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!
My Roku channel desperately wants me to watch The Pink Panther cartoons. Roku is going to win.
It’s best not to fight against the algorithm. You don’t want AI getting mad at you.
The original Pink Panther cartoons, produced by DePatie-Freling with the theme music by Henry Mancini? Those are great!

Found a funny:
Trump- After much consideration, I have decided that EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY I will no longer be cutting off my own dick. I will, however, continue to take an aggressive posture towards my balls. Thank you for your attention in this matter.

That sums it up pretty well. He’s yanking the U.S. economy around like a yo-yo without the least bit of consideration of what happens if the string breaks.
I know a lot of you don’t care, but it is funny.

She’s awesome
Very funny. The jokes are constructed and sequenced well enough that even if you have zero idea what’s going on with the tour you catch up quickly and they are still funny.
Ah, I see the 4-D chess grandmaster has changed tariff strategy again.
WONDERFUL GAMBIT SIR.
We need a stronger term than kakistocracy.
It is actually an Munurarchy
In other news that was also entirely predicable…

He should just run routes on Sundays then be placed in a coma until the next Sunday.
This is true for probably 38% of all professional athletes.

Do Canadian backup alarms sound the same as U.S. ones? It would be cool if they made a different noise, like the sound of geese honking or something.
Perhaps the sound of a beaver slapping it’s tail…

How much angry vacuuming are you experiencing?
Be careful…
“Police have charged a woman with murder after an autopsy showed she used a vacuum cleaner to knock her common-law husband unconscious then choked him to death.”

St. Kilda looked really sharp last week. That was a damn good game.
Fuck em
This might be worth keeping an eye on
