Four goals in a row to start the final term for the Roos, back within 9 points, only 6 minutes in. Plenty of time for either time to win... Crows fading badly.

edit: amazing game of football. Tough 10 minutes or so, then Goodwin and Nathan Thompson traded goals. McGregor just stood tall and took a big mark, and passed it Ricciuto who's lining up to make it 15 points with the clock going into time on. Adelaide should hold on now.

Kicks it... 25 touches and 3 goals for Ricciuto, close to BoG as Edwards and Harvey faded after half time.

Perfect round to me!!! 8

 

[Jono]

Damn it, Tigers came back from 8 goals down against Port to hit the lead at 3 qtr time, but couldn't hold on for the win! First time in like 3 months that we are out of the 8.

Big wins for Sydney and Adelaide, two good games of football. I'm very happy that Freo beat Melbourne! Good for the Tigers.

My opponent in Dream Team scored 2188!!! I only got 1898. God damn it was 1st v 2nd in the league, and I was just blown out of the water! I'll fall to 2nd now due to percentage.

 

[Hoggy31]

According to my calculations i got exactly 1900 in Dream Team this week..

Pretty happy with that, Will probably add up my opponent's now if i can be stuffed

OK. So with 5 rounds left, we're all allowed to make one swap - except Benchmark and Linda, who I've allowed to make two swaps. Because they're pretty much screwed...

I'll post the previously chosen teams here now, and you can make your changes by the start of the next round...

And the other team got 1713 according to my calculations but thats not including doubling the captain..

 

[Hoggy31]

I'll swap Adelaide and Richmond

 

[Buddhmaster]

Well what can we say..................

 

[Jono]

God Damn my predicted ladder sucks! Okay I'll swap the Kangaroos with Hawthorn.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Has to be a direct swap? I'll do Hawthorn for Port Adelaide then. I could only bring Sydney up one spot, so they're going to be a fair way off anyway. May as well make up the ground with Port and push Hawthorn as low as possible at the same time.

 

[Linda]

Thanks for your sympathy Jack.

I'll go WCE for Port, and Adelaide for argh I dont know.. Fremantle (mostly out of hate).

 

[Nate]

Huge win for the Swannies. The best I`ve seen `em play, maybe ever.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

What a powerhouse performance by the Saints today... they really look like they are peaking at the right time, and should finish top 4 now. Melbourne don't even look like making the finals now, and Geelong seem to be fading fast as well after last night. Chance for Brisbane or Sydney to grab a top 4 spot too perhaps, and Port to get back into the 8.

 

[andyc]

it was a right caning by the saints, wasn't it?

 

[Dark Hunter]

Melbourne did this last year as well.... Weren't they top after round 18 last year? Just goes to show what a ****-weak team they really are...
And Geelong should've walked all over Essendon....But i don't mind them losing....just means there's another team we Lions can jump over.

 

[Jono]

Wow this is just great for Richmond. Geelong go down to the Bombers and Melbourne thrashed by the Saints.

What's worse for the Demons, Cameron Bruce looks to have had a serious knee injury. Things keep getting worse for the Dees.

 

[Hoggy31]

C'mon Hawthorn

 

[Hoggy31]

Bulldogs flogging Brisbane and Matthew Robbins took the Mark of the Year in the second quarter

 

[Nate]

Swans doing aight, good to see the mighty Bulldogs whooping the Lions.

Damn the Lions.
