    Yeah, for all the promise we showed, the expectation that we'd kick on and go to a higher gear hasn't materialised at all. If anything we've shoved it into reverse...

      Not sure what happened to my post from last night, but I was pretty upset about the loss to the Hawks. We had every opportunity to win that. Patty McCartin missed that sitter and that Hawks goal from that mark not being paid was rubbish.<br><br>
      Crows v Swans was quality. Lions lifted big time and GWS will be top 4 if they can stay healthy. <br><br>
      Never a better sight than Buckley and Hardwick under the pump 🙂

        GWS indeed. Smacked the living daylights out of Port.

            Didn't see the game but 112-109 v the Hawks is close. Indicative that we're in the conversation for finals? Perhaps Pyke can coach.

                Holy shit. Giants slightly up on the Saints at the last break, now just into the last quarter and GWS can do no wrong, drilling three majors Riewoldt's knee looks fucked.<br><br>
                Some fucking weird umpiring too.

                      I watched a bit. It was the best game of the season so far. A week after the Crows played the other game of the season v the Swans <br><br>

                        Rule changes are finding out a few coaches and their lists , including freo . Ross Lyons negative game style is now yesterday's . <br><br>
                        While it has also affected my side , I think the afl deserves a pat on the back , the successful young sides are playing open fast play on type football that is entertaining .

                          Freo now 6 losses to start 2016 after being minor prems last year.

                            <p>Uh... The Giants are up 14.6 over Hawks 8.3, 7 minutes into the Third Quarter. That was after leading 13.6 to 6.3 at halftime.</p>
                            <p> </p>
                            <p>Hawks might be coming back on this one. Will be a fair effort.</p>

                                  <p>It was a matter of time. You only had to see the amount of draft picks GWS got so they've got talented young players and the way the game is being played this year, with the experience they've accumulated it isn't that surprising tbh.</p>

                                    That's a surprising margin though.

                                        Only slightly higher than the last record score from a couple of weeks back?

                                          I watched the 2nd half of that GWS game and their pace and athleticism made the Hawks look ordinary. Great game from them. <br><br>
                                          Another loss to Richmond and Dockers, brings a smile every time. <br><br>
                                          Saints played well, but the Dee's defence was simply atrocious. It was easy pickings at times for the Saints forwards. I lost count of the 2 on 1's that the Saints had in our forward 50.
