The three teams we have to beat to make the Grand Final.

None of them got within four goals of us this year.

And our winning scores were: 14.4 (WB), 15.3 (R) and 12.1 (PA).

These scores are three of the top 25 most accurate scores to win a VFL/AFL match, including the most accurate ever.

Those scorelines are ridiculously rare - I bet there isn't a single season in our 146 years, in which we have had three scorelines resembling this, let alone in the space of a month. We must have been putting Courtley Ambrose' special sauce on our meat pies. (He took 7 for 1 off 32 balls once)

I have no idea what to expect. It feels like we are putting dozens of dice in a shaker maker.

The Doggies have been backed in and they are now clear favorites at 1.75. What the..............?


You're quite brilliant Shane, yeah..terrific!

That's the good news.

The bad news is our GF opponent will either be Brisbane, Geelong, WCE or Collingwood.
They have all beaten us.
By 2, 59, 15, and 44 respectively.


The rest of Australia can wander mask-free, socialise, eat out, no curfews, no zoning, no police rings of steel, no illogical inconsistent rules.

59 points...oh, don't remind me... makes one shudder to think. It must have been an anamoly.

We played all of them in our Purple Patch - We CAN - and I hope we DO!!

All the home and away results have been reversed so far. Let's hope that trend doesn't continue.

Yes, but the teams higher on the ladder have both beaten their lower placed opponents,

Hope that trend continues.

39, 26 and 29 were the margins.
Average 31.33
So averaging over 5 goal wins
