GRAND FINAL: Melbourne vs Western Bulldogs
Not fussed at all about that 2nd wb game. Would like to think both Goody and Bevo left some cards in the deck that night. Bevo may well have played one or 2 extra cards to make sure they didn't come into finals as 0-2 against us - but highly doubt either side showed the full hand. I've convinced myself that prefinals the only time we went close to the full tactics was the 2nd half against Geelong - playing around with positioning and tactics in the hope we didn't have show too much the week before possibly playing them again - then we had no choice but to kick into full speed and haven't looked back since. I don't think the dogs are actually aware of how good our best set up actually is

GRAND FINAL: Melbourne vs Western Bulldogs
Anyone on here crossed th Gibb River Road? I watched the Prelim on a satellite TV at Manning Gorge. The following morning this was on a sign outside the Mt Barnett Roadhouse. ( For those that don't know -This is just about as far as you can get in Australia from the MCG!!) Had our fist post Gibb week doing horizontal falls, derby cape Leveque and now in cable beach/Broome for some serious R&R while waiting to fly down to Perth for the GF

Pre-Grand Final Match Simulation
Have you already called in sick for the next 2 weeks Jaded.... next week for the panic attacks and emergency department visits for the heart attacks The following week for the party at home (or the major depression episode obviously dependent on results)

Redbacks?
As the home team. We should be in traditional jumpers and blue shorts. Dogs as the away team should be in white shorts with their away (white strip) will be bloody annoyed if it's not that way - we have earned the right as minor premier and straight through

PF: Melbourne vs Geelong
Just thinking out loud here... Would love to see Max go forward to square at the first bounce and let Jacko start in the ruck. Just to seriously [censored] with their collective heads. The would be some serious panic and a reshuffle to create some good chaos footy at the start

Grand Final Venue Watch
The stars are definitely aligning for me. Currently in Kununurra- will be crossing the Gibb River Road over the next 2 weeks. The Friday night prelim has aligned with a station stay where I will be able to watch. The week off means I will be in Broome the week before the GF. Easy flight down from there - just need to source tickets x2. Grand final guarantee on the membership should solve that All set I reckon

Top of the table
46 years for me. 8 years for my son. We're high fiving and fist bumping like mad. We are in a caravan on the Nt Wa border near Kununurra waiting to pass through tomorrow. But [censored] me this is the best moment of my life right now. Beats having a Melbourne cup runner in 2005 and the run in to 2000 and 88 by the length of the flemington straight. What does tonight eclipses you?

Sacred terminology
I still use Pivot. The true centre man position. Playing pivot to me means someone who basically plays in the centre square. Not rushing to defence or to F50. The guy who is always the go guy switch, the first defender when the ball bounces out of F50. Never gets out of 2nd gear (usually because he doesn't have another to go to!) But plays 100% game time. Not just another on baller who goes every where. The Greg Diesel Williams style of play.

Petty the Unnoticed Crucial Cog
Well he's certainly been noticed now. I want to apologise to Harry. I was wrong on this guy. Never thought he would make it and actively called for TMac to go back when Tommo went down. Wrong o 2 counts there!! Outstanding last night in the Adelaide cauldron.

Where Will We Play Collingwood? (QB Big Freeze)
Just watched Neale on AFL 360 FMD Tears again. love that man. Seeing him now like this is just [censored]. my most favourite memory of Neale - at Schwartz’s pub day after 2000 granny - the tab ran out.... Neale was the bloke that got stung - had to pay for a round of about 20 drinks... no arguments just did it. Schwarta in panic stations on the phone... 30 seconds later - tab back on -carry on... not far behind.. “take a [censored] mark Neita...”

My 3 word player analysis V Brisbane
Spargo - kick the fu&&ing goal. OK that's 4. But hey it needed the extra. Running in clear 40 out - just kick the goal - don't pass it there

Calling it now!
Viney will be a bonus if he plays. Salem is absolutely essential. This was most definitely a loss we had to have. We didn't do the things that have gots us here. The blocks and shepherds weren't there. We running off not helping the guy 5m away trying to get an easy handball. We were caught doing Hollywood crap. Fix this and we will competitive with Footscray. Do it not and we get thumped by 10 goals. All we need is to be competitive and then win or lose it will be close. I fully expect this to be the GF preview

Pie floaters are good - those photos look like vomit though! Adelaide really should make the most of their state though and have coffin bay oysters and penfolds wines as their food vans...

GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Carlton
Tipping Weed to have a monster game. They have to put all their energy into stopping brown and tmac and koz. this will leave weed almost free. A very different prospect to being the only guy in the fwd line and being triple teamed
