Two minutes of the third quarter is enough for me, Spectre it is.

M for president and Q to head innovation

I'm really sick of being told how incredible Heeney is. Yeah, we all know, that's why in an open draft he was the best midfielder available.

Sydney, just the endless charity case of the AFL.

[Chook 15,001]

Adelaide still keeping it interesting, but I'd be very surprised if they could get it under 20 points for long. Sydney is just doing enough after that massive first 15 minutes.

Walker having a shocker.

Sure is

Crows have had chances. But cannot nail goals

[Chook 15,001]

There's that 20 point margin. Let's see how long the Crows can maintain this pressure on the Swans' lead.

Commentators just said Eddie Betts is the first small forward since Jeff Farmer in 2000 to get near 80 goals.

And there's that 20 point margin obliterated again in short order by the Swans.

11 seconds before halftime and he does his knee. Just terrible luck for a fella who's had his fair share already.

He?  Who?

Game over

[What 18,810]

 Geelong or Sydney will be in another grand Final. zzzzzzzz

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

I'd be furious if I was an Adelaide supporter, blew all their chances.

Geelong are no guarantee against Sydney.

[Sir Why You Little 36,744]

Adelaide have tried. They just haven't adjusted to the smaller ground. 

[SaberFang 7,151]

It's their own fault they blew a top 4 position in the final round (or second final round, I forget).

It's amazing how close their numbers are at the moment.

Wiz: 249 games / 483 goals

Eddie: 253 games / 479 goals 

[chook fowler 19,297]

Easy to forget what a champion the Wiz was.

[titan_uranus 24,912]

Adelaide's season ended when they choked in Round 23 against West Coast. Went from two guaranteed home finals and the double chance to one home final and three road trips.

Four different preliminary finalists this year compared to last year. That's a good thing, no matter who the teams are.

Unfortunately, a Geelong-Sydney prelim means one of them will be in the GF and the risk of having 10 out of 12 premierships going to the same three clubs remains.

Was the greatest showman we've had in my lifetime. Brought people through the gates. So many big goal hauls. I Remember 10goals in 2nd half V collingwood. Great childhood memories

Another match with rampant throwing.

It boggles the mind how the umps dept can't work out that having been so red hot on calling frees for anything remotely resembling deliberate out of bounds, that the same approach would work for throwing. As in, if it's not absolutely a clear cut handball, call it as a throw. Then watch as throwing is eradicated in less than one round.

Why they decided they needed to crack down on this "scourge" of deliberate OOB when we routinely have throwing, short kicks, and holding off the ball on a weekly basis beats me.

[SaberFang 7,151]

It's a bloody sad state of affairs when I would actually rather [censored] GWS to win a premiership over either alternative (Geelong or Sydney).

I can't stomach either of these teams winning yet another bloody premiership.

Ugggh anything but GW$ winning the Cup please!!!

[Fork 'em 6,975]

I don't know any GWS supporters.
I know more than enough arrogant Geelong & Swans supporters.
Guess who I'll hear the most gloating from?
