That game last night was not a great advertisement for Australian Rules Football.
I hope no international viewers were logging in for the first game.
Absolutely appalling standard of play.
It was like watching concrete cure.

I’ll say it again, Carlton, flaky, all hype no jive. AW

Hey @AW & @supra, next week Collingwood v Carlton, I hate this game, whoever I pick requires me to have a very long hot shower to cleanse my soul, best I can hope for is an all in brawl resulting in massive suspensions!!

GuySmiley. Hi fella.

Yep, battle of the bogans.

After we overrun and beat a fast starting Carlton I’ll have a few ales to cleanse my soul.
Meanwhile, they’ll still be looking for their souls. AW

Hah, that’s the ultimate oxymoron, a Carlton supporter with a soul. Two good games tonight, Hawks edging the Giants and Cats toying with the Lions.

All this chatter about Victorian splatter
Talk about a Queensland team is all that matters.

Yes, indeed the two that matters are definitely Top Hatters at present.
Lions and the Suns are doing well. AW

Solid comeback by the Loins, seeds. I thought they were cooked at half time.

Seems comebacks are the Lions thing this year.

Could this be the year for the Suns to make the 8?

I was going with the “cooked” metaphor but if that’s where your mind goes, so be it.
The Suns v Dees game was pretty grim. One commentator on the radio spilt his cup of tea, and they then spent 20 minutes talking about that as both teams missed easy shots on goal and kicked out of bounds.

My loins need a comeback for sure.
