2008 Non-Richmond games

[mightytiges]

It's going to be a long year for 7 sides from the Saints down. Two different leagues in one. Just Port and North fighting for that last spot in the top 8.

Blues making a late charge - 11 points down midway through the last

Blues 5 poiints in front 2.13 mins to go

[Moi]

Blues win

Geez that's a massive choke by Port. Hold a team to just 3 goals to 3/4 time and then cough up 7 goals to nil in the last in the wet . Oh well that should the end of Port. I don't see the Blues making it either despite their win. At least they can't get the priority pick for once lol.

Might be Carlton and North the way it is panning out. Port is starting to slip away and the fortress that is AAMI stadium is beginning to slowly crumble. Two shattering losses in the wet this year after they gave up a similar lead in the wet against Bris Vegas in Round 4. Expect some fireworks from Chocco post game perhaps something along the lines of Port being the best 4-7 side in the history of football. Fev has the last laugh kicking a goal after the siren to stretch the Cheats win to 12 points.

On the ladder now the Blues are right in it but I still think the gap between the current top 8 and the rest is huge. A bit like 2006? when we finished just below the 8th placed Doggies. The Blues also have 6 of the top 8 sides in the last 7 rounds. They may finish 9th - what a shame lol.

The Dees are staying with the Pies at the moment btw. If they keep it up they'll go in as favourites against us.

[Hellenic Tiger]

Everybody should go in as favourites against us after Saturday's effort and rightly so.
TANK TANK TANK TANK.
Go the Dees.

North has the wobbles. Flogged by 9 goals by Freo  .

Edit: Hamish McIntosh has done his PCL so he's gone for 6 weeks too. A massive loss for the Roos.

The doggies though are looking the real deal. Will their gamestyle stand up in finals is the only question.

[mightytiges]

Bloody Roos. Sheesh Harvey and Shannon Grant have the wood over Hawthorn. Not the result we wanted as far as finals goes. Let's hope they drop one they shouldn't along the way like last week against Freo.

[Hellenic Tiger]

Geez the Cats were awesome tonight. The type of result that could steel them and make them invincible much in the same way it hapenned last year with the thrashing they dished out to us first up. Sure the opposition was awful but to win by 135 points interstate and against a side that had at least 12 or more premiership players from 2 years ago is just phenomenal. Either the Cats were that scary or the Eagles are on the Tank and want to get their percentage on par with the Dees for when they meet later in the year to stake a claim for last place. Nevertheless big big win for the Cats who are now 1 win and % clear of the Hawks who have gone off the boil slightly. Scary thing is the Cats can still improve based on this years evidence. Right now should be premiership favourites on their own.

Hopefully Essendon win tomorrow and we remain 1 game outside the eight and only 2%, as a Carlscumtankcheatstealandlie win leaves 1.5 games out and even a victory against the Filth next week leaves us out of that elusive 8th place.

[mightytiges]

The Bombers are all over the Blues so far - 35 points up . 

The Dees are also giving the Swans are run for their money after a bad start. Perhaps Melbourne aren't the % easybeats they once were and our win wasn't as meaningless as some portrayed despite not playing well.

ps. Yep HT74. Geelong were awesome and are starting to step it up after cruising through the first half of the year.

[tigersalive]

Go Dons! 

[mightytiges]

Pies and Blues lose after a Tigers win the day before. It's been a good weekend    .

Rocca's done a hammy too so the Pies are looking shakey. If we win next week we'll only be half a game behind them.
