A.F.L. Thread II

Going to be a real interesting study, especially with the Hawks taking on those four or five players for another year.

Holy **** Focus on Footy. Worst board challenge of all time. Embarrassing.

Predictions for the weekend?

Much as I'd love an all-Sydney GF, I think it will be Giants-Cats in the decider. Wouldn't be disappointed if the Dogs make it though. Sydney got a few injuries at the wrong time of year. Can't see Mills being ready, Rohan and his four inexplicable errors per game whilst running at high speed probably won't make it either and they have doubts over Tippett and McVeigh too. They need two of those four blokes to play to have a shot, I reckon. If by some chance its Mills and one of McVeigh and Tippett who play then they've got a good chance imo.

It's classic Richmond. They can even get a coup right.

Off-field is going well but I don't think you can have the coach and club setting expectations so high for the season and then there not being tension when it doesn't pan out and the coach stays. It cost Sanderson his job at the Crows, even though he has one of the best W/L ratios of all time.

Sydney have matched up exceedingly well against us over the past while though.

The challenge at Richmond had to make it a referendum on Hardwick from the start. That was their best chance of winning.

If there is anything more awesome than the fact that Robbo has written an article on Brad Scott and citing his wikipedia page, which was changed in reference to him possibly coaching Brisbane next year, and this was published by the Herald Sun (at least online, and hopefully in print tomorrow) then I want to see it.

21st century journalism.

Not clean. Too slow.

 

[Spikey]

enough about the essendon team of 2012 though

 

[Burgey]

How feral will the Melbourne media go if it's an all Sydbey gf?

 

[Jono]

The sourness will be beyond belief. It will me an embarrassing moment how dumb everyone will behave.

Let's just hope Bont saves us from that and the Dogs get up.

 

[morgieb]

I'll find your city's tears delicious.

 

[Jono]

Until the Giants **** you up in the GF like they've done all season

Until the Giants **** you up in the GF like they've done all season

That would probably make the VFL tears harder.

Also, they didn't in R3

The public holiday will be great in Victoria. People can hit the streets to hate on Sydney.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Really? I don't think people care that much any more.
