Neither can I.

It looks like there's some tough games to predict.

Geelong and St Kilda could go either way, as could Adelaide and Hawthorn.

Will be interesting to see how the Bombers go against W Bulldogs, Hirdy's mob will be hoping to show the NAB cup is an indicator of their true form. Likewise the Eagles, this one is difficult to predict too, I'd only select them as West Coast are the home team, and it won't be easy for North with their injury list.

It would be good to see Richmond upset Carlton on Thursday night, although unlikely, Richmond's record in recent Thursday night games against the Blues has been fairly ordinary from memory.

Meanwhile, I hope my side, Port, is competitive against the reigning premiers :o

3 days to go :D

Fine if you are fortunate enough to be able to afford Foxtel. Not everyone is in that position though.
The TV stations fill their own pockets with the takings of all the extra ads they put in when its on delay so they just look after their business I guess. But it still stinks!!!
