kangaroos hop up the ladder

Winners are grinners and the Saints are smiling all the  way to the top of the AFL League ladder after effectively demolishing the Fremantle Dockers on saturday night. Four wins in a row all against interstate clubs have secured St Kilda's top spot ahead of Geelong who are second on the ladder also with four wins .

Other winners at the weekend include Collingwood who  beat the Lions in front of their  home town crowd at the Gabba, and the Cats who held off a determined Adelaide side at AAMI stadium. The Power out-powered last years premiers the Hawks by 3o points at the MCG and the Eagles beat the Western Bulldogs over in Subiaco .

The Kangaroos held off the young Bombers to secure victory in a lack lustre  game and Richmond Tigers woes increased as they were beaten by a spirited Melbourne  Demons side .The Demons celebrated whilst the Tigers continued with their four game losing streak which sees them languishing on the bottom of the AFL ladder emphasizing their poor start to the Season.

Up in Sydney the Swans beat Carlton and some Carlton players  like Fevola continue to struggle with inaccurate kicking .
