    It's can be fun to read the Bulldogs bigfooty page after they lose. There's appears to be a widespread and visceral hatred of Beveridge.

      Bevo will be gone soon and good riddance. Fancy having the Bont, Libba and Treloar in the middle, and JUH, Darcy and Naughton down front, and not being able to make something of it. Mind you, the rest of the list is a bit average.

      I will say the way he was hauling in marks last night, my view that Darcy will soon be the scariest proposition in the game isn’t far off.
      'Delicious' is a fun word to say

        Giants throwing away the game against the Saints.....1 pt the diff, seconds left.

        Giants hang on by a point....after Saints kicked the last 6 goals. Bloody hell!

          It was all happening in that game. A few injury concerns for GWS now. The Taylor collision was horrible, best wishes to him for recovery.

            I just saw the free kick count in the Giants/Saints game.....20 to 9 in favour of the Victorian team.

            I'll admit I did not see the game but this league continues to be very suss.

              How does a team manage to only give away only 9 free kicks in an entire game? You wouldn't think it would be possible with
              today's ultra contested footy, but hey it is....

                Incredible win by Adelaide; cracking game of football.

                  Or only 8 free kicks in a Grand Final. I know I should "let it go." But I can't.

                    I didn't see any of the game, but I'm pleased that Carlton lost. The growing myth of plucky Carlton always winning the close ones, was a bit of AFL media hype that was really starting to bug me.

                      It really was a cracker! The disappointment of seeing Jordan Dawson on the winning side is well and truly offset by the fact they beat Carlton! And I've always liked Matthew Nicks!

                        At the moment Ben King has kicked 4.4 and Hawthorn has kicked 4.4. I hope Ben King beats them.

                          Serong missed a shot that would have won Freo the game. Dyl Stephens wouldn’t have missed it!

                            Came so close to having NO undefeated teams yesterday, which would've evened up ladder at the top.

                            WC are a chance to break their duck today against a injury ravaged Richmond, who have been defiantly plucky nevertheless. May've won few more games less the injuries to their big stars.

                            Next week's round is a beauty with all games being.so evenly matched. Richmond & Melbourne last of the bye teams, so the ladder will finally be on par.

                              Edit: Oh i overlooked Geelong being undefeated as they ate a certainly agsinst North at home today. But they take on Brisbane away next week.

                                It looks like Clarkson's North Melbourne will be taking on Mitchell's Hawthorn next week, with both teams sitting at 0/5. I'm hoping for a draw.
