Everyone's playing for second

2018-02-26T15:30+11:00

Listen up Doc, the JLT series started on the weekend.

It’s early days and gives the older experienced players a chance to dust off the cobwebs and youngsters starting out a taste of things to come.

You can read into these games whatever you want...this is what I saw:

West Coast vs. Port Adelaide – They both kicked eight goals each in a ho-hum game.

Adelaide vs Fremantle was a fun 10-point game margin

Melbourne beat a struggling North by 53 points

And Richmond, my God how scary were they in destroying a much hyped up Essendon by 87 points and never got out of first gear.

No premiership hangover for the Tigers who looked a class above any of the teams that played on the weekend.

As you know we never get ahead of ourselves at Tigerland but surely after watching them be so clinical, aggressive and hungry it seems everyone else is playing for second in 2018.

The Tigers are looking at a five-peat, something the game has never seen before.

I’m KB, that’s my take
