you spelt 'hugely optimistic' wrong

F#ck, I’ll give you 50’s on St Kilda


One of the commentators said last Thursday he thought the Saints were a genuine contender for the flag. he also said he thought there were about 8 with a big chance, he didn't rattle any other teams off though.

I still think the Bulldogs are a dark horse, poor start but sneaking under the radar now.


Brisbane have got it all set up for them. They'll barely leave home, might go to Sydney from time to time but that'll be about it.

Probably will, but Brisbane are a better side than Port and so might a few others be, we haven't found out yet.

Well I think we can safely say that there will no more games in Melbourne this season, Victoria will need to clean their shit up within 6 weeks to have any hope of hosting finals.

Brisbane would definitely be favourites, Port and GWS would have to be on the next level of betting, followed by Collingwood, Richmond then the Saints an Bulldogs close behind.

Do not discount West Coast.

I agree, but they don't look anywhere near hungry enough right now.

The GF will still be at the MCG IMO. October is still a long way off and chances are other states may have cases by then

If anyone even for a moment thinks the GF will be anywhere but the MCG they are kidding themselves. Crowds or not, they'll play it there.

Yeah, I guess they can still quarantine for two weeks after the GF.

I dunno, if they can’t have crowds but NSW can, 100k people at Stadium Australia (or whatever TF it’s called these days) would be pretty appealing for the $$ on offer.

To lock in the GF for 100yrs after current deal ends

Try 82k and it wouldn't surprise me if the mechanism to move it back into an oval no longer works.
