Does anyone know what happened to Nibbler in the second? Was on the ground spewing his guts up, and channel 7 didn't even bother to replay what happened before it

not sure if he just ran so hard that he chucked?

I did some sums.  Hard to predict scores BUT

 

Sydney win 95-65, their % is 128.2

Sydney win 100-60, their % is 129.7

Sydney win 110-60, their % is 130.3

 

Dees are 130.5

 

But we can win anywhere :)

I'll be rooting for a 128-72 scoreline so Swans miss out by 0.001%. 😆

Heard Goody say they will have 3 days off. 

Does that mean the first finals prep training will probably be Tuesday, 9.30 am at Gosch's?

What a great start for the finals series.

Beautiful weather for them, hope a few take advantage of the Qld coast.

Demonland will be having heart attacks. I’d prefer if st Kilda win and save us all sweating

Geelong's last month: Dogs (GMHBA), St Kilda (GMHBA), Gold Coast, West Coast (GMHBA).

If Carlton wins on Sunday, that'll be 0 finalists and not a single game where a final will be played.

Our last month: Fremantle (Optus), Collingwood, Carlton, Brisbane (Gabba).

If Carlton wins, that'll be 4 finalists on finals grounds (albeit we won't be playing a final at the Gabba).

I seem to recall Geelong having a vey soft run into finals a few years ago (may have been the prelude to the pre finals bye) and being crushed by pressure when they were challenged by decent teams.

We will certainly be match hardened.

Swans need to kick 35 points. That's if the Saints do not score, for every goal that the Saints kick the Swans need n extra 8 points.

Presumably they’ll kick about 60 pts at least. So you are saying that means swans will need win by 80 or more? will be difficult but not impossible

Great win, but FFS Jaded and the others having a whinge about Brissy getting the last two goals have a good look at yourselves absolutely pathetic 

And you were happy about the Umpire gifting one? Since when does the non adjudicating Ump call holding the ball?

Much improved field kicking. We took a lot more on tonight. Kicks over players heads running toward goal worked beautifully a few times. Put us in better scoring positions throughout the night.

Yep, imagine if tht was game on the line stuff. I believe it was Stevic- who is a moron

Regardless, it was the right call.

Stevic is the best umpire.

Michael Hibberd keeps Cameron to 0 goals twice this season.  Legend.

Magnificent 

ANB was doubled over off the ball and I want to know who punched him in the guts. Surely there will be camera vision somewhere of the sniper attack.

Has been drinking his own bath water. BT love child. I throw up a little every time I hear BT say "Umpire Mat Stevic, best in the business"

Yep, from memory there was a trainer with him before he threw up.

I think that's fair to say.

You need to have a long hard look at yourself.

I had a long hard look at the tackle and subsequent dropping of the ball… maybe you should have done the same.

I'm not sure you understand humour either.

Apologies… but that’s why we have emoticons 😉

Time in time out

If we play Sydney in the Qualifying final, I hope we perform like we did in the 1987 finals series. Played out of our skins against more highly fancied opponents and absolutely belted them. I was so happy for Robbie.

Toby Greene doesn’t rate him.

My first trip to the Gabba and the boys made it a good one. Watching Lions fans leaving at half time was something I did not expect at the start of the night.

Highly rated The Kozzie Show. What a bloody star that kid is. 

Bring on September baby!!!
