AFL Round 11

would've been a fantastic goal if zorko had kicked that one, lions deserve this, I knew I should have changed my tip this morning, got what they deserved carlton, yes  they got the short end of the stick in some of the umpiring particularly in the final quarter but they never should have been in this position in the first place to have the lions close enough to them to be able to snatch the win.

F you carlton...there goes my third multi of the year

Waite and Yarran again, both are serial offenders and both are very, very, selfish players who put themselves ahead of the team and it has cost carlton again.

blues haves cats on the rebound next friday night, good luck, max bet on cats for me by the sound of it.

try that again blue have cats....

all over red rover before half time in this one. Richmond havent turned up

How bad are the Tigers?

need a clean out.. they coulda had Hinkley,overlooked him,or tambling over buddy,fiora over pav...just disgraceful scenes

Not the coaches fault, the last thing the tigers need to do is to sack another coach but they have lost speed and number of goals out of last years side when they let so called fringe  players white, mcgunane and nahas go and in particular are missing the speed and bite of white and nahas in and around the forward line. That's  four to five goals a game that they're missing from last year and that has made a significant difference.

Your Man Cashbolt was good tonight Lets
He Cant Play.
All he can do is get in the way and sometimes take a big mark
He wasnt only one missing. GIBBS Bruise free football all night.
Carazzo Goneeeee
McClean 1st half he kicked or handballed to Bris all the time. Mick had to put him forward to stop the turnover
3 Stupid snapd 30 out and never made distance
1 time he dropped the mark, Gartlett was running ontop it and Brok decides to drag it it and Gartlett runs straight into open goal without ball, Mclean is caught, went straight down to Bris and Goal.
Rowe played Brown into form. Brown hasnt beat anybody this year.
Warnock did a few good things, won 100 Hit Outs but Bris loved it.

Bris deserved to win, had a crack and caught Carlton out as they hate it Hard.
Murphy was brilliant till last qtr.

Rockcliff Superstar, if he was at a Melb Clud we would be talking a ot about him.

Im Laying Gaz for Bronlow and backing Josh Kennedy (swans)
1 Point Difference ill lay off

Few people at Gabba telling me he sore

Lloydy

Sorry your mob lost mate contrary to popular belief I don't hate them just their belief that they're entitled to be good, it's a philosophy I don't subscribe to. It's pretty sad really that they turned up like that, you seriously have to wonder what goes through these guys heads, like maclure said about the tigers tonight and it probably applies to the blues as well they just don't want it bad enough, because no doubt there are some talented player at carlton and they are better than that as they can play some good footy at times.

Gazza would have  lead big enough to win a melbourne cup I would think lloydy

Josh Kennedy is Flying
Forwards wont take votes off him
This far our Gaz at a goo price to lay.
Had a huge month on NBA so investing 50% of it.
Rest booked Holiday to watch Grand Final in Thailand
April Cancun and NBA Playoffs

Back to Carlton they now just play Bootsma, Watson, Lucas and others.
If they cant make it CHOP bottom out 5 years.
Trade off big names for kids.
Current list none will win a flag, maybe Menzal

GL with WC i hate another pretender team in North

c'mon suns had a decent crack at the eagles suns double  and a smaller go at the suns/suns, eagles/eagles halftime fulltime double.

suns defenders have to settle a bit three or four flew then for the same ball, crows look a different side thus far today but its only early

They're gone..having my best tipping week of the season this week..reckon ile be 8/8 coming into west coast...weak ****s better not let me down..

glad you think they're gone ted with your record of declarations during the game that means they're home

Iv only been wrong once...

lets see if the crows maintain the rage for the entire game though.

very good mark dixon and goals, for all their effortthe crows are only seven points up with 2min to go in the first term

suns are starting run  now and  have done very well to weather the crows early onslaught and are starting to win the 50/50's and the goal through kolodjashnij from long range narrows the margin to just a point at quarter time.

If the suns are the good young hungry side I think they are their class comes through and they win it from here Ted.

Nah they're due for a loss..crows comfortably in the end


Imo

crows hit back with two early goals to lead by 12 points early in the 2nd term, lets see if the suns can steady again and answer them

oh yeah eddie celebrate like you just won the gf off your own boot you've done next to nothing as per usual

great stuff gazza suns cut the lead to 13 points

great crumb and snap by matera suns close the margin again to 7 points comon boys hit the front before halftime 4min 48 left in the second term

Gazza shouldn't be playing...should of got weeks after last weeks elbow ...

adelaide get something out of nothing but the suns get on top the longer the quarters goes which I think is their superior fitness as the crows have faded at the end of each quarter so far

lost the small halftime full time bet but think I'll win the war the suns will reset at halftime and finish over the top of this mob if they can sort out their forward set up and kick it in properly rather than trying to kick it to gazza when when he's got two or three guys on him. Dixon is on fire and if lynch or day can take a couple of grabs as well they should win for mine. crows by 10 points at halftime

pods was robbed there clearly pushed him in the side but he got the sqaure up just then

walker great kick from the free kick on the boundary after harbrow kicked it out onthe full crows by 15 points early in the 3rd quarter

crows winning all the 50/50's at the moment as walker goals and the crows skip away by 21 points. Walker's been very good today

phenomenal chase by rischitelli on sloane, inspirational stuff crows by 21 points  but the suns are hanging on the knife edge at the moment but are desperately trying to lift, hall who's done  next to nothing today and been a real passenger just managed to conjure something crows by 15 points with 37 seconds left in the 3rd quarter

Gimme them a spray Sando..useless ****s knocked off 2 mins early

great stuff by swallows intercepts the mark and plays on and drills it as the suns close to 9 points missed the 6.5 about the suns earlier in the quarter but had a little more after the suns closed again to 15 points midway through the term at 4.5 and the suns now go into 3/4 time with some real momentum. Crows have been good but haven't quite been able to shake the suns all day, looks it's going to come down to who wants it more now and who can be clean under pressure when it really matters as the suns are right back in this game.

a spray isn't going to help them ted the suns fitness and run may be starting to tell, absolutely phenomenal stuff by rischitelli

walker been the difference today crows by 15 points again very early in the final quarter make that 23 points, let see if the suns have got any resistance left

Fat lady knockin

crows have all the run and are winning the 50/50's,  and king reckons they should slow down they've got the suns on the ropes and he wants them to slow down, no wonder why you were a failure as a coach David King, what a tool.

fark I hate the crows, where the fark was this style of play last week, the commitment, pressure and the hard running was nowhere to be seen last week against vastly inferior opposition

Come on in,let me roll you in flour .

Eddie again carries on like he's singlehandedly won them the  game, what a moron. Lets see how he goes in a big game when it really matters, you can all but guarantee he'll be virtually invisible

what on earth are you on about ted

despite the rundown against him sloane's been very good today.

lloydy was spot on, no doubt that gazza's played sore and is really hurting, the same goes for dangerfield

Got the fat lady warmed right up now.. 7 from 7 in the bag...

Although dockers are getting smashed ..should be further behind

Comfortable in the end.....never in doubt

well it looks like I'll be backing the eagles to salvage something unfortunately, well done crows that was a big win but you have to ask the question in what was a very winnable game where the hell was that effort last week?

Forget about last week, Gold Coast were ripe for the picking,what's their record v Adelaide..come on,it was free money..

How bout those Giants.

Clarko getting nervous in ward 72

Nurses have taken away his wireless and given him a sedative

'They're on here'...hate it when you hear a commentator blurt that out....usually a few times a match.

Is it just me or is Dwayne Russell the most annoying to listen to commentator when he gets excited. Especially when your team is losing.

He is annoying but it's big club in the comm ranks

Jeezuz

Here is a Novelty Bet Josh Kennedy Brownlow into Josh Kennedy Coleman
Should be 100-1
Ill have small Investment

North are good things here.
Gone north by 24.5 for plenty.

Bastanac is a serious footballer

Should be game over by now..bad kicking has kept the wiggles in it..c'mon u useless ****s I want a 9 !

Priiiiiiiiddisss

2 pretenders playing each other will be a draw

Nah WC are gone"......  ****s

Shocking skills and any sort of game plan here from the perth eagles,you'd think supporters would be embarrassed

Nice bet, looks home... 

Thanks BJT.  Nice indeed.

Choose any negative adjective you like to describe the eagles performances tonight pathetic, insipid, abysmal etc,etc, the lack of effort and intensity from the majority of the team was appalling and what's more it was apparent from the outset, North were good but lets face it they were playing witches hats most of the night with the exception of Naitanui, Priddis, Darling, Le Cras, Brown (who never gave Thomas a sniff all night) Mckenzie and Bennell.

Wellingham and Gaff both need a punch in the head to wake them up, Yeo had a rare down game, coxy going through the motions, definitely his last season the way he's covering the ground now or rather not covering it.

Shuey clearly not fit and shouldn't have played and how hill played ahead of Hutchings is anyone's guess, should have known when hill was the sub that we couldn't possibly win

No doubt there will be some sort of response you would hope against the hawks but it's a game they can't possibly win anyway so it will mean nothing.

The game should have been over at quarter time but in reality was definitely over just 5 minutes after halftime.

Can't believe they played like that with their season on the line and it capped a very, very, average weekend  for me on the races and the footy.

Oh well its only money and I will get it back in a fortnights time when they play the suns at subi as will be on the suns for plenty, they wil smash us.

Gaff's effort against Petrie towards the end was nothing short of appalling and he's as soft as butter currently.

I'm an eagles supporter but I put my money on Kangas coz even though they had to fly over here, they would be fresher than the eagles who had to fly over there last week then fly back...plus kangas win every second game

just give the flag to the Swans now imo

Yes Wobmle or Freo then Swans, then GC then GWS.
All Kids will start to not support AFL and play Soccer
To many teams next 12 weeks so many dead rubbers coming up.
Its a Battle for 8th only

Agree Lloydy
As we knew it the landscape is changing, round ball with simply rules and little physical contact is moving in steadily.I acknowledge it's skills and World-Wide recognition but would rather go fishing(which i never have)than go to a game of soccer.

With Pele's mob hosting WC and BF already holding a lazy 12mill it seems AFL might have to 'try' growing the code outside OZ in the future, the only downside (for me)is the Time Zone.
I usually pose the Question,will the day come when AFL goes International on a regular basis?Most of the answers share a common ground,Only when OZ accepts the likes of NFL/MBL on a regular basis.

Battle for 8th?????????

Inconceivable the 8 can change if you go through the draw which I stated a fortnight ago. The 8 is completely set, just a matter of which positions they end up now

Gladd to see the coach is realistic, unlike their previous mentor as that was indeed a major step backwards. 
As for you Sharrod it's all very well talking the talk after the game, lets see some deeds and real effort from you out on the field, if you know that you're being lazy and losing concentration start chasing, smothering and laying a few tackles and that will bring you into the game, its not exactly rocket science.

good god I don't how these bloody typo's keep occurring, that was obviously Glad to see...

How are you celebrating Queens Birthday, Lets Elope?

Its WA day here formerly foundation day but the name had to be changed because god forbid we don't want to offend someone, apparently WA day  is more inclusive what a load of craap and am not celebrating it maybe going over to a friends place and going with them and their kids down  to the local park as its a nice day for doing something like that anyway.

Any tips for the Pinjarra Cup?

it's also Italian National Day ... and Queen's B/day in NZ ... as well as Dragon Boat Festival Day in China

me ... i'll probably have a punt for a change to celebrate them all 

I'll probably get my dragon boat out whilst watching the Royle Family on my portable dvd player and eating pizza to celebrate.

i hope that is not a euphemism joel ... (the chinese take their boat racing very seriously) 

lets...cant make any ecuses for WCE...north was missing 5-6 regular senior players and that's been happening mostly all season so far

excuses...event

even*

The fact that they are rubbish is a reasonable excuse I would have thought.

Megsy how the fark is this making excuses under any circumstances, clearly you didn't bother reading it, North were good but nothing special, we were absolutely pathetic. here a refresher of what I posted.

Looks like Lloydy won't have to worry about Carlton playing bootsma unfortunately for them.

You can't believe some kids today are that bloody dumb, don't get me wrong I don't in any way condone what he did but if he wasn't an afl player he would be in trouble with the girls mum, his pregnant girlfriend (clearly he's a real class act)and their family and maybe suffer a police complaint which would in all likelihood ultimately go nowhere but as an afl player you get splashed all over the local news and newspapers just a stupid, stupid thing to do.

So many kids now have these sort of things flying all around the internet not realising that the long term consequences of social media are that a couple of mistakes will haunt you for a very long time.

I suppose long term it could eventually reach saturation point that so many people have stupid stuff orbiting the net that no one really gives a stuff but until then it's an unbelievably bonehead and inappropriate thing to be doing.

Kids Being Kids, Just wish i had a Mobile Phone at 16

probably deserves to lose his position at Carlton but I hope he gets a go somewhere else - agree with Lloydy, kids being kids

He should of asked Fev for the Get out of Unlimited Get out of Jail Card.
Snap Chat the Photos are meant to Dissapear after 10 Seconds.
I think Kid has been set up.

Compare that to what the Saints Boys did to that school girl.
Went to her School, Flirted with her, slept with her and deserted her. Of Course she tried to fight back but was made look bad and tried to set up Nixon.
What they did was 10 times worse than a couple of Snaps that are meant to vanish.

Once he puts on 10kg he actually might be able to play.
At the moment he is no loss to Carlton, Just another waisted Number 1 Pick

Lloydy clearly he's a disciplinary case unfortunately as he's apparently already caused problems. What the fark are you doing anyway when you have a pregnant girlfriend sending lewd pictures of yourself to an under age girl?
Doesn't sound like he can boast of great personal character.

I don't care how talented or untalented footballer they are if  for  instance jack darling had done the same thing at the eagles I want him at the club, that sort of stuff isn't on.

I'm struggling to get my head around the fact that he has actually had a root.

Agree with Lets and what has reached the public sounds like only the tip of the iceberg.

Agree with Chante more so, staggering

the first time I saw Bootsma play I thought he was orphan annie.

I have read "teenage girl", not "underage girl".  How old was this girl?  How old was she pretending to be?  What was she sending to him?

As for the Saints school girl incident, I think it is ridiculous to suggest that she wasn't a piece of work.
For a start, she says she met them at a nightclub, anything that happened was consensual, and then started siht by suggesting she was pregnant, before then seducing and setting up Nixon, of course after going through players at other clubs as well..
What they did was worse?  A hot girl wanted to fcuk them, and they did.  What is so bad about that?  Are we all virgins here?

He's really getting full value from those union dues he pays each year.
The AFL-PA have been their usual spineless self

That was intended to read obviously as I wouldn't want him at the club, have no idea what happened to the wouldn't.

He must have gone doggy.
Can't expect the poor wife to look at that. ffs.
