So nervous I can hardly drink my beer! Go Dees!!!!!!!!!

They will only abduct you if you owe them a drug debt. But that happens a lot over there...

Grundy gave Nankervis an absolute bath, and Richmond had no midfield. Sidebottom had an armchair ride. Tigers did not have a Maxy to drop back into the hole and stop cox. Tigers kept bombing it in to big outnumbers, and Riewoldt was outstanding under nearly impossible conditions. Think if we get through we have to win the midfield, and cut out their marking on the outside. Shut them down like we did the hawks.

Bruce swallows his own happyjiz. He gets sucked in by the emotion of it all. He is not a rational analyst

Hope the filth are playing their grand final tonight....

Wowee. I expect that angry boy Dimma to give the tiggies a serve. They need to tighten up and look for better entry into 50. Filth moving it too easy and getting way too many marks. Time or tiger smash, or they are gone.

The channel seven pre-game reminds me how much I love the mute button on the remote control!

Only if you want to go to the GF! I don't know when they do the ballot or take the cash, so I don't know how soon after you will need to sell the kids and the missus to have the cash in your account at the pleasure of Ticketek. Anyone know how soon after our game this is all done??

If we were selecting a team on ‘feels’ then Bernie and Pedo would be in the side too. Best to choose the team that they think is best suited to get it done.

As I recall, J Smith laid a buckload of tackles and did a big defensive job (with Kielty and Petty) against the Bombers, without getting a bucketload of possessions himself. Goody said we didn’t play well, and Frittata was on the quiet end of the list. Joel took a couple of games to step up to AFL last time, this time he does not have that luxury. Needs to be a crazy defensive beast that plays his role. Frittata should play wing or forward at Casey and prove he is ready if we need him.should we get through to the big dance.

Apart from the fact that Smith trained with the main squad (as did a few others), were there any indications that Bayley knew this, or that Smith knew he was in? At this stage do we have anything more than rumour or heresay?

I understand you can enter P3, but only as a P3 with everyone else of that level.

I understand it is a ballot process, from best available downward

Woo Hoo! category 1 ballot secured! Just need the boys to bring it home!

If anyone has a barcode to the Brownlow they are not using can you PM me? I especially want to sit next to some wag with bad eyesight.

I’m with you. Give me a 60 point thumping to the Dees. No heart attacks needed.

Wednesday

They were bagging him big time at the game. His kicking choices were terrible. Seems to play outside his narrow limitations. Definitely not a hawker favourite.

It is anecdotal, but my assessment is when the demons are ahead by small margins (under 20 points) is when Nicholls and even Razor do their worst against us. When we are behind, or out by a margin, the officiating seems reasonable. When we are just in front, we get slammed. Think of the Jetta htb decision in the first, for example. It should be called the AFL handbrake. Applied to assist league darlings, and used against teams like us.

I found the game very uncompelling. The commentators and the umpires were so Collingwood focussed. At least the media spotlight will be on the filth and hopefully give us an easy run.

I had a look - it was cheaper to go via Singapore on Scoot than fly direct. I will be getting in the Furfys and setting up camp in front of the telly.

Looked like a strange yellow version of the abominable snowman!

They flopped from the opening bounce for frees. All game! if they look at the flops, they will book half the hawks team.

Wow, patches, that would throw a spanner or two.

Nah, I believe Trident is guaranteed access, not ballot.
