Might see another GF at Gabba, G or AO.
If I was the AFL, I'd be asking players to think carefully about large public gatherings, like the rugby.
Moot point with lockdown in Vic now, but some are in QLD.
I feel like not making the GF this year would be a huge waste given our draw and our start. It would leave a very sour taste. Opportunities like this do not come along often and we're not a dynasty-like Hawks or reliable Cats outfit.
Yikes. Squiggle now has us finishing 3rd (includes this round's results) playing Cats Week 1. A loss sees us playing Sydney @ the G (or wherever Covid dictates) then Dogs to make the GF. Finishing first is probably seeing us play PA week 1 and an easier run. A win in week 1, if we finish 3rd or I think 2nd) v Cats, will likely see us play the Lions in a prelim.
The losses to lower teams are starting to manifest now as substantial draw risk in the finals.
Obviously there's no getting away from beating the Cats or Dogs I don't think but a second chance would be handy from 1st or 2nd.
Jeepers! Texas Chainsaw Massacre!
I like your posts and would like to subscribe to your ezine. Where can I post a my cheque? :D
Weid for Jackson is interesting as is Melksham for ANB.
Is Jones providing some banjo free Deliverance into the F50 with reliability to the extent he pushes someone out? If so, who?
I thought Brown was useful.
How many shocks do you reckon it'll take?
Crows
Pies
GWS
Now this
To go with the pretty salty efforts against ladder laggards early in year, NM, Hawks till 3/4 time, Carlton, etc.
Tend to agree with this.
Given our start, and our draw, anything except a top 2 and at LEAST a prelim will be a failure in my view.
Next year's draw for us will be harder so we won't be afforded the same start.
Cats Dogs GF
the worst part of this was we didn’t have the decency to lose so all of us who had money on the hawks could collect
jesus wept - this club
Dees V Hawks in Metricon for the double header (@Brownie, we going?) or to Bris.
Hub/Stay there (QLD), off to Darwin for the Suns game, or bring that back to Metricon also.
It might be interesting to contemplate whether the Big Show needs to head up north to QLD. At present, both NSW teams and Vic teams can get to QLD, along with SA and WA, IIRC.
So as to have crowds/gate...depends how the leak into Vic goes.
That is not what was said, OD.
Kerry Chant was very clear - go speak to your GP and if you are cognisant of the risk, and are comfortable with AZ, then go get it.
The medical advice from ATAGI has not changed.
