Rare MicCanberra Posted April 15, 2018 #82 Share Posted April 15, 2018 A pie and a beer, or it’s unAustralian :D Our friends are on a keto diet so no carbs, the pizza base was a special one they made themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

losfp Posted April 16, 2018 #84 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Thrilling game for the Swans, winning eventually by 7 points after a great running goal by Ollie Florent in the dying seconds. Bulldogs did a great job fighting back after their poor start to the season, but the Swans did just enough to get over the line. Most other matches were blowouts though. Brisbane equalled their lowest ever score by their club (I believe), scoring only 17 points against Richmond. 17 points is a disappointing score for a quarter, let alone an entire game! Carlton were smashed by North Melbourne 116 to 30, another terribly low score. Melbourne had a great first quarter scoring 5.5 to Hawthorn's 3.5 at quarter time. But then were outscored 15 goals to 1 after that. Adelaide and Port were belted in upsets as well, so it's going to be a pretty even season. Unless you're a Carlton fan or a Brisbane fan, in which case it's going to be a really long season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MicCanberra Posted April 20, 2018 #86 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Swans at home to the crows in just over 1/2 an hour. It may well be a real bird fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

losfp Posted April 20, 2018 #91 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Just not good enough tonight unfortunately. Crows had a really strong response to their terrible game last week, and we couldn't keep up. Such is life. We're going to have a real Jeckyl and Hyde year I think. At least the good thing about losing on Friday night is a stress-free weekend from here.

Her grandad was a lifelong Eels fan and member, she talks fornly of the fit young kids coming for dinner on a Mondaybod Wednesday night, especially the one with long blond hair from Wagga.

Rare MicCanberra Posted April 22, 2018 #95 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Okay, after 5 rounds, the swans are in just outside the 8 on 12 points, there are 8 other teams also on 12 points (3rd to 10th). There are a couple of teams yet to play their 5 game though so this may change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a couple of teams yet to play their 5 game though so this may change. Round 5 is finished and the Swans are now tenth but as mentioned there are 9 teams on 12 points (4th-12th) so realistically, they are one win from being in the top 8.
