If seeing the Dockers win hurt
If seeing the Dockers beat the Cats was like watching an ex girlfriend on a date, you are not alone...

Re: If seeing the Dockers win hurt
Didn't hurt half as much as seeing Luke Ball with a premiership medal in a Collingwood jumper.
Lyon lovers try pinning that one on Nettlefold.

Re: If seeing the Dockers win hurt
I was happy to see Geelong lose, Freo and Ross for that matter are nothing but competitors.
Sure Rossy left us in questionable circumstances but that's life. Freo have won less in the AFL than
even we have. Someone's got to win finals games...we had our chances this year but couldn't convert.
If it's not us then I'm glad its not going to be Geelong. I'm much more bitter about Geelong's success given
our top players were drafted around the same time as theirs and were more highly regarded in the early years.
Let's face it if we had Ross this year we probably wouldn't have done too much better. Win/Win in my books!

Re: If seeing the Dockers win hurt
It's just a little to much like she moved on to a Rich guy with a cut physique and a ferrari, while we are still trying to get a mate around to the backblocks of Seaford with his jumper leads. Well at least until they lose.

Re: If seeing the Dockers win hurt
Gawd it's going to be a long hard week living here in Perth, with both Freo and the Eagles having stunning wins. Think I'll be.......... ' leaving on a jet plane'... ......... It will be unbearable believe me in this 2 Club state.
Next weekend I'll be a rabid Crows supporter............... and I can't believe I am saying this............ hoping for a Magpie win!! Sorry folks, but it's going to be very, very hard for us ex-pat Victorians.

If the guts won't a little tight already that one made a little bit of spew come up in my mouth. The only thing that could have made that moment worse would have been Andrew Lovett gyrating in a G string on the stage next to them. Even Ball's "I'm so torn " act made me ill.

Re: If seeing the Dockers win hurt
I was definitely going for Freo. I have no love lost for the cats and it really annoyed me how all the talk in the footy media all week was how the cats could still win the flag from outside the top 4 etc etc and some w*nkers were talking a hawks v cats GF. One week at a time people. It seems the cats players believed the bullsh*t and were already looking ahead a few weeks and BANG. Freo came in and did the old smash and grab while the cats werent looking.

Re: If seeing the Dockers win hurt
Couldn't be more delighted. If Collingwood go out in straight sets,I can honestly say I'll be happy whoever wins the flag. As long as it wasn't geelong or Collingwood.
On an unrelated note, kind of glad we didn't scrape in now, we would have just been trounced by the eagles today, exactly like north were. Didn't look fun at all.

Re: If seeing the Dockers win hurt
If you don't have a team to barrack for in the finals, barracking AGAINST some other team keeps it interesting.
Freo for me!

Re: If seeing the Dockers win hurt
Let's not forget that if we'd won that close game against the Dockers -- and most pundits here agree the umpiring was a crucial factor -- then we would've been in the finals and the Dockers would've been out (by virtue of our superior percentage). And no one would now be saying what a great coach Ro$$ is.

Re: If seeing the Dockers win hurt
People also forget we gave away not only Ball but Guerra ... "As a part of Hawthorn's 2008 Premiership side, Guerra collected 25 possessions in a reliable display." another shameful giveaway
This is a team game and there is no room for individuals who think they are above walking through the fire.

Re: If seeing the Dockers win hurt
My sympathy Loris. I know exactly what you mean. Eagles fans in particular are awful. ANd the WA media is.....well what to say......chip on the shoulder the size of the Pilbara and the most parochial one eyed mob I've come across. Anyone but bloody West Coast. And not Freo. Will be barracking for them both to lose this week.loris wrote:Gawd it's going to be a long hard week living here in Perth, with both Freo and the Eagles having stunning wins. Think I'll be..........

Re: If seeing the Dockers win hurt
I can see the Crows playing out a bit like Pies in the GF and then the replay, kids have been exposed to finals now, and should cope better this week.

Re: If seeing the Dockers win hurt
It hurt seeing Luke Ball on the winning team, I left the G when the Pies fans gave him the extra loud cheer in the last quarter. That was it, couldnt take it any more. Going for Adelaide this week, even though it was a win win Rossy leaving us, it still annoys me. My ultimate nightmare is a Pies Freo GF. Dont think Id even watch!!

If you reckon watching Freo was painful try lying there with your butt cheeks open and taking a needle in your arse administered by a Chinese doctor
