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.

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!

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.

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?

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!!

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
