Can't forget about AFL either being a huge Geelong fan...watched the game on Saturday (as I recorded the V8s) and they played good enough to win the game but that is it. Big Game on Saturday...the Cats v the Crows...may the best team win!  |

Should be a close one between Crows Geelong, They have a habit of being close at AAMI Stadium.
Noticed Selwood is back for Geelong, Crows have lost McKernan suspended for one week
Cant wait Crows by 9

That is a big in for Geelong. Selwood is almost two players for us...being at AAMI gives you blokes the favourites tag but I think Geelong will get it by 15 points.

You never know a certain crows fan of a former site may sign up...that would certainly spice things up  Yeah Sanderson being the coach will have inside knowledge into the Cats 'tricks of the trade' - hopefully Scott has changed it up a bit since Sanderson has left... |

I actually think Scott has a point in backing Clarkson's view that the eagles are bordering on ruining the reputation of the sport if some of their players are going to intentionally buckle at the knees to draw a high tackle. IMO the rule is already tough enough on the defender with anything above the chest considered a high tackle when we consider the rules relating to high tackles for the NRL (which is getting worse for this btw)

Its not a good pratice if they are doing it on purpose, Kerr from the Eagles was on the news stating they do not train to do it, But the stats would suggest they know what they are doing and using it to get free kicks
Hopefully with the mefia coverage of it, The umpires will pay a bit closer attention to it, Before all the teams start doing it.

What about this weekend? Try to pick a winner out of this one - potential wooden spooner v potential wooden spooner; Suns v Giants. Ablett might be back and Hunt may even be tagged for the game...and I have certainly been impressed by him this year. He actually looks like he is going into contests looking for the ball and running hard to find open space to take uncontested marks...give Folau one or two years and he will be at the same level as Hunt. www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sport/afl/the-sun-also-rises/story-e6frexwr-1226351523900 |

Well what can I say? It wasn't as if I didn't see it coming with how well the Crows are playing atm...I mean they beat Sydney at Sydney, so you know that they have quite the formidable squad this year. Geelong needs to bring that same intensity they take to Hawthorn and Collingwood games to every game and given that they are playing the pies on Friday, expect a lot of improvement. Here's hoping  |

Not bad though HDT...I reckon they are in good shape...rather be slightly behind than slighty in front especially how well the cats sailed home last year in GF. Go the cats!!
