event buses only running for pink timeframe, kind of kills it for AFL fans.
Even some basic stuff like a few event buses at 3pm, or safe storage sheds for pushbikes. Or heaven forbid, a train station that's used by more than one line.Comment

Starting to look like last year's grand finalists will be collectively 0-4 at the end of the round. Possibly not a huge concern for them at this stage, but it should ensure that their match in two weeks time will be something of a cage fight.Comment

Don't the special buses they have at the SCG only go to Central. There is a train station at Olympic Park. Who goes to
the footy on a pushbike? Not really sure GWS v North is what is considered a major event like 60,000 people watching
another grand old lady, Pink. I think you need to embrace the new name Accor too. Mega French hotel chain conglomerates
have done so much for sport, we should all get behind them.Comment

We got one vote as the likely runner up, and GWS and Carlton got 4 runner-up votes each.Comment

The lowest position I've seen tipped for us was by journalist, Jonathan Horn, who reckoned we'd finish 13th. I think he's also a Collingwood supporter, so I suspect a few people might be reminding him of that prediction, in the comments section of his regular Monday column.Comment
