Round 12 - Who will be Owen??

Getting to the time that us tipsters need to get better to chase down Timmo. Well done so far mate.
Tougher round this one. Gambled last round a little, but picked Port Adelaide over the soggy Pies, but WC and GWS let me down. Geelong form has been up and down, and I was sure that GWS was up to it -alas the fat lady thought other wise.
only two(almost) certainties this Rd - Hawks over Bombers, Richmond over Suns. But Suns have some returning from injury and even this could be a harder than you think one.
4 games this week with teams locked together on the ladder, and 8 out of the nine top teams are playing each other.
Im rating Port and still think they may feature well in the finals, but Dogs are bitting oppositions - so Doggies for me
Freo for 2 from 2 (forget the other 10 LOL)
50/50 for NM vs Cats - leave that till later but leaning toward Cats. I think NM has had a good run but against lesser teams
WC to continue flat track bullies, but not convinced.
Carlton the big surprise so far this season (apart from Freo's tumble from grace) so with them vs Saints IMO
Sydney vs GWS - think Sydney but leaving this in the locker still
Melbourne vs Collingwood - what happened to the Pies. Was heading for a season when many (not me) predicted they would make the 8. I don't think so, but again this is a ball toss. With no confidence leaning Melbourne.
Phew - could be anything from 2 correct to 9 (dreaming)
I don't know what others think, but this Rd is bloody hard to pick!!!

 To steal another from the internet...

 

Collingwood have got a team in the women's league, to go with their team in the netball comp.  Planning is underway for a team in the men's AFL comp.

 Paully, I'd think it had a fair bit to do with the fact Freo will be moving into their new home down Cockburn way next year where WCE are still a way off with theirs.

 what he did is the mystery though - unless of course it was actions during play / the game 

edit : hearing it might have involved him being at a night club in the wee hours.

whatever he did I'm glad to see the leadership group take a hard line with him over it

they have to enforce their protocols/boundarys or their is no sense in having them in the first place
