I mentioned to Mr BF that you'd picked St Kilda. He was aghast. ("Why would anyone do that?!?!?")

lol. I'm so darn reckless these days.

Hey, tell Mr BF I'll be tipping Carlton this week.

Don't know if that's good or bad news for Carlton.

Probably bad.

Maybe don't tell him.

The cats are going ok, blac. My team's playing them this Sunday and Geelong will be looking for blood after our finals encounter last year. *nibbles nails*
Go Tiges. ;)

I'm surprised and impressed you get any coverage at 61 degrees north. Do you get actual games, or just news thereof?

ROUND THIRTEEN (Thirteeeeeen!)*

Well, my relaxing bye week is over, so it's back to the stress-zone tonight.

We've already had one game this weekend, and it's good to see ajaye keeping up her tipping form from last week. Random useless statistic: this was the third straight year the Bulldogs lost their first match after the Queen's Birthday long weekend by 57 points.

Tonight, my boys take on Sydney at the SCG. First vs third and conditions look good, so we should hopefully get a decent game. The Eagles have a great post-bye record, but after winning 11 straight, I'm afraid we're due for a loss. I'd prefer it be this week against the Swans to next week in Perth against the Bombers, though. Flyin' Ryan's back in, as is Shuey. But Darling's gone (sigh) as is Barrass who would be taking Buddy Franklin. They're the only team to beat us this year. PLEASE let me get this tip wrong.

There's really only two good (on paper) matches this weekend -- tonight's, and the Sunday showdown between Geelong and Richmond. I see Dusty's back this week, which should make a certain Tiges fan very happy. eta: I assumed this was in Geelong being their home game, but it's at the MCG. Huh.

Mr. BF thought his Blues might stand a chance against Fremantle in Melbourne, then he saw his ins (Nick Graham) and theirs (Fyfe, Sandilands). He no longer thinks his Blues stand a chance against Fremantle. (Though I pointed out they are without Walters after his suspension).


ROUND THIRTEEN


Port Adelaide vs Bulldogs
Sydney vs West Coast
Carlton vs Fremantle
Gold Coast vs St Kilda
Hawthorn vs Adelaide
Geelong vs Richmond

Byes: Essendon, North Melbourne, Collingwood, Brisbane, GWS, Melbourne



*That had better not bloody happen from Buddy tonight!

Great preview, zebra! Yay for the return of Dusty and Daniel Rioli. Just hope they play close to their peak, I think we'll need it.

Geelong vs Richmond Wait, this is Geelong's home game but it's at the 'G?? Would've gone Geelong in Geelong
I know, isn't it delicious! I hope they'll have cause to be whingeing about it all week.

*That had better not bloody happen from Buddy tonight!

CONGRATULATIONS WEAGLES!!!

What a game to watch, so glad I didn't have to undergo it as a ridgy-didge barracker. Oh my heart.

Passes cup (maybe just a little reluctantly) to BF. :Clap::Clap::Clap::Trophy::Trophy::Trophy:
