Round 12. It's Spilt.

Yep, it's split into 2 convenient bite-sized parcels. Isn't that nice? Five games this week and err... 3 the following. And it all kicks off with the Blues v Sinners. No doubt The Falcon will be back on board for this one - after all, they should be 10-1 at the mo. I, on the other hand, think that the Sinners will be all over the Blues like a bad case of swine flu. ie not as bad as normal flu but it keeps those healthcare professionals in a job eh? Expect no King-Hits, and expect no 8 goals from Fev as the Saints have a few defenders on the field. Sinners by plenty.

Speaking of Plenty, that will also be the margin up north as the Dogs take on the Paps in Darwin town. Yes, Tojo never made it, and no matter how many spa's the Paps have had recently - they won't either. Finally the Paps play a real team and you can already type in the heading "Dogs sink their teeth to turn the lights out on Paaaaaa v.2009". "Percentage" and "Booster" are two words that spring to mind.

The Tiggers and the Beagles. Won't this be a ripper of a game! The skill levels will leave us all astonished. Will we even know which way each team is kicking? Home ground is the only thing that suggests the Tigers in this game. I would like to say that a new coach will help but they picked Rawlings so 'Coach' is a stretch. The Tigers deserve failure with a move like that. But I picked the Eagles for bottom so... GO TIGERS!

On Sunday there should finally be a decent game. The Hawks play Brissy at Aurora. The Hawks were lucky to win their Swans game (money is in the mail to B. Hall), but the Lions haven't travelled too well over the last couple of years. Tis an 8 point game as they say, and a true 50/50 game. Hmmm. I'll flip a coin and go the home team. Go Tassie!

And in the last game of Round 12 part 1, the Crows host the Roooooooooooos. We all know these are the games the Roos win. That is because they are annoying, and is the reason they have slightly fewer supporters than the Paaaaah on dole day. I reckon you should all go the Roos, but I'll stay with the Crows for LOYALTY.
