As much as I hate the fact that the cats will have three recent flags to our none, I hope they beat the pies by 100!!

I hope it's a draw too so the AFL can finally wake up to themselves.

Replays are stupid non events. I would have prefered to have lost in extra time last year than having to go through that.

And it would be nice in the Pies & Cats got a late start to 2012.

Not that it affected the Pies too much this year :(

I think you'll find the Draw is enshrined in Demetriou's Laws.

It would be good to see both teams suffer!

I don't think it will be that close! I honestly believe Geelong will do them...

As painfully as it is for me to say it, go cats!


In Ross Get lost!

I am excited to stay at St Kilda and this is a great result for the Club and all our fans. I’m proud to be part of the Saints and am pleased to be playing football with the Clubâ€

This GF is already a year late, wasn't last years GF Pies v Cats? Oh year, that's right...pesky St Kilda shoved Geelong out of the way without raising a sweat and made the Pies play 2 GF's to try get over the line!

Honestly, I would have said Cats by 10 goals with Stevie J fit, but will have to settle for 40 points instead.

If people want Saints to contend for the premiership next year, wouldn't it be better for Pies to win this week?

Who wants them to go into next year even more desperate to win one after losing one that everyone thought all year they would win?

Geelong have to do it for Australia.
Plain and simple ,
we cannot have a sporting club supported by the dregs of our society prosper.

Agree, hate replays, its a money making event with no thoughts for the fans, especially those who live interstate. But what would be better still, draw again the second week and change that bloody stupid rule once and for all.

Funny how many supported the stupid replay just after the draw but now that we lost you all hate it.

Hasn't the draw been abolished after last year?

Am I missing something here?

No, Dimwit categorically approved it...every rule in the book should change, but somethings are just plain tradition. :roll:

Yeah, funny about that. I guess some of us don't have a brain or can't think.

You must be a bit dumb ? We have celebrated a premiership.
Anyway thankfully for you aren't associated with the filth they call a Collingwood supporter, they are the dregs of our society.
