Sheesh the top 4-5 teams are so far ahead of the rest it ain't funny. Not great for the competition to have all these massive blowouts every week  :-\.

Geelong won by 150 points ..... 29.14-188 to GC's 6.2-38 .... so that's a combined winning margin of 336 pts in two weeks  :o.

and Carlton thumped Melbourne by 76 pts despite having only 6 more scoring shots and 5 more inside 50s ...... 21.8-134 to 7.16-58.

Collingwood thumping Poort.

Yep another 100+ point flogging. Ch 10 will be happy they are missing out on the nailbiter at Etihad :wallywink.

The Swannies will be kicking themselves if they lose this. 2.8 in the last qtr.

As Blighty said today commentating the Carlton - Melb game. The way rotations work these days once a midfield gets on top its hard to change things up to win it back.

Bloody bombers won by a point. 2.9 the Swannies kicked. They should've won but as they say bad kicking is bad footy.

Strauss broke his leg from the looks of the replay. Looked pretty bad(up there with Nathan Browns probably not as bad looking actually)
I just saw a replay of it on youtube  :-X. A strange one too as it looks like the leg snaps under his own body weight as he lands. Different from Browny's where Whelan landed across his standing leg. Strauss' was still as graphic though  :-X. Hopefully he makes a full recovery and doesn't have the complications that Browny and Matt Maguire had.

True. The sub rule also contributes as it favours the more mature top sides with their superior depth and fitness while young sides with younger bodies at this time of year are tiring.

If I was the demons rehab team I'd be calling freo's. Barlow has came back and looked pretty good besides for lack of fitness.  Next year will probably be the big test.

There are to many clubs in the AFL competition and it gets worse with West Sydney Giants or whatever there called. Not enough talent to go around and to many massive thrashings. Its bad for the competition.

Crows won and jump ahead of us on the ladder. Brisbane can now afford to beat their local rivals and still keep hold of their priority pick.

I see Port has made 8 changes this week  :o. As stable onfield as off-field it seems at Alberton.
