Seven first quarter goals to one

Three alone to Jeremy Cameron

Tuohy copped a headbutt

As the Dogs played catchup

But another three to Cameron in the last they were done.

Western Bulldogs 10.10 (70) def. by Geelong 12.11 (83)

 

Walker, McAdam and Fogarty

All kicked Crow goals of three

The Eagles were improved

And Darling kicked two

But still look wooden spoon certainties.

Adelaide 13.10 (88) def. West Coast 8.9 (57)

 

The Suns went back-to-back in the top end

Touk Miller was on fire again

The Roos I fear

Didn’t get out of first gear

Did they really play with 18 men?

Gold Coast 15.19 (109)  def. North Melbourne 7.5 (47)

 

It would please the AFL bosses

That the Dees had two MCG losses

Unbeaten teams

Are just so obscene

They prefer equalisation, some ticks and some crosses.

Melbourne 9.7 (61) def. by Sydney 10.13 (73)

 

Daicos and Newcombe’s stars were rising

And neither team compromising

Henry was Huge

And Ginnivan too

As the Pies won by 4 points slipping and sliding.

Hawthorn 10.8 (68) def. by Collingwood 10.12 (72)

 

The Dockers set a trap in the west

For Lions they’d hope to arrest

It all went to plan

Andrew Brayshaw was the man

The fourteen point win impressed.

Fremantle 15.9 (99) def. Brisbane Lions 13.7 (85)
