Never mind Merryn - it's only early in the season....


Liam || Books 'n Beards (madbird) Also your fellas did some pain to the Hawks by attacking them with their faces. Hodgey and Lewis out for a few weeks I reckon.

Western Bulldogs deserved their win. Played better in atrocious conditions. Thankfully it's only round 5. Maybe a couple of wake up losses for Sydney not to give away starts.
As for Hawks - a while since we have seen that sort of behaviour from Hodge and Lewis.

Not professional at all Dale!

Mez I didn't see the game actually as I had other plans - what happened?

I didn't see the Hawks game either Merryn, but saw the punches and round arm on the footy site later.
Meant to say congrats Brenda that Geelong won. I picked that one.

Hey thanks Dale! It was a close game that's for sure:)


message 1108: by Mez (new)

Mez ah, its no secret I hate port now but I have to admit the theme is pretty good lol


Liam || Books 'n Beards (madbird) Best chant in the sport. It's like a battle hymn.

What a game! Stick it to the Camries and get us 3-2 going into 7 (theoretically) easy games.

Dale Harcombe | 6915 comments Port and Adelaide match was a good one to watch. Tipped that one.

Liam || Books 'n Beards (madbird) Sydney/WB I don't think anybody picked, what a game! Saints/Dons were super close too. Spoiled for great games thus far this season.

You've probably heard by now, but yeah Hodge elbowed a guy - Swallow I think? - in the face and Lewis clotheslined Goldstein I believe. Hodge gone straight to the tribunal and Lewis can take a 2 game penalty.


Liam || Books 'n Beards (madbird) Did you go, Michael? Channel 7 cut the broadcast so I didn't get to see Robbie get the medal or the guys sing the song! Bloody My Kitchen Rules.

Liam || Books 'n Beards (madbird) I've been saying for the last two years he was amazing NOBODY BELIEVED ME


message 1115: by ★ Jess (new)

★ Jess  | 3071 comments I would have a heart attack every time he touched the ball up until midway through last season. He's improved out of sight in the offseason though, and now I actually want players to kick it to him. One of my favourite players now. And how about that shin tattoo :D


Liam || Books 'n Beards (madbird) Boaky gave me a call which was totally not pre-recordered. We had a great natter, I was like "hey Boaky hows it going" and he said "Hi, I'm Travis Boak, captain of the Port Adelaide football club."

Great guy.


Liam || Books 'n Beards (madbird) MY TIPS ARE CRYING THIS WEEK

GWS over the Hawks and Saints from 55 down to beat Footscray. Bloody hell.


message 1118: by Dale (new)

Dale Harcombe | 6915 comments If it's any consolation I think a lot of other people will have got those wrong too Liam. I know I did.


message 1119: by Dale (new)

Dale Harcombe | 6915 comments Meant to say good win to Geelong on Friday night, Brenda. More woes to Carlton after getting done by Brissie.


message 1120: by Mez (new)

Mez a few upsets this round with west coast, st kilda and gws winning! long road ahead for Carlton sadly

Thanks Dale! A pretty impressive win:) But what a weekend of upsets! Wow!


message 1122: by Dale (new)

Dale Harcombe | 6915 comments Sure was. Didn't do a lot for the tipsters week but sure makes for an interesting season..

You're right there!


message 1124: by Mez (new)

Mez Just about to head to the game tonight... Had to pay $40 to upgrade to a reserve seat, so my boys better win!!


message 1125: by Dale (new)

Dale Harcombe | 6915 comments I'm sure you are pleased you got to the game Merryn.


message 1126: by Jackmeister (new)

Jackmeister | 695 comments How hard is it to pick a winner this season, great win for Brisbane over Port Adelaide, I'm betting nobody picked that!


message 1127: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 80075 comments Mod
Especially not our Port supporters Jackie!!


Liam || Books 'n Beards (madbird) Kenny was fuming. You could tell in the press conference he was barely keeping himself in check.

Heads will - and should - roll. Absolutely pathetic display, worst since 2012. All credit to the Lions, but jesus. Port were woeful.

It certainly makes it hard for tipsters. I know I didn't see that one coming.

Congratulations Dale on the fantastic result from your Swannies last night! What a game!!

A great win for the Cats on Friday night too - I do feel just a little sorry for Carlton :/

Noelene | 364 comments Waiting for the French Open to begin to see how our Aussie young ones go.


Liam || Books 'n Beards (madbird) Bloody Hawthorn ruining my perfect tipping so far.

Hopefully Port get back on track tonight for Kane's 300th.

Yes, a lot of screaming going on in our house last night. Don't know how players felt after the match but I was exhausted.
Have to say I only watched the first quarter of Geelong/Carlton. Obvious then what was going to happen. I did give that other Sydney tea m a little support yesterday too.

Haha! Just as well you weren't one of the players then Dale;)

Dale Harcombe | 6915 comments Exactly, Brenda. Hard enough being a supporter. Tipping this week is going well so far All right., so I hope Port wins this arvo too Liam.
