Well that has got me completly knitted. Wonder if Freo can cause an upset as well.

 

The swans are by no means impregnable. There is tremendous significance in this result. Can the Titan called the Sydney swans be about to topple ?? It's about blddy time. 

Makes our loss to St Kilda look better. Yes I know that's a difficult task, but at least we tried hard at the end of the last Q.

 

Football is strange

That should be the default answer when people ask 'how did we lose to St Kilda?'

How did RIchmond lose to St Kilda by 11 goals at the end of last season then win a  flag 8 weeks later?   Footy is indeed strange.

What the actual? Gold Coast? At least now we aren’t the only team to fluff it against cellar dwellers.

Take it MFC TAKE IT! They’re sitting there waiting to give you their money! 

 

Dew would have very good knowledge of how to pick apart the Swan's game strategies, that would have been a factor.  But its still a win in the record book.

Sydney are 7-1 on the road and 3/5 at home, so you might want to temper expectations of a win just yet. I blame Gill for not scheduling the game at the SCG.

Try landing at Lukla ;)

Worst flight I ever had was to Lukla...

All others cancelled after ours, lucky me.

Felt like Dennis' 'Cork in the ocean'.

Freo might make it two upsets in a row here and effectively end Essendrugs season.  Wouldn't that be something.

I just youtubed Lukla. 

Wild!! Although my problem last night was the weather before we hit the runway!! :)

Carn Freo! Enjoyable watch the bombers struggle to win this against kids. 

The commentators still trot out the line:

the bombers are a top 4 team when playing well. 

Wtf does that mean? They are 12th!

Yep, mine was a while back now but a harrowing flight that I will never forget.

The plane was being thrown around from one cliff face to another, a sherpa woman was screaming at the top of her lungs, one of the monks was laughing in stitches and I was white knuckle holding onto my seat. Know idea what that would do if the plane smashed into one of the mountains but hey that's what you do.

Anyway, good to see GC knock over Sydney...lets hope we get the job done tonight and stay safe 'SWYL'...

edit: just checked the youtube vid..pretty certain it was a grass strip when I went there and at the end of the strip where you see that cliff face there was an old smashed up plane that miscalculated left there just as a reminder.

Haha. I can visualize all that. What were you in?

ATR 72 or a Jet?

Right. Well they are going to get thrown around. I would be screaming to, asking ladies for a kiss. 

There was a Tiger Air plane that got hit by lightning just out of Melbourne i read. That can be very dangerous!!

 

phaaaaaaaaarq, i hate essendon sooooo much.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
