Any of you Crowies thinking about doing the Ballarat game I encourage you to do so, great little weekend away.

We stayed at the Sovereign Park Motor Inn, great spot. There's a good quality pub style restaurant, a pub bistro, front bar and pokie room all in the one complex where you bunker down for the night. They did a shuttle bus to the ground too.

Strange.

Swans vs Saints & Roos vs Dees on Saturday but the Tigers vs Lions clash is on a Sunday?

Even having the Bulldogs vs Crows match on the Sunday is a bit wrong as one of them will probably feature in the finals.

Given the week off between round 23 and finals it doesn't really matter.

What they're hoping for is Bulldogs v Adelaide fight for 8th spot, Richmond v Brisbane fight for top 4 and in the unlikely event Port are in the race it could be Port needed to win to snaffle 8th spot. lol.

Yes, nail hit on head, I've heard along the grapevine that there may be a bye after round 23, once confirmed I'll discuss further.

Biggest waste of time having this floating schedule. Geez, seriously the AFL need to be cleaned out and start again.

Anyone given thought to reviving Don Dunstan from the crematorium to stop the world from ending in Adelaide this week. Judging by all the commentary on the two Adelaide AFL franchises this week it seems the predicted tidal wave of over 40 years ago is actually on its way!

Ummm

If Brad Scott doesn’t coach another club in 2020, North Melbourne will have to pay $800,000 on top of what they pay their next senior coach, according to the Herald Sun.

AFL 360 co-host and Herald Sun chief football writer Mark Robinson has reported that the Kangaroos are sweating on Scott securing another gig.
