Do you think your team is carrying good form
into the finals Riff Raff? That should be the main concern - not hanging onto top spot?

Certainly not peaking too early that’s for sure Gadsy .. current form is unremarkable .

Freo not much to play for today but on the other hand were a little disappointing. Nat Fyfe is gone by the looks of it but you never know.
The AFL is corrupte and with millions on Fyfey some of the hierarchy may have had a bit on him LOL
My tip is all will get off this week as a compromise including arse wipe hodge

jeez you gotta love the footy don't you ,
best weekend of footy so far this year I reckon , and it will only get better coming into the finals
port surprised the hawks , nice !
then the frockers run out of puff to the roos and fyfye gets frustrated again for the third time out , possibly no brownlow lol
at domain today weather was great and the footy was choice !!! , west coast powered home in the last to thump the doggies !!!!
that last quarter is how top teams should play out games ....
west coast are hunting full on , no doubt about it

No backline... no
No backline... no worries. Our lack of height is going to be tested this week though against Tex and JJ so we need to turn it into a shoot out.
We are going to be deadly next year when Emac and Brown come back and we can play Yeo as a full time mid, release Sheppard more to create run off half back and play McLovin as a swingman

Emac is our current B&F and
Emac is our current B&F and an instant in and Brown has probably been pushed back in the pack now and would have to earn his spot. We got found out against Adelaide's tall timber at the start of the last game and the tall forward lines are going to stretch us. It won't be a simple player in, player out but a shuffling of positions. Emac takes the best forward and Schofield moves to the second best and Sheppherd moves onto someone who isn't a foot taller than him with Yeo moving into the midfield and drifitng forward and with Duggan to come back means that Mark Hutchings comes out of the side and Lecca plays up forward more and McGinnity comes out.
The big question will be where and who for do we play Chris Yarran/Lewis Jetta?

Due to the Hawks loss and all be it the Weagles and Dockers win one at least of the remaining games it’s a lock for top 2 for the double chance .. just a matter what the preference is 1st or 2nd .

Yep but you have to admit, there is a difference between resting players & "forfeiting" a game.
A game can still be one by resting key players if you have good depth to your group.
I don't think Ross the Toss will throw the game at the risk of facing Hawthorne in the first final.
What are your thoughts ???

100% agree.
Problem with his attack on the ball is he had his shoulder and elow locked in for a bump well before touching the player.. eventho that was not the outcome in the end, it was his intention to start with.
Just because he is brownlow favourite, the MRP cannot look the other way on this.

Phew, tough one for Fyfe.
Phew, tough one for Fyfe. Both going low for the ball. His arm was not up but bumped past the ball?? This could go either way. Ill back he gets off.
But how well did the eagles play. I didnt pick them in the top 8 so VERY happy where they are now. Obviously still would love a Flag which anyone at the start of the year would have laughed at, but I think this spells the start of an era of Eagles dominance for the next few years. So many good players coming back from injuries etc. No very old players. Many with 100 games under the belt and some young talent to boot.
Just hope its not a Port year for us next, as my flag favourites at the start of the year has fallen off the pace - apart from beating the Hawks on Friday!!!

It has to tick all three
It has to tick all three boxes.
Careless? Yes
High? Yes
That leaves forcful? No. Player got sraight up and took his kick and played out the game.
The correct decision was a free kick for high contact. That was paid. Correct decision.
He'll get off altogether.

Dosent have to be forceful
a grading of low iow impact - if its determined to be carelss and high, will get him a $1000 fine with a plea. That then rules him out of brownlow. If it's graded medium impact 1 week or &1000 fine with a plea. Doubt he will get of all together!
