The agony and...the agony!

AFL....Queens birthday footy left everyone on the edge of their seat, fulfilled and unfulfilled all at the same time. Last time they met, The Dee's almost pinched it on the siren, but the Pies won by a point!..This time, it was almost the same story, a bloody draw! Collingwood were hanging on by their fingertips again, when captain Nick decided to injure himself good and take himself out of the game. And the Dee's still can't say they have beaten the Pies this year! 2 points each is better than zip, sharing is caring.


Are they really upset or just releived nobody has to face a defeated coach?..Can you tell who has the more understanding coach? Collingwood are happier with the draw cause they are under Mick:

This is it, oh this time I know it's the real thing!..No Danny isn't making a comeback, K-Hunt has finally played his first game of AFL!...In the holy land and bright lights of Craigieburn. He barely touched the ball, and his 2nd goal was flattering as it was from a push in the back, 10 seconds after he kicked his only genuine effort goal. Upon realising how much more effort was required for AFL than League, K-Hunt was probably realising why he was getting payed more money, he's required to run a lot! His legs seized up with cramp at the end of the third quarter, but the coaches were relieved he made it that far. Lucky he has a year to get fit, warning Folau. Buyer beware!

It's been long time since the Tigs have won...actually its only been a few rounds??? But this week they achieved something that is a rarity these days, one of their players kicked double figures! The man, Jack Riewoldt, usually known as the 'lesser' Riewoldt put on show not seen since Ablett senior days! So good he gets two pictures:

The Tigers are keeping a lid on it, but we don't think Jack is:

The Roo's decided to stuff our tips up this week, but on the other hand, most are happy Carlton lost. Can't win em all. The Blues are still the Katy Perrys of the AFL, still running hot and cold.

Can you smell that?..no its not the Blues cooking anything, it's Hawthorns MO-JO. Cyrol is back, and Roughy is almost back, but can they ever beat Essendon this century? Have to wait till next week.

With half the team missing, everyone feared the Cats were in touble...everyone except the Cats, that is. Another clinical performance, even the Coach was blown away by the depth that remained without half their stars. The umpire still hasn't worked out whether he was supposed to give the free kick to Wo-jo or Davy, and he is still wearing his underwear on his head.

Port lost to the Swans for obvious reasons. As Guido Hatzis would say, less time laughing, more time kicking! Dan Han has his tongue out in this pic, and rather than putting on an inspiring chase, the Port player is having a laugh at it.

Tipping StKilda in Fremantle, we were all quietly pooing our pants, but the risk payed off! Freo hasn't lost two in a row all year. Are the wheels falling off, or is it only temporary. Or maybe we cursed them and gave them nightmares by playing the 'Wharfie time' clip on our show again.

The Dogs sensed the opportunity of a lifetime! A chance to win again! Johnothon Brown (Mac Truck number one), was left out of the game on the weekend. And Fev was too busy whinging to kick any goals, just like the good ol days.

Tm Cahill was inconsolable after the sending-off which left his World Cup in virtual ruins. He described it as the saddest moment of his career. After waiting for years for this game, he will not get to play in the next match with the Soceroos either. Imagine how sad he wouldve been if we actually won! Germany kicked our ass as expected 4 zip. Other disturbing results include Englands 1 all draw with the USA, and South Koreas convincing win over Greece.

Even more disturbing is the proposed ban on soccer horns. Although fans are actually behind the move to rid them! Next they will turn on themsleves!

First there was the baby Broncos, now there is the Baby storms, or the drizzles. With half the team out the Roosters steamrolled Melbourne in Monday night NRL. The Eeels have slipped into the 8 for the first time in a while. And the Wes Tigs are now in 3rd!

Lewis is now on a hat-trick after winning hte Montreal GP. Hopefully his team mate will ruin it for him and run him into the dirt, just like Vettel did to our Mark Webber. Marks curse continues, as a gearbox change cost him 5 places to start 7th on the grid, and top spot on the leaderboard. McLaren has overtaken Red Bull in the drives as well. Vettel is about 4th thanks to being Formula ones biggest brat.

Eighth-seeded Lleyton Hewitt has beaten Roger Federer for the first time in 16 matches to win the ATP Tour's Gerry Weber Open title. The Australian won 3-6 7-6 (7-4) 6-4 in his first final of 2010. Hewitt last beat Federer in 2003 when R-Fed was practically hobbling on one leg. This was more satisfying as Roger seemed in decent shape....GO LLEYTS!

Davadenko you beauty!:

all that and more on the show that goes through more balls than Roger Federer.



Peace out*.
