Top of the table ladder clash.
I don't think many would have expected the Roos to be undefeated at this stage. The dogs were expected to have a decent season, but the injuries down back will hurt them.
Both will easily make the top 8, and I think one will make the top 4.... but which one?
Dogs, Roos up the top, Pies down the bottom, its the late 90s again.
Still, I guess its healthy for the league to have these clubs fighting for top spot.

The Welfare will likely win this, because it's at the only stadium in the country where their game plan is viable. If they do, expect them to be installed as "premiership favourites" - and then look almost entirely unconvincing against capable opposition at the MCG for the rest of 2016.

and if north lose, watch the media question itself and ask whether they went early on them. i hope the welfare deal to them.

Yep, i'm sure the AFL loves these scenarios - another finals financial bonanza ahead!

Disappointing standard, so far, considering their 1 & 2 status.

Not a bad game but hardly sexy football.
Shows what pressure can do to disposal skills, both clubs are turning it over like a game of hot potato.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.
