Bad luck tiges. Not bad against a team like the Saints who are one of the best in the comp at the moment.

Stupid Tigers. We would've won if we had scored more points than they did.

I disagree.. I think the tigers would have won if st kilda scored less points than they did.

Actually the score is irrelevent.. the winner is decided on who "want's it more" apparently.. as is my understanding.

St Kilda must have wanted it more.

So therefore Richmond just need to work on wanting it more.

Perhaps they should get a new wanting it more coach?

Ain't that just a bitch. 5-0 leading into the final day this round and I dropped all 3 today, including the Hawks going down. It's a sad, sad day! Oh well, 5-3 is better than 4-4 last week.

FUKN WORD... Great game, my heart was racing, went to the pub to watch it... may have to get foxtell.

Judd is a FREAK... too good, and Embley played awsome, and Sampi is lifting, which is great to see.

the first is your accumulative total of points you were out by when picking the margin of the first game of the round, and the second is this rounds only.

Damn it....

I knew my habit of always picking my team (Essendon) would backfire...... I'd be equal leader if I'd used my head and not my heart. :x


Worked well in 2000 though. :D

Sydney, based on the fact that Carlton are shit and Sydney are the current Premiers.

Doggies and Bombers is more difficult IMO.
