Do I take the blame? Round 6 was the first week that I haven’t been able to watch live, or only a few hours delayed. And I haven’t been able to bring myself to watching it yet. The pain and suffering involved in a loss to St Kilda, and in such devastating fashion, is something […]
AFL 2015 – Round 05 – Bulldogs vs Sydney
One of these days I’m going to stop being surprised by my beloved Bulldogs! Saturday’s game against the Swans showcased everything you could want in a football team.

I may continue this throughout the year consistently, but I also may not. We’ll see where it goes. Round one snuck […]
