You said it yourself matt one win dont make a season its same with losses! one loss dont make a season!

Yes i will admit ugly game by the tiges today, we were never really in it! But we wont dwell on it and we shall make it 6-6 next week against the giants! Its not over matt! still plenty of winable games to come this season for the tiges!

Remember last week you said tigers would lose! GOOD CALL then matt! now we are even!!

Yes tremell we played bad, it just was not our game today, just like it was not hawthorns game when we beat them by 60 points! Everyone has bad days, but keepin my head up, we can still make finals, still plenty more wins to come!
Cotchin played well by the way, Performs well even when we lose!

btw i watch every game on smart replay on afl.com aswell tremell!

Yeah possibly plenty more wins to come, they just better not turn up like they did today too often! Only one more unexpected loss and you are probably cooked.

Anyway have your first ball for showing your face after that loss haha bet you were dreading coming on lol!

Curious as to who people would have as the AA ruck this year. I think Maric thus far given Sandilands injuries and Cox spending a lot of time forward. Also other top liners like Mumford & McEvoy have been injured. I've heard a few people throw up Jacobs who has also been good but I honk Maric has him covered thus far. Thoughts?

Probably Maric, with Cox as backup.

Big call for the Crows to finish on top, even with the favourable draw.

I think the Pies will end up on top and beat Hawthorn in the GF.

The Brownlow will be interesting. Pendlebury was my tip at the start of the season and was looking good until the injury... it probably depends on how many games he misses. Ablett will surely poll well (even if tremell adamantly disagrees with me), will be interesting to see how many 3's he gets in games where they've gotten smashed (and there's been plenty).

I'll go with Sidebottom for Norm Smith and I'll stick with my pre-season prediction of Buddy for the Coleman.

I actually picked the Gold Coast to win the wooden spoon at the start of the sseason (with GWS 17th), but I think it will end up coming down to the second GWS v Gold Coast game, so hard to pick (it's played on the Gold Coast, if that helps).

I agree, I think the spoon will come down to that game. I think GWS will get over the line there, but I don't think either time will beat anyone else this year.

It's a big call re: the Crows, but if you look through our draw - there are only two games there I can see that we might not start favourites in - Geelong at Cat Park and the Eagles here in Adelaide. Assuming we lose both, and win the rest (yes, big assumption, but just going on current form), that gives us 18-4. We play Melbourne, Gold Coast, GWS and Port, so you'd think our percentage will stay decent. So, I reckon it's a pretty good thing that we'll get at least top 2. I think we'll lose in the prelim this year, though.

Brownlow - I agree, the Pendles injury has thrown it open. Ablett will get a lot of 2s, I suspect, but I don't know if it'll be enough. Scott Thompson is my smokey because he's had probably 5-6 BOGs so far for us this year, and we've won 9 out of 11. Last year he polled well when we sucked, so I think he could poll very well indeed this year.
