Hawks

Saints

Giants

Clash of the Titans

Fri, 2017-05-12 14:13

They say The Bont can't be tagged but this season Yeo has been monstering players with shit haircuts all season. Should be a cracking game and after the shock of the final last year JK should get the bib back on and resume his all you can eat buffet against the Doggies for a 5 goal win. I'm planning a snapper fish after the Mrs gets home from work so will have to listen to it tonight.

Could be an ugly scene at Spotless Stadium especially if the Pies continue their goal kicking woes and Richmond should comfortably get over Freo.

My prediction for the round is that Dusty will go 35 & 3 and resume his Brownlow favourite status.

Fri, 2017-05-12 17:29

 The game in china a bit of a novelty this round ..hopefully on a full size oval

 
Weagles have got a head start with Stringer out ... shouldn’t lose at home I’ll back them in , in doing so put the mockers on them win/win
 
Freo it’s with a heavy heart though might tip the Tiges over there .. but most probably will flip flop
 
Can’t see the Pies getting the leg over Gws
 
Hawks to retain some dignity
 
Cats
Saints
Crows
Port
Swans maybe
 
and for the Weagle supporters don’t forget your Free Ride lol .. direct from transperth

Fri, 2017-05-12 18:10

 Ha thats a classic Raff, Tonight could just well be about the whistle....

 

Dogs the hardest at it team in the comp that gets rewarded vs the Eagles with their tough nuts like Darling and Shuey getting their heads ripped off every week Selwood styles...

 

Who will win the free kick count, its hard to tip against the Eagles there!!

 

Bound to be a few upsets, could be the Pies, could be Freo....

 

GC to beat Pt....

 

I'd love to see the Bombers beat the Cats but wont be tipping it...

 

I think Sydney will track along ok from here on in with another win against the pretty handy new look Roos....

 

Rumour has it Simpson has been in contact with Lindsay Thomas, reckons a bit of mongrel combined with a few gifted goals in front of the screaming WC fans could win him another couple of games and is offering him the big bucks...

I haven't watched but I'm not surprised he's been able to find the ball in a winning side being the downhill skiier he is. Being rested for the Western Derby must have reinvigorated him.

Getting tougher to tip. Might have been even harder if the Wobbles got up, and that was a close one for sure.
Decided at the start to only tip Dockers (remember my Second favourite team)with "certain" home games.
Might start rethinking the plan.
Who would have predicted them sitting close to the 8 after 8 rounds after their start - not bloody me!!
