Round 22
The final eight was all settled before this weekend with a number of clubs just going through the motions.
Cats tune up and take it easy over the WCE 112 to 68
Ladder leader Collingwood go down to Hawthorn in a close one 98 to 95 but its doubtful that the Hawks can do it again during sept action.
Adelaide Crows upset St Kilda 65 to 37
Brisbane Lions downed by the Sydney Swans 68 to 106
Western Bulldogs easy over Essendon 107 to 78
Port Adelaide fight off a determined Richmond to win 122 to 112
North Melbourne walk over Melbourne in the last quarter, i had the misfortune of being at the "G" on sunday in the twilight game, first half was full of errors from both and the tempo was no more than a practice game, luckily the game went a notch or two up in the second half, Dees looked like they had the Roos on there knees late in the 3rd and early in the 4th...then they just stopped, im using the excuse they tanked for a better draft pick

103 to 113
Matty Knights sacked sunday morning by the Essendon board with 2 years still to run on his contract, cant say it was a total surprise, Travis Tuck found in his car sunday high as a kite by police, AFL have activated his 3rd strike over drug taking this will see a suspension, he will be the first to face the new policy.
