Round 18 - Non MFC games

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.

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! 

[bringbackthebiff 654]

Good result, means we are a big chance to beat the swans.

Unfortunately I am now nervous about the Gold Coast game ? ...

[darkhorse72 1,906]

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!!

[DubDee 25,667]

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?

Small prop plane probably around about a 20 seater...must look up some old photos.

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!!

[Mr Steve 3,820]

So we win tonight and most likely we still would not have beaten a side in the eight. At round end anyway.

phaaaaaaaaarq, i hate essendon sooooo much.
