Round 12 - Who will be Owen??
Getting to the time that us tipsters need to get better to chase down Timmo. Well done so far mate.
Tougher round this one. Gambled last round a little, but picked Port Adelaide over the soggy Pies, but WC and GWS let me down. Geelong form has been up and down, and I was sure that GWS was up to it -alas the fat lady thought other wise.
only two(almost) certainties this Rd - Hawks over Bombers, Richmond over Suns. But Suns have some returning from injury and even this could be a harder than you think one.
4 games this week with teams locked together on the ladder, and 8 out of the nine top teams are playing each other.
Im rating Port and still think they may feature well in the finals, but Dogs are bitting oppositions - so Doggies for me
Freo for 2 from 2 (forget the other 10 LOL)
50/50 for NM vs Cats - leave that till later but leaning toward Cats. I think NM has had a good run but against lesser teams
WC to continue flat track bullies, but not convinced.
Carlton the big surprise so far this season (apart from Freo's tumble from grace) so with them vs Saints IMO
Sydney vs GWS - think Sydney but leaving this in the locker still
Melbourne vs Collingwood - what happened to the Pies. Was heading for a season when many (not me) predicted they would make the 8. I don't think so, but again this is a ball toss. With no confidence leaning Melbourne.
Phew - could be anything from 2 correct to 9 (dreaming)
I don't know what others think, but this Rd is bloody hard to pick!!!

I'm here Randall :)
Piss poor last quarter from the Eagles last night. So much to play for but no fight at all unfortunately. Have to give credit to the Crows for the pressure they applied too!
Let's see how the Eagles respond. Some of the ongoing non-performers should be relegated and made to fight for a spot in the team as others have mentioned.

Pretty poor performance in that last Q and a half.
Top 8 dusted as far as I am concerned. Might just make up the numbers for the finals.
Hope I am wrong, but not much showing if we are to be pre-(I mean) contenders.

Am I the only one?
Looking at the draw IMO North Melbourne might even struggle to finish in the 8.
They have a few hard games closing off the season.
Hawks x 2, Adelaide and WCE (both away - yes might beat WC), Port (rising IMO), Collingwood and Saints (should win both),Bullies, Sydney and GWS to finish. Could loose potentially 7 out of 9, leaving them 12/10. Either way might battle to reach top 4.
Tough run home.

in a difficult round. As Crasny mentioned in an earlier post out of the 9 matches only 2 were relatively easy pics which left 7 50/50 games. Anyone who scored more than 5 I think can be well pleased that the tipping gods were on their side.
