AFL  – Round 13

The first of the bye rounds and Collingwood went through undefeated although there were some supporters that felt they could lose the bye as well. North Melbourne flexed their chesty bonds at Hawthorn and forgot to follow up with accurate kicking, costing them the game and top spot on the congested leaderboard. West Coast scored plenty but also allowed Brisbane to kick over 80 points, seems like a leaky boat in the west. Freo remembered those winning ways with a third straight win suffocating Power to another year possibly without finals action.

It was cats and dogs on Saturday night, the brave dogs were hustled and bustled by those daring cats in with the dangerwood show on repeat performance.

Melbourne, fooled into a false sense of ruck advantage encountered the Swans in a wet and slippery SCG where the Sydney quality showed against the improving Dees and in the final game of the round, GWS were lucky to win against the bombers, actually that’s not true but this should have been a percentage game for GWS and they didn’t capitalise on it, Bombers did well scoring 90 points.
