bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!!!

Does actually throw up an interesting comparison between the 'jailbird' gesture being fined and Goodsies celebration.

If you're suggesting that the only thing worth celebrating about modern Australian culture is crime and profanity, then yes.

Finally starting to play some good footy.
Congrats to teddy Richards on his 250th, been fantastic for us since coming over from the bombers.
Heeney was good again and I can't believe i am saying this but tippetts for the past month or so has been very good...

Hopefully we can see up a double chance this week
And congrats to Adam Schneider on his retirement, very handy footballer.

Very quiet. Put the vest on early in the 3rd... Just easing him back in...

Yeah seemed fine... Horse said in his Presser that was his plan, and thankfully we were cruising in the 3rd. Rohan was the sub so it gave him a good run in his return...

Your LAST 5 games are v Collingwood, Geelong, GWS, St Kilda & Gold Coast.
Collingwood & Geelong couldn't beat Melbourne - pushovers. The other 3 are cooked. It's a great prep for a finals campaign.

It is... Considering we haven't been full strength for some time... Just building some momentum.
Hawks have had it just as easy with the exception of the west coast game...

North Melbourne had the best run home in the comp and they still couldnt beat Gold Coast. (Also lost to Collingwood too btw)

Where are your top 4 predictions now spargo?

Umm, best run home in the comp? Freo, WB & Richmond to finish the year. If that's the easiest run home, I'd hate to see the hardest.
We lost to the Gold Coast TEN weeks ago & Collingwood Fourteen weeks ago, if that's counted in the run home you should've included our round 1 loss also.
Straw clutching much?
And if you went back and read all the post when I predicted we could make top 4, I also said we'd go 8-2 our last 10.
Currently we've gone 7-2.

so only the last 5 games counts as the run home now?

8-2 was never enough to make top 4

Hindsight's a wonderful thing.
And yes, usually the the run home is your last 5, not your last 14.
