Previously known as LITD.

As mentioned above as much and as I don't like Cwood, it's the team that finishes on top of the table that should get the Friday slot .

I think of a Thursday final is on the cards it should not be allocated to the team with the minor premiership. And just on this, these things should not be made up on the fly.

He may have been a chance but his last three weeks haven't been his usual top stuff and alas I think has missed out.

And a win against Hawks and only five interstate games excluding Gather round.

Wouldn't be the least surprised if gws win tmrw

Hell be playing in our backline again and won't get much action.

I don't get the excitement about Lions winning a flag. Their going to be hard to beat on their home finals sure but last time I checked, the granny will be played at the mighty Mcg where it belongs. Lions have the biggest voodoo there and it will certainly come into play

Feel a little sorry for Grundy. I also think Max and Goody do as well. He was probably lured with the promise of playing equal time. I imagine though they were quite open about his role in playing forward. Just one of those things that sounded good but didn't pan out . I also thought all the talk of not being able to make him a fwd was negative but it seems to be true.

There are still a lot of Swans fans in Melbourne. My family has had a long relationship with the club. Maybe the Sydney supporters aren't that dedicated but the ones in Melbourne still going after their team was relocated are probably the most dedicated and passionate around . You are spot on about the media coverage. It's almost as of the Swans, who get larger crowds than most Nrl games, don't exist.

Kinda of called....have you got your passport ready?

Don't hold back there.

My bad Jaded. Do you think Tmac will get a run?

Afl forward skills.

I'd be surprised if he was but don't know why Turner was named.

Because it's important to have some cohesion before finals. Fritta is definitely going to play. He needs match fitness. And since Schache is omitted, it makes a lot of sense that another tall replace him.

I wouldn't be surprised if Tmac is sub. They may play Smith fwd again and give Tom a run in the last.

Some of these threads are so obscure. Keep em coming Do we need a Ginger appreciation round?

Traccas spending time up fwd is an interesting one for me. He's been playing midfield mostly which for me is where he belongs but with our struggles with injuries, I get him being moved. I've noticed but I'm not sure if it's a fact that he seems to start games slowly but roars home. He seems to not have many disposals in the first. Also Oliver seems a little underdone so can we afford to move Trac? Will there be room for him with Fritta back in? Not sure there would be. Also sadly, we are still in a state of flux with our fwd synergy. I'm also hoping Tmac maybe gets the sub role instead because he's stronger than JS.

McIntyre final eight system was poor.

Breaks ones heart.

I take back any criticism I may have had towards Kozzie. He's still developing.

I don't think he's that bad. Would like some stats. Has gone off the boil recently but I don't think he's been bad in the past. I think the blokes really down in confidence.

That may leave us finishing third and traveling to Adelaide to play in our first final. I wonder if it happens we will rest players against the Swans.

Interesting insight to betting. Thanks for that analysis.

Thanks Jibroni. Totally forgot that. I guess it's a pretty big cat amongst the pigeons. Also both Lions and Port have big home success and as it sits Lions will probably get the home gig. I certainly don't want us to play either of them. I'm also thinking there's a strong chance gws and blues play each other in the last round and first week of finals.
