BookMan Posted May 31, 2015 Author Share Posted May 31, 2015 (edited) I was lucky. Picked Richmond and then changed to Essendon. I then returned to Richmond. I do not know why, GWS was a big disapointment. I thought that they would have had a big chance. Gazman is the current leader of the round on margin. Will27 also with 5/6 is the new leader overall. Sorry Bookman for your bad news Nice one Rip. I feel like that every week. Really, I thought Essendon would be too good for Richmond. Luckily for Chimpy, Collingwood and St Kilda won, so he is saved from sleeping in the laundry this week. Edited May 31, 2015 by BookMan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Ron19 Posted May 31, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted May 31, 2015 (edited) Sorry to be late getting this up but I've just had an accident while clearing some water from a downpour that partially flooded the floor tiles on our ground floor. Silly bugger slipped, fell over backwards and finished up with blood everywhere from a split on the back of my skull.Tickles a bit . Looks like my brother Gazman is making a late run for the lead.

Round 9.JPG Do your round 10 tips now, while you are still dizzy. haha. Or maybe with concussion you cannot play next week on cautionary medical grounds. Your score, Home games ... max 5. Or is it away games? anyway max 5. Really, Trust you will be ok. Too tough to kill with a knock to the head.

West Coast looking good this year...The last month, anyway Young Jeremy McGovern is working well down back... I've been staggered at the improvement. Although he didn't play today, Yeo has been huge for us. I reckon by winning today, we will make the eight. If we get can get over North next week, I might even dream of top 4. McGovern has been great from day 1. We will be a lot better if we get Darling back soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron19 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 I like the reasoning behind this. UMPIRING chief Wayne Campbell then joined the coaches to discuss a slight rule change. The AFL announced that if a player drives his head into the tackler, that will now be counted as their prior opportunity and won’t be ruled as play-on. Subsequently, the umpire will pay holding the ball if it occurs, so long as the tackler is not reckless in the first place. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrantSmith Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Interesting week of games approaching? Early thoughts anyone? Freo v Richmond Carl v Adelaide Gold Coast v Syd Ess v Geelong Port v Western B GWS v Brissie North V West Coast ST Kilda v hawks Melb V Collingwood Freo's due to drop a couple but I don't think the Tiges will have the tail to out run Freo... Essendon are a bit of a basket case at the moment after showing promise, Geelong will be looking to step up after going down to West Coast. My early pick is Geelong... Port have started their annual choke... Now that Cornes is gone can they get over the detachment syndrome they've been suffering and start playing footy... Granted they really haven't recovered from the flogging they got from the Bondi Billionaires but c'mon ladies... North v West Coast... Only a fitty-fitty due to them playing in Tasmania... Let's see if Majak Daw gets a call up, if so I know where my tip's going to be placed... Dees & Collingwood... I'm backing the Dees here early on... Might change my mind as the week gets on... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks as if Barry Mitchell, Diesel and Mrs Diesel saved his life. A real emotional show. There wasn't a dry eye at my place. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wkx0k2lYChs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
