Notes and Comments

Adelaide could have reached the top of the table, but Gold Coast pulled off a thrilling win at home. It was as good as advertised. It was fun to watch live.

Carlton and Melbourne join West Coast as the three winless teams. The number will drop to two this week since Carlton and West Coast play each other. Well, I suppose they could tie…

St. Kilda got another impressive win on the road in Perth. I know the resident Saints fans here don’t believe, but this year could be the year they make finals.

Geelong got Tom Stewart back and won easily against Melbourne. He is THAT important to the team.

Next week we finally get 9 games as everyone heads to Adelaide for Gather Round. (Gather around, get it?). The home field advantage will largely be gone, so it will be a good test for some of the upstart teams.

Congratulations to Litre and Dolph Tucker for joining me in having perfect weeks in our Tipping Pool! I was only one point away from having a Truly Perfect Week (pick all games and the margin)

Fun note courtesy of BFC, who noticed this brilliant bit of commentary during the GWS-West Coast Eagles game: “They’ve got holes everywhere, the Eagles, so it’s a question of which hole you put your finger in.” I think y’all know my answer to that question…

If you are a member of an AFL club or you got a Watch AFL membership, you should be able to watch every AFL and AFLW game, including replays. Game times vary between Australian afternoon and evening, which actually makes it easier for us in North America to watch as the games can be seeing in the evenings on Pacific Time and early mornings on Eastern time.

If you haven’t become a member of a club or signed up for the Watch AFL app, you can still watch the AFL and AFLW games in the USA on either FS1 or FS2 and in Canada on TSN. Showtimes can be found here on the Australian Football Association of North America website. But I do recommend that you join a club. It’s fun and they send you free shit.

See you next week!
