I have more interest in the AFL finals now that the Sharks are out and I don't particularly give a rat's about Storm, Brisbane etc.

Swans should account for the Cats tonight but should be a good game. Something not right at GWS but I'm expecting them to beat WC.

I honestly never got into the NRL, call it a hangover or burnout from last year.

I'll put it down to the FTA coverage of the AFL

Yeah for me it depends on how Sharks and Blues are travelling. It's been a lean 15 years in the AFL!

Tigers are gonna have a nervous week ahead of them

I dunno. Will be another massive crowd, obviously very pro-Richmond. I'm not sure how GWS will handle it. Then again, it's not like Richmond aren't prone to a choke.

****ing hate the Cats. Fire up Swans.

Dafuq. You ok?

Terrible performance by the Swans. So many fumbles.

On a different note, will be interesting to see whether they can flight Tippett off to someone. Perhaps Carlton..?

I've softened a bit on the Swannies, admired what they did this year after 0-6 start. Honestly thought they were in the best shape out of the 8 finalists going into week 1.

On the Cats, great players are Selwood and Danger but Jesus they get a dream run with the Umps, horrible to watch.

Don't want Tippett at Carlton, has always been overrated imo.

Reports are that Tippett isn't up for trade believe it or not. I'd back him to bounce back anyway. Just good luck finding room for him in the team with Sinclair and Naismith playing well.

I don't know why they'd want to keep him tbh. Five years there now, has he really been that good? Very overrated imo.

I do wonder if the small nature of the SCG works against having him and Buddy is the same team. There's not a lot of space.

Media has been blowing smoke up Richmond's arse for the last few weeks, and no one's giving GWS a chance. Could be an ambush.

Both teams are pretty untested this late in the season, GWS cane closest last year. Really it's anyone game
