DUTCHY

I reckon you blokes are a chance at Cat Park this week. The Catters are bringing back three who might be short of a gallop and you blokes are in top form with much more to play for than us. It could be a Round 21 upset like last season as your mob cleaned us up at Cat Park last year.

Any interest on the 6.00 on offer? What are your thoughts of the match. Really looking forward to the game.

Hope your right REB but I reckon we will get done, Im actually backing Geelong -28.5 as part of my DOOM system, Roos coming off 2 weeks on concrete wont help at all....personally I hope I lose my cash and we put up a good fight but I feel otherwise, being on media street this week wont help us either...

FWIW, I sit 6 behind the leader in our footy tips.

But I can't see much ground being made this week.

I think Brisbane fans would rather that than losing the lead like they have quite a lot this year.

Has anybody seen HOF

3 Huge games today

We start at Geelong, with Geelong and the Kangaroos. Geelong have sewen up top spot and the Kangaroos fighting for a top four spot should be an interesting game.

Then we are at the Dome for St Kilda and Adelaide. A very intering game comming up here with the Saints fighting for a finals spot and the Crows fighting for a top four spot. It is also Robert Harvey Testemoinal match.

Then we go over to Subi for the Clash between the Eagles and the Hawks Can Buddy kick his 100gth goal today?

if the saints win today the top 8 is set up

at 1/4 time it was the crows by HOW FAR

at 1/2 TIME it was the saints by HOW FAR and thats how it ended

the crows were very ordinary after 1/4 time, could not hit a target. they wont be any danger in september
