It was actually much harder than anticipated, but the Tigers were able to beat the Dockers, as expected.

The Swans took care of the Demons in the beautiful city of Cairns.

Without further ado, it’s
Balls’ Sechs
1- The Brisbane Lions needed to beat the Pies, and they did, but it came at a cost in the form of an injury to their brilliant defender Harris Andrews. The Lions’ chances at a Top Two spot will ride on how long he’ll be out and how well they can cover his absence.
2- Richmond struggled mightily against the Dockers, who could have shown everyone how to beat the Tigers if they had actually beaten them. This was the definition of winning ugly, but it was a win nonetheless.
3- The Giants are continuing to win and are now inside the Eight. Keep it up and they’re playing finals again and could return to the Grand Final.
4- Speaking of, the AFL announced that the Grand Final will be held this year at The Gabba near Brisbane. Details on home venues for finals teams will be decided at a later date. From what I’ve read, teams that earn a “home” final will get a choice of venues in either Queensland, South Australia, or Western Australia.
5- The list of teams no longer eligible for finals continues to grow. Joining North Melbourne and Adelaide are Hawthorn, Sydney, and Fremantle. The Gold Coast Suns need to win all of their remaining games and get some help.
6- Round 16 starts tonight, so make sure to put your footy tips in!

That’s all for this week.
As discussed last week, Fox Sports has the rights to the AFL in the United States while TSN has the rights in Canada and the AFL is pressuring them to have more games available on the FS1, FS2, and TSN networks. Now is the perfect chance for you to see what all the fun is about!
Not only that, but ESPN has jumped back into the AFL pool! They’ll be broadcasting one game per week live on an ESPN network and streaming another live on ESPN3.
You can find the latest broadcast information on the Australian Football Association of North America website here.

And now, your Sexy Friday goodness!
Enjoy the long weekend!
I have questions.
Incredibly small malfunctioning penis.
All the answers began with “This fucking loser …”
Like, “This fucking loser coughed and shot himself in the carotid artery. That’s the good news. The better news is that we’re harvesting his organs for people who deserve them.”
I’m feeling like a Danish

I’m full of spaghetti and gelato
Isn’t there supposed to be a music part to this Ballsy?
Yes, but I already had the AFL Beat and I figured it was too much for one post.
Music shall return next week!
I have watched so much AFL this season. I prefer the shorter games for sure. Due to the Rona, TSN was dying for content and bought the whole season which has been superb.
Motte’s dead. Jesus christ.
Great entrance. Great body. Great theme song.
“The Blues had an opportunity, but the Giants rode a great fourth quarter to the important win.”
Um, the Blues had more than an opportunity. They led for 3 quarters and it didn’t feel close.
Jeremy Cameron didn’t have a single kick until late in the third quarter. The Giants kicked like dogshit, and Riccardi saved them. I have no idea if this team is going to win by 50 or lose by 50 in a given week, but when they go 1 goal 9 behinds to start, you don’t expect them to come out on top.
True, but the Giants won. Somehow someway, they won.
Riccardi and Toby Greene stepping up their intensity. No idea why they gave Leon Cameron a 2 year extension right before that game.
Fucking sorcery in the Canucks-Knights game

Who’s got a bottle of wine, a deep dish pizza on the way, and a stunning disregard for his own health? That’d be me.
(Who’s about to have a deep dish pizza? )
Hey Dunstan, look over there!

Candace Owens has stated she’d rather have a monarchy than vote Democrat, with absolutely no irony. Guess what, Ms. Owens? You might get your wish. It’s a shame it will be 350 feet over your head when it happens.
Judging from the polls, she’s not alone.
Not that it’s a majority position, but it does seem plausible that a strong & vocal minority feel the same way.
REEL MURICKAN PATREETITS
“We love ‘Murica so much, we’ll destroy the Constitution ta prove it! ‘ceptin’ th’ 2nd Amendment, of course. Thet one’s sacred!”
This is the exact problem with the modern GOP. Their entire “platform” is “Libs hate America”. It isn’t true, but it’s why the entire right is fueled by vitriol over substance. “They” are evil so “we” are the only answer.
GIF moved due to Moose messing with me.
Sorry, I used that image below and switched it, but your gif still applies.
Best response ever.
You’re going the wrong way! Turn around and go to Fu’s Palace. They do a nice pu-pu platter.
found a funny:
Women get to smell like real things (vanilla, lavender) but men have to smell like concepts. What the fuck is “cool sport rush”
New Fumundacheese Victory Sent.
Well it is… holey.
Dude is too good looking to be Sherlock Holmes.
LOL
A snow storm.
Shit sandwich.
I was thinking a bunch of snow flakes, but I like your point.
As opposed to up front idiots.
“I have a blog, a podcast, a syndicated column, and lucrative speaking gigs… I’m BEING SILENCED, I TELL YOU!”
You can tell it’s serious cuz Carolla is wearing glasses.
Daytime game 7 overtime hockeyed game? Doesn’t the nhl know I was
masturbatingworking during the day?“I’m not picking that up in this dress.”
Disdain can be attractive, or at least familiar.
Colombia’s finest export
Egypt?
That young lady in pink seems photoshopped.
Bethany Lily is definitely shopped, but not photo wise.
The second to the last one is more likely altered for the butt.
Looks like a retoucher doing a bad job.
As are a lot of these, but here proportions are rhythmically verified.
Yeah, definitely. I was looking at the lighting and possible facial adjustments. She has fairly prominent cheekbones that are flattened out here.
She’s good with make-up. Now you’ve riled me up; I had no idea who she was.
And so Beastmode was forced to add yet another future clone to his never-ending saga…
It looks like she IS a soccer expert.

Hey look, a 9-inning Game 1 of a doubleheader. Is it any other year again?
Thanks, DFO. You always have my back.
