Brisbane? A brave selection my friend. They will find a way to **** it up in the last minute like always. Liking Hawthorn to continue their domination over Sydney as well. Horse has no idea about the Hawks.

Brisbane, so close yet so far. Follow the Dogs with the Hawks and Sydney. Might be 0-10 with Carlton.


Hawthorn v Sydney
GWS v West Coast
Carlton v Essendon
Gold Coast v Melbourne
Port Adelaide v Adelaide - Might beat the 84 points from last year....*shudder*
Western Bulldogs v Brisbane
Fremantle v St.Kilda
North Melbourne v Richmond
Collingwood v Geelong
PAFC. Forever.

******* Collingwood. Watch Wells or Fasalo or some mung who hasn't played us all year tear us a new one. For Fantasy nerds Brodie Grundy looks a lock captaincy option.

Tredders has written an article that appears to be his attempt at a Dermie's "line in the sand" moment. Surely that will lift the current Port players to win.

Why?
Most people have mothers
Not many believe in fairytales.
Plenty of clubs have asked for the GF slot whilst many clubs requested not to play on mother’s day
