  1. Training in now, plenty of red and blue around in this carriage at least.
  2. Also build a bonfire and throw Dockers on top.
  3. I did, how embarrassing.
  4. A rainy and foggy morning in Melbourne
  5. It's about form and the run in more so than mathematics for me, teams that win the flag don't drop too many games in the last month of the season. The reality is if we want a proper chance to win it all I think we have 1 defeat left in the bank at most to give. This was the same thing I thought after losing to the Dogs in 2021. If we were going to win it that year, then that was probably the last time we could afford to lose a football game including finals.
  6. Yeah I gotta say I'm a big rap for their defence. Quaynor has become one of the best 1v1 defenders around and then they have Maynard who can play tall and small. They recently got back a nice intercept defender who people may know about. It's the way they play that can expose this backline to counter attacks but personnel wise they are right on the money I think. Statistically they are doing alright too.
  7. Collingwood is a tough proposition for us in the finals. Different ball game and beating them on KB makes this harder not easier.
  8. More often than not this year when people here have said we should win by a certain margin it hasn't happened. Whether it's 4 goals over Freo/GWS, 6 or 7 goals against Carlton or 100 points plus against Hawthorn or North. Temper the expectations and remember there's two teams playing. A win is still a win.
  9. Need to go out there and win the football game today. Probably getting to the point where we can only drop one or none more in 2023 to be realistic shot at anything. This simply must be a win.
  10. I think when whips are cracking and players are back from injury, we could be there
  11. You're looking at cucumber boy as in 'Cool as a....'
  12. I'd like to thank everyone here for making it all possible.
  13. Apart from a quick sugar hit I don't see what a Collingwood loss would have done for us. The media would just build up the gallant loss they needed to have narrative. I listen to WIIFM FM (What's in it for me FM). It's a good station and Port winning wouldn't have done much for us.
  14. I'd rather Collingwood fail in finals than now.
  15. Best team in the country takes it. Port could have won but it's nice seeing them on the end of a close loss for a change.
  16. It was all setup for Horne Francis to be the hero until Farrell dropped it
  17. There you go
  18. The game is just about up
  19. A draw would be funny but stinking garbage at the same time
  20. Elliott might want to buy a tattslotto ticket
  21. Yeah but further to that keeping faint top 2 hopes alive would help as well.
  22. Game completely on Collingwood's terms
  23. Elliott the marvel
