1 - AFL

Wats up guys..
This is my first post, and I'm going to write about something I'm passionate about; the Australian Rules Football.
At the moment the AFL ladder has Collingwood up the top, and Brisbane down the bottom. With new team Gold Coast this season it shapes up to be an interesting year.

Over performers
Teams that have performed better than they should:
Essendon- they have crashed the 2011 season with new coach James Hird, with big wins over Western Bulldogs and St. Kilda. If they keep up this form they are defiently going to be a threat come finals.
West Coast - usually they are ordinary, but they have showed up to play this season with good home and away wins. Not just an occasional win at home, they are a dangerous side to play even when they have to travel.
Round 6
Qrt Time, Ess 94 - Suns 1

Under performing
Teams that are not delivering when they play:
St. Kilda - contested the past 2 AFL grand finals, have seen to have lost the will to contest at the highest level with only 1 win against the bottom of the ladder Brisbane. It is shaping up to be a disappointing season for Saints fans.
Port Adelaide - they have hit rock-bottom with a loss to new side Gold Coast, and are just shit.

So far it has been an interesting season, and it is only RD 7.

Hope this was a good 1st post.
Feel free to comment and criticize.

Go bombers.
