AFL Beat 2025 – Round 13 Recap!

This week, we had 8 games due to the byes. Next week, we’ll have 7 as the byes continue. That’s weird. I don’t get it. Anyhoo, let’s get to it!

Notes and Comments

The games were very close this week. Even Geelong’s big win over Gold Coast wasn’t as easy as the score indicates. It looks like the bad teams are getting better while the good teams are regressing.

This does not apply across the board as the shitty Richmond Tigers got destroyed by Sydney. Also, North Melbourne beat West Coast, but does that really say anything to anyone about how good they are?

#1 Collingwood does not look as unbeatable as before after barely escaping a giant upset at the hands of Melbourne. Have teams figured them out? A little luck like having the opponent kick the ball directly to you enabling you to run out the clock helps too.

Conversely, Melbourne, who beat Sydney by 53, got their asses handed to them by St. Kilda, now ALMOST beat the best team in the league. They are a real Jeckyl and Hyde team.

Next week, we have four teams on bye: Collingwood, Gold Coast, Sydney, and Richmond. The Pies could probably use the time off after this week’s crazy win over Melbourne to try to figure out what went wrong.

Almost everyone is within 9 picks of first place! That’s great hustle!! SonOfSpam still leads with roughly half the season remaining. Anything can happen!

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!

Balls somehow lost his bio and didn't realize it. He's now scrambling to write something clever and failing. He likes butts, boobs, most things that start with the letter B, and writing in the Second Person. Geelong, Toluca, Barcelona, and Steelers, in that order.

It’s always nice when the younger attorneys call and ask for advice and clearly respect your opinions and experience, but also they are keeping me from leaving work early because I am that experienced, i.e. old.

(also I got to bill like a half hour for saying “Oh my god holy shit do not do that!!!!”)

Analyze open issues.

I’m billing you 30 minutes for reading your post. If I had replied (besides this invoice) it would have been more. You may now be seated. God Bless.

This Brick guy seems to really be getting the hang of it. You might see that guy up on Subsequent Thingy some week.

last week was Top Gear videos, this week BBQ sauce.

This makes me wonder how long random videos have been at the bottom of the replays, and I’ve not noticed.

RIP to Brian Wilson, a troubled guy who made some of the best music ever.

See, that’s why I never got invested in it. It was all kayfabe, and even if it actually wasn’t it would be retconned into it so they could insist they never meant any of it.

These words are dumb together and apart

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Yeah, but they seem appropriate given the players involved.

BeefReeferLives

Yup. Kayfabe bullshit to entertain the rubes & distract us from “waves hands at everything” this.

Well I’m sure with America’s attention span we’ll never forget it and will make rational decision in the future based on our accurate recollections about…

Hey, a shiny new meme coin!!!

If Essendon hadn’t fallen behind 46-8, they might have had a shot in that game.
