    Richmond beating Essedon handy enough here. Those grey bombers jerseys are rotten too.

    Tommy Walsh named as an emergency again for Sydney. Clarke too for Collingwood. Mooney out injured.

    Big game tomorrow with Eagles and Pies. Jolly and Maxwell out are 2 big losses, so I'd expect our ruckmen to dominate. Kennedy back too, so hopefully he gets into form before the finals start. Good timing to be returning at least. Win is vital to keep Eagles up high on the ladder. Sydney and Hawthorn should be a cracker too.

    Tiges playing pretty average but still much better than Essendon so far. Out season could've been so different if not for 3 brutal weeks where threw away 12 points.

    Jolly is massive out for Pies, Maxwell slightly less so but expect eagles to take them now. Nic Nat and Cox should have field day in ruck/forward with those 2 out...

    Well that's the 8 nailed down. It's going to be a cracking Finals series. All 8 teams are currently separated on the ladder by 3 wins. North and Freo are in cracking form with the last 8 weeks, so it's not like there are any soft wins for the taking in Finals.

    Always good to beat the Collingwood scum :D

    First home game I haven't been able to get to in a while and it looks like I missed out!

    A COLLINGWOOD supporter was told to "f--- off you silly old trollop'' as she was thrown out of Patersons Stadium last night in one of a number of ugly scenes during the West Coast clash.
    Fans hurled abuse and profanity within metres of children as crowd behaviour again came under the spotlight in the Eagles first home game since Geelong coach Chris Scott labelled the Subiaco crowd the worst behaved in the country a fortnight ago.

    Calls of "wanker'', "you useless f---er'' and "weak c---'' were heard in the stands as The Sunday Times spoke to fans, some who labelled the profanity ``disgusting'' and ``offensive''.

    Behind the goals, Collingwood cheer squad member Jenny Goldsmith, 40, sprayed Eagles fans and gave the finger more than a dozen times, screaming "shut up you f---ing ferals''.

    You could see a team outside top 4 winning. Swans have had a great run but have been beaten in a lot of the big head to heads. Are Hawthorn capable of putting 3 or 4 big games back to back? The Pies are still there and should be hungry. Really hard to call.
