Ban all non-Victorian clubs tbh, as a wise man once said.

Before he went back on his word and said he'd prefer the cup stay interstate than be won by a Victorian team.

Ban all non-Victorian teams and Collingwood is the revised version

Last time we'll ever see Chris Johnson & Chris Scott in a Lions jersey. Both were great players for the club, particulalry Johnson who played a huge role in each year of our three-pete.

Jonathan Brown is quite simply awesome, his 7 goals, including 4 in the last quarter, was magnificent. Such a shame it was for a losing cause He gets the Coleman though

As for who i want to see win the flag, Geelong, they've looked sooooo good all season, and it would be criminal if they didn't win it.

Port win, take second spot and a home final. Justin Westhoff looks like abit of a gun itbt.

 

[Hoggy31]

Swans/Hawks is huuugggeeee, don't know if I'll be able to sleep tonight.

North beating the Dogs is a given, of course.

Swans to lose by no less than 60, Franklin to kick 11.2 this week. Actually speaking of Franklin, his awesome kicking last week put him up in the top 10 for most behinds in a game by a single player (got this from Inside Football).

The list:

0.11 - Tom Allen - Richmond - 1949 - R14 - Rch 8.24-72 vs NM 17.11-113

0.11 - Stuart Spencer - Melbourne - 1956 - R5 - Mel 6.20-56 v Gee 6.12-48

1.13 - Dave McNamara - St. Kilda - 1922 - R18 - StK 7.22-64 v Rch 5.7-37

1.13 - Gordon Coventry - Collingwood - 1930 - R15 - Col 17.13-115 v StK 14.7-91

1.10 - Jack Shelton - St. Kilda - 1927 - R12 - StK 9.17-71 v Rch 16.14-110

1.10 - Peter McKenna - Collingwood - 1969 - R12 Col - 9.24-78 v Haw 6.11-47

2.13 - Ted Whitten Snr - Footscray - 1956 - R16 - SM 10.10-70 v Fsc 8.15-63

2.11 - Lance Franklin - Hawthorn - 2007 - R21- Haw 22.19-151 v WB 10.7.67

2.10 - Fred Hiskins - Essendon - 1901 - R6 - SM 5.5-35 v Ess 3.23-41

2.10 - Cliff Rankin - Geelong - 1921 - 1SF - Rch 16.19-115 v Gee 6.18-54

4.14 - Norm Ware - Footscray - 1942 - 1SF - SM 13.13-91 v Fsc 7.22-64

Haha, most behinds in a game in 51 years of footy!

Based on your tipping form, I feel a lot more secure over a Swans win.

For mine.

You despise North so much that they don't even rate a mention on your list?

haha, you make a good point tbh

Copied your list and turns out you'd put 'behind north', yeah i'll edit.

So glad to see Chris Scott out of the game.

I love the Lions, always have and always will (one of my favourite teams after Richmond and the Roos), but the Scott brothers were scum.

Haha, exactly why i love them, and why they were such legends. They didn't go out their to make friends, or make people like them. They didn't care what people thought, they just went out there and took on anyone in opposite colours.

My preferences:
West Coast
Collingwood
North Melbourne
Geelong
Hawthorn
Adelaide
Port Adelaide
Sydney

Also, Scott Lucas has temporarily taken over top spot in my list of my most hated people and terminal illnesses, nudging out Lara Bingle, Leonard Casley and prostate cancer. I had committed myself to going to Perth next week if we secured the home final, but because of him and Freo (the insipid tanking little f***ers) that's not going to happen, and my first trip back to Perth since moving has been further delayed.

On the game though, I think we had that scare coming: Essendon's attacking game is naturally built to scythe through a low-pace defence like WCE's. A short, sharp, low altitude style of delivering the ball into the 50 is a recipe for disaster when many of the big guys bar Jones and Glass can't really keep up. And also, muchos credito to Essendon's goal:behind ratio, fantastic again as it was when they beat us earlier in the season. There's no reason they can't have a massive year next year as far as I can see.

Anyway, get the finals on the road IMO. Now that Big Kev's dead I think I'm nearly the most excited man still breathing bereft of any fashion sense.

Anything other than one of those top four will have me fumin'.

 

[Hoggy31]

Gooooooooooooooooo Collingwood!! This is the year...

Don't think they have the midfield firepower to go all the way tbh.
