NON-MFC: Finals Week 01

[Demonland 66,558]

Who are you tipping in the first week of finals and what’s the best results for the Demons?

I think if there is one team that can beat Brisbane up there it's Port.

I'd like to see a Brisbane win (and us obviously). That'd force the pies to have to go via a prelim vs Brisbane at the Gabba to make the GF.

Outside that, my other preference is a 1 point Carlton loss by a kick after the siren that is touched on the goal line but incorrectly referred to video with the umpire's call as goal, where the video evidence is inconclusive because Charlie Curnow had run back into defence and did his lamo bicep curl fist pump blocking the camera's view.

I hope Port and the Lions knock lumps out of each other. injuries left right and center.

Do not want to see Carlton win. An agonising loss would be best.

Would like to see the Saints get the win but i think GWS will be too strong for them.

It's a good place to be.

And when all is said and done no-one cares who was 1st in the finals experience ladder.

Loved Tobys comment post match re Weitering

"He might be in trouble, I think I got in trouble for that..." - Toby Greene reacts to the incident with Jacob Weitering.

GWS should easily beat the Saints.

The others are genuine 50/50 games with Lions shading Port simply because of home ground advantage. The same for Carlton over Sydney

I think Having actually done it recently is a great advantage. Port, Collingwood & Brisbane haven't made a GF recently. If we hopefully make it I think it would be a big advantage on the day.

Many Coll players were there for the 2018 GF. 

They will be fired up if they make the GF...make amends for that loss from that freak goal...

...the 'colliwobbles' got them again!! 😉

It’s great that Collingwood and Melbourne are training next door to each other 

We have a brilliant record against The Filth in Finals going RIGHT BACK in time

Let’s Go…..

Weitering could have decapitated a player and would still get off. Doubt he will get anything more than a fine for this one even with the Carlton Lawyer on call.

If he somehow cops one week at the MRO he will definitely get off at the tribunal even if they send in the work experience kid.

Must be about time for the MRO to announce its decision on this

No case to answer. Well a fine yet Bedford get a week for less than Tom McCartin last week.

I for one am shocked....  Not

[Bring-Back-Powell 13,424]

Do Carlton ever get on the wrong side of a tribunal or MRP decision that results in a suspension?

[Demonstone 19,706]

So, a $3,000 fine for Weitering.  I hope he sends his money to the correct bank account.

No.

Gil's wet dream is a Carlton Pies grand final, and he will do whatever he can to make it happen.

Based on the boundary umps work the past few weeks maybe that what they have been practicing for.
