Round 18 - Lets Weed out the... Weeds...

North Melbourne and Carlton. It is games like this that make Mrs Horseboy happy, cos she knows i won't be tuning in. Bring back Sticks!!!! Carlton will win and keep their finals hopes alive, all the while validating Bucks decision to sit in the box at Vic Park.

Geelong and Adelaide. Oof. Cracker. It's in Melbourne. Or Tassie. Or somewhere over THERE where it's bluddy cold all the time. It seems the Crows have to play a bottom team (Dockers) then a top team (Sinners), then a bottom team (Port), then a top team (Cats). When will it finish? Well. Next week cos we play the Pies. But anyway, Geelong have a few injuries so the Mighty's have gotta go in hungry. It would indeed be a nice little earner... but I think the rest of you should back the Cats, cos I need to catch one up on you.

Yes the Dogs will smash the Purple Malaise - but not by too much eh? And yes the Sinners will pump the Swans - even in Sydney - but the Pies n Lions isn't such an easy bet eh? Home ground advantage tells me the Pies, while the same logic dictates the Paps to climb back up against the Hawks and Eagles to leave Knights with porridge on his face over at the Subi. Richmond and Melbourne? Oh god. Who cares? There's one thing I do know though - footy won't be the winner.
