nightmare week for picking, as all the games could go either way. Pies should beat Power, but that has counted for nothing before with them. I think the bombers will beat an average Crows, but their loss last week might be hard to take and Crows are fighting for the finals. Eagles to win the wooden spoon game, they have to win! I think the Lions can take the dogs, and revenge on Aker. Cats to beat Swans. Hawks to beat Tigers. I think the roos have enough to beat the blues, but again, form goes out the window here. And Saints can beat Freo, but Freo in fairness have been unlucky, and have lost far too many games by single digits.

Interesting week. A lot of hard-to-call games.

Also the race for 100 goals is on! Obviously Buddy is leading. He's on 91 with 3 games to go so looks good to kick the 100. Hasn't been done since 1998 apartently. Fev also has a outside chance on 84, but the Blues have 3 tough games to finish.

Brisbane Lions v Western Bulldogs : Dogs
Sydney Swans v Geelong : Cats

Carlton v North Melbourne : Blues
Fremantle v St Kilda : Dockers

Jeez, I've gone with 6 away wins!

Some really close ones to call. I'm 100% guaranteed to be hungover in the morning so gonna curl up on the couch at midday and watch the Eagles!

Buddy to kick 3 or 4 I think to set himself up nicely. Dogs to beat a woeful Lions who have been horrendous lately. Gonna go with the Blues to beat the Roos, no real reason why though! Can see the Fockers beating the Saints at Subi unless they start tanking.

Nice bit of tanking today from the Eagles. Absolutely disgraceful.

I was flicking around and that game came on. With about 5 mins to go in the 1st quarter it was 2-1!!! Hilarious stuff! Needless to say I didn't watch it for long!
