Absolutely agree and highlights the anomaly of the finals system.
I would rather play at the MCG against a very beatable Pies but would not want to give up the winning culture.
A loss going in to the finals is not good for team morale.

It seems to me that (making a massive assumption) we and they win all our expected games it is playing Collingwood (round 20?) that will decide 4th or 5th. 4th and we presumably (but not neccessarily) will lose to Geelong and then probably play Collingwood. 5th and we will play 8th (Brisbane or Nort...

Would love to see Fergy get another go... This could may well be his last year as his age is older than the other guys. so if his body is fit give him a run, he has shown promise but we cant have another player that only plays 2 games a season on the list even though he is capable Give him a run!

Anyone take a close look at Buudys expression - it was really WTF when he got run down! I thought it was more of a How Dare You! Dont You Know Who I Am? Also how much better was his disposal on Saturday? He will make it at this level. He seems a talismanic sort of player. Already this season he has...

Re: The worst thing about Satdee night V Hawthorn

:x It was bad enough missing-out on being there at the Dome, seeing my pals and enjoying a great win. The commentary team on Ten however, had me tearing what few hairs I've got left out of my head. Lane has to be one of the most supercillious creatures in broadcasting today. Its clear to me that &q...

Saturday night was like an amazing party that 30,000 people got laid at after a long drought. Ross, Blakey and I would have had a nice little threesome Some people on here really need to get out more. Having said that, after his rundown of Buddy I'd have taken Jonesy behind the bike-sheds anytime. :D

I've been worried about this for the last few years. Not neccessarily so short of forwards but we lack a dominant FF. Kosi has shown he is better when allowed to roam and ruck.

Not that he is the answer to this but I liked the look of Ferguson from what I saw. A strong mark.

These days I think it's through more of a General role and looking forward rather than sideways. He gets frustrated, he displays it, and I love it. He's passionate, even when it's him who stuffs up. Others make a blue and hang their head, BJ gets angry about it. A future captain no doubt about it. ...

Plugger66 I can understand your question. It had me really thinking. You never asked to put Harvs ahead of a Cup. You asked whether a garaunteed Cup without Harvs or a GF with Harvs in it that we may win or lose was the choice. I reckon that's a tough a question but I'd go for a GF with Harvs and t...

It just seems like he misses when we really need them most, he cant be our most accurate this year surely??? :oops: they weren't hard shots, but he kicked two last week when a miss could well have cost us the game. Exactly. What I liked about his game last week was that he missed a few early but hi...

Once again the AFL manage to create a logical paradox that would stump even the deepest thinker. This is up there with Des Headland being let off for striking due to provocation by Adam Selwood. Of course Selwood was also found not guily of saying anything. Not sure how that works but in the Kafkaes...

In these close games how many times have either team scored over 100 points. I think the stat tells us that we are concentrating on shutting down opponents and also unable to kick a decent score ourselves. I'm not saying this is neccessarily a bad thing. Were our forwards to suddenly click we would ...

I think it's ridiculous that the harshest penalty in the game is handed out for a technical infraction. Barry Hall roundhouse punches Brent Staker for a knockout. Free kick + 50m. Luke Power steps on the ground for half a second to early, ball moved from defensive wing area to 30M out in front of g...

Thought it was his best game for us tonight. He can actually run from the back and break the lines on occasions, an element of his game I hadn't noticed. I think he's had a bit of a hard time. Because he came over from Sydney and the perception from many of our own that we have a negative, Sydney li...
