Crikey what happened? We just did not turn up to play Bundy, I think we just expected to win and go in to the bye for a rest, Also it was the worst skills I have seen from a Crow's side in a very very long time, Could not hit a target to save ourselves, Credit to Melbourne as well they played and tackled with real purpose. Also we lost 2 players by halfway through the second quarter, But that is still no excuse because before those players went off we were getting killed. Not looking forward to our next game against Collingwood, We could get smacked pretty bad, The only positive is Tex has played 2 good games in the reserves and looks likely to return. Also watched the second half of your game against Richmond today and was surprised at how well they took it up to the Cat's, At least you got the 4 point's that's what matters at this time of the year though.

Small scoring, scrappy affairs are Roos forte.

Yeah exactly right. I couldn't stay awake (thanks to a big night out before ) but I saw the score and the cats were like winning by 7 goals so I thought it would be a bit of a canter - woke up and Richmond were less than 2 goals behind with a good part of the 4th quarter to go - still pretty confident that the cats would walk away with it.

Lions did better than what I expected today - real scrappy win for Essendon. Chappy looks to be in trouble too.

Yes Brisbane did hang in there for most of the game, I didn't see any of the game, The Bombers don't appear to be playing very well at all at the moment, Maybe that helped Brisbane stay close? Not sure why Essendon have dropped off so far lately, Maybe they are trying to have there form slump early in the year rather than later? How was Weagles today kicking 30.8! They have been one of the worst kicking for goal sides of the year, Finally for them it all came together today, All be it against GWS.

Damn noisy crows' fans I read that Edwiener from Collingwood is having yet another dummy spit over it as well, Which of course makes it even sweeter. To be very honest here and take my Crows glasses off for a moment, I think it was kicked after the siren, In saying that though, The ways the rules are written the correct decision was made. I am positive now that the great Edwiener is up in arms it will get changed by next week. Anyhow how good was the win! Get beaten by Melbourne last week then beat the Pies this week, Its enough to drive a man to drink...... More Oh and the big Texan is back, If he had have been able to turn one of his 4 points in to a goal, There would be a fair chance the joint would have collapsed, Also keep an eye on our new small forward named Charlie Cameron, Going to be a gun I hope.

Cats Vs Freo tonight, Should be a good game, I am tipping Geelong to win this one, But Freo have had Geelongs measure lately, Also I don't think Freo are in the best form at the moment.

Just the typical raw end of the stick umpiring rant - **** they got the calls tonight. Also what the hell was with their runner always being in Geelong's way when we were on the attack? Looked like it was a planned tactic from the Fremantle coaching staff to stifle Geelong

Looked like it was a planned tactic from the Fremantle coaching staff to stifle Geelong Yeah that runner thing will get talked about this week, As will Steve J dragging Crowley across the Geelong interchange line and getting a Geelong free kick, I laughed lots about that, Steve J is a clever bugger, (Also a bit agro). I forgot it was Pavs 300th and may have helped get Freo up and about, Freo had about a 30 point lead at quarter time and it was the same at the end, So I would say Geelong just was not switched on and Freo was, Geelong will be there in September just a blip on the radar I would have thought.

I don't know whether there was some history between Crowley and Stevie J or Stevie J wasn't having his usual game where he was on track for 30 possessions or Stevie J was just frustrated because he was playing such a close tag but there were some very line ball things Stevie J did last night including the grabbing of Crowley towards the interchange bench and angling his head to effect a headbutt. Pav's 300 and he had a good game. You could nearly say that Harry Taylor having an off night was the difference in the game. He failed to stop Pav and failed to kick a couple going forward. Also think that Bartel is a bit to blame missing a few easy goals and marks at the start and putting us on the back foot. No easy game next week either versus the kangaroos.

I have no idea what the coach can do with Stevie, He has always been a player that works on emotion, If they try and take that away it may effect his normal play, Let him play the way he play's IMO. Also going over for the game at the MCG on Sunday against Carlton, First time at the "G" have been to Etihad a few times and enjoyed it so hope this is the same or better.

Bit closer than I would have liked. Good move from Scott to push Bartel and Kelly into the midfield while utilising Selwood up front.

I thought the Cats had that game covered after the first quarter, It was a good come back by the North Melbourne to get it to with in 15 late in the last, But they had spent to much to get back that close. Yep good move by the coach to put Bartel and Kelly in the midfield, That just proves how much depth Geelong have, Imagine if Stevie J was there? Tommy Hawkins is looking very farking dangerous this year, He is great to watch and can rip teams apart, One mark he took in the last that was not paid was really annoying, Absolute beast.
