I have issues
Being the off-season now, I thought I'd have a re-watch of my favourite matches from the season just passed, starting with the Round 1 clash with Sydney.
After fifteen minutes of the first quarter, I had to turn it off, as I was starting to feel sick. I guess I couldn't help but feel that I was re-living the birth of one of our club's best seasons in our long history, yet with no flag at the finish line.
I know, the grand final is done and dusted, need to get over it and move on, but the thought that it should have been ours still makes me sick. I know, I have more serious issues than I originally thought.
But, if anything, certainly makes me burn for redemption.

Oh I am not talking premierships, bring them on plenty and soon. I was referring to the OP's birth of something great, and I see no reason to talk about finish lines for this era of greatnesschook23 wrote:as long as your defintion of "long way off" is only ONE SEASON!!SainterK wrote:Of course it was the birth of something great, however I prefer to think that the finish line is a long way off yet...

Re: I have issues
If you thought we were going places after 15 minutes of round, you certainly do have issues. At that stage you'd think we'd be lucky to make the eight.SydneySainter wrote:Being the off-season now, I thought I'd have a re-watch of my favourite matches from the season just passed, starting with the Round 1 clash with Sydney.

Should give that game a go. For me, that match was more about giving Port a thrashing that was more than a decade over-due, than about our claim for the premiership. Certainly wiped that "we're your bogey" smirk off Choco's face.saintbrat wrote:I watched the demolition of Port Adelaide At AAMI the other night- now that was a FUN outing

Nothing ignites the passion like that mid-season bash and crash match against the Cats!

When they created LENNY HAYES (in the shadow of Harvs) they forgot to break the mold (again)- hence the Supremely Incredible Jack Steven!!
