Another dramatic round of AFL football, with long-term injuries to two of the game’s superstars – our very own James Hird and Collingwood’s Nathan Buckley – marring some wonderful football. The Cats again surprised pre-season critics with a marvellous win in a superb game at Optus Oval, and the Saints hit back Big Time after their thumping in round 1.
