yes, with a full side we may do very well. all teams need luck with injuries.

well spotted with merrett, best on the ground.
What a great player he is.
The crucial cogs of AFL's Round 7: Which players need to be the difference makers?
100% agree. there are few players that i do not rate, but i will not mention them. Go Dons.

Blues look good this year, so will be interesting to see them play in the big clashes against cats, pies and so on.
Forget Cripps, Curnow and Walsh - the unsung Blues heroes driving Carlton's premiership push
u never know Grem, but I think Sydney will win (draw at least). U want to be playing well this time of year, and last week was a lost opportunity.
I do enjoy watching A-League. Glad i got Paramount because the more i see, the more i like the A-League. Football is a great game, no question about it.

go sydney.

tough games leave u flat and make u more vulnerable next match.

Bombers are going ok, but still feel a few players are not good enough yet to be a contender.
I hope i am wrong.

yes very tall forward line

saw highlights, good win to everton trying to avoid relegation
'I can only apologise, we weren't good enough': Red faces as Everton blast huge hole in Liverpool's EPL title hopes
i think A-League, or similar national league with a new name, will persist. Might not be as big as many of us hope for a while yet, but it will be there imo.
APL's spin doctoring insults Australian football fans' intelligence - and might well be the last straw
No grand final is biggest day of season: best two teams play off for AFL flag.
Go bombers.

i think the blues, but hard to write off an unbeaten team.

u r due for a turnaround in fortune

i was hoping for a bombers, dogs and magpies trifecta, and I got it. Sadly no bet on it.
A rapid recap of AFL Round 6: Blues make a Giant statement, Magpies turn Power out and Eagles sink the Dockers
i like the fact that Don talks and bats for Freo. Wish there was more WA fans on here.
With their defence and a trade steal firing, the Cats lead the ladder. The next three weeks will tell us if they really deserve to
Don, Freo Dogs could be a good scrap. Is is time to get kayo again so i can watch it. was going to wait to A-League was over as i simply have too many sports to watch.

nice title, and interesting topic. Cats look pretty good at this stage but still early.

I think bombers can be competitive this time around. Apart from port game, which i did not see, bombers appear to be playing with a lot of grit. Hopefully a good start and a bomber win.
Questions to ponder ahead of Round 7: Can Stringer play hero on Anzac Day, and is Port's gun midfield actually their Achilles heel?
I like that idea. Fairness and rotation would be great.
The Roar's AFL expert tips and predictions, Anzac Round: Who takes the biscuits on the season's longest weekend?
tend to agree with article. Sport seemed to be so much better years ago, but maybe i am just getting old.
I was way more excited watching fa cup in 1970s and 1980s.
The FA Cup was once viewed as the pinnacle of English football - now it has been robbed of its soul
i followed united as a kid, but now i like seeing smaller clubs win.
United survive chaotic clash with Coventry to set up all-Manchester FA Cup final, Liverpool draw level, VAR strikes again
i backed dons in my winning treble but odds for dons went from 2.75 to 1.35 because of draw. still 200% profit though
