When Harvey played his first game in 1988, I was a 12yo wearing short pants and struggling with my readin', writin' and 'rithmetic in grade eight. Now, I'm a father of three and a retired AFL player. And he's still going. Amazing! - Michael Voss

How do we know who we are playing in the 2nd and 3rd round if it is a knockout comp, or are they doing a round robin thing?


Except for the sanity nothing much has been lost.

It's a round robin format, they are having a mini ladder, the top two teams after round 3 play in the grand final

Aren't there a few rickety old boats that wash up on the WA coastline from time to time? :P

Have to admit I don't really give a Rat's Tossbag about the NAB Cup.
(I think we should rest ALL our stars and just play the kids).

But once again it looks like Eddie has been on the phone to get preferential treatment.
And StK have been totally shafted !!

See table below from Martin Windsor-Black (Footystats) showing the average 2011 ladder position of each teams 4 opponents.

Our draw is worst by far with an ave opponent of 4.8 - 18th rank. Compared with the second most shafted side Richmond on 6.0, while Coll on 13.8 barely plays anyone.

Put your money now on a certain Coll v Carl final.
Wonder how long it took Anderscum to contrive that?

The rest of Australia can wander mask-free, socialise, eat out, no curfews, no zoning, no police rings of steel, no illogical inconsistent rules. 
They can even WATCH LIVE FOOTY!

Dont care but whinge. What about the draw that really matters? How did we go in that compared to the pies? Practice games and must play at least 4 so who cares about the draw. Anyway we have won 2 or 3 in the last 15 years and maths says we wont win one for another 30 years so it doesnt matter.
