Notes and Comments

I’m now shocked that the defending champion Collingwood Magpies is 0-3 to start the year. That’s the defending champion! Oh you know they’re under the pump now.

On the other side of the ladder, BFC and Lemonjello’s GWS Giants are undefeated and have beaten each of their opponents handily. Unfortunately, they have a bye this week, so hopefully that won’t cool them down after the break.

St. Kilda beat the Pies and looked good, but it’s the Pies, so it’s hard to get a true handle on how good they are. I will stick with calling them St. Kinda Good until proven otherwise.

I’m re-posting this paragraph from last week because I would like as many DFOers to become Founding Members of the Tasmania Devils. Details for the new team are here: Tasmania! If you want a founding membership, go here! I became a Founding Member as did BFC so you know all the cool kids are doing it!

It’s kinda funny that the top two teams are from Sydney, 6 out of The Eight are from outside Melbourne (Geelong is in Victoria, but not in Melbourne), and 7 of the bottom ten are Melbourne teams. It will be interesting to see if that carries on the rest of the season.

Don’t forget to put the Footy Tips in! See you next week!
