You shouldn't sign the contract unless they include the tomato sauce, @hardtack.

It'll eventually be back-ended anyway.

Which is preferable to front-ended...

    I bet they paid more for Robbie a few years ago.

    I think Katy will be good, she has some good tunes. Noy sure about Tina Arena coming out to sing chains with her though. Doesn't really rock the G.

    But I did laugh when Katy said there are 10 melbourne teams, can't believe one of them didn't make it. It is a fair point.

    Whilst strolling down memory lane, Wikipedia's summary of the 1945 Bloodbath GF is interesting reading

    Wiki 1945 VFL GF

    Carlton vs South

    What was interesting was the aftermath and the mooted rule changes including reducing the amount of players on the ground and possibly reverting back to no boundary throw-ins (that little known rule was in operation from 1926 - 1939)

    Even back then they wanted a more open free-flowing game

    Tina should do great.

    They don't call her Miss Arena for nothing

    If the Swans lose it’ll be one flag from FIVE Grand Finals 

    No pressure guys

  • Quote

    If the Lions get excellent production out of Hipwood & Daniher, they'll win.  They can win without them firing but they'll be doing it the hard way instead

    Taking the heat in the hotspot area of the forward line as well as gaining possessions, playing in front, bringing the ball to ground front & centre and putting their bodies on the line etc etc

    But most of all, hitting the scoreboard

    Do all that with the other forwards chipping in and they'll be hard to beat

    Talented key forwards who produce the goods are worth their weight in gold in September

    Something we were sadly lacking in the finals series in 2023.  And it cost us

    We had no one doing all that in the Carlton SF and only JVR in the QF (and therefore, by default, too much was placed on the shoulders of a player in his 20th game)

    Hipwood & Daniher are seasoned campaigners and that makes all the difference

    Our entrant in the Grand Final sprint is ... Oliver Sestan.

    I imagine you'd get reasonable odds on him winning.  Gamble responsibly.

    And if Brisbane lose, being the runner up 2 years running would be hard to come back from

    Late team changes:

    Honorary bench - well, couch - positions for Bob 'Chimp' Skilton and Kevin 'Bulldog' Murray.

    Neither up to attending. I hope the game is gentle to them.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
