Problem is IMO, if they don't win, you've got a shirt celebrating a prelim final loss.

Yes We Ken. Oh wait, no we couldn't.

It's not like it's an initiative from the club. It's from a struggling local paper trying to jump on board the success.

I reckon you can win. Hawthorn might have the outside run to to trouble Geelong but I don't think they can cover Port in this area. I reckon your small forwards can give the Hawks a hard time. I can't see Josh 'Nick Maxwell' Gibson doing his third up act and leaving Robbie Gray or Chad Wingard undefended. I reckon they have no one for Westhoff and Port showed they can still kick a winning score away from home even when Schultz does not kick a bag.

Hope you win on Saturday but get rolled on Sunday. :)

I head over with a sober quiet confidence, which is completely contrasting to the pissed noisy bastard the Hawthorn fans around me will have to tolerate tomorrow!! :lol:

Good work Boon. Their sphincters will be tight as a snare drum all game. They won't be playing a patched up opposition with no plan B this time.

I think you will find there would be many players in the AFL that would like to take Selwood head off

He gets booed every week.
Brereton & Carey got booed every week because they were so good. There's no doubting that Selwood's a good player but that's not why he gets booed. It's because he plays for frees, gets looked after, sooks and now you can add dobbing to that list.


Yeah he's a bastard that Selwood. Coming in to the tribunal and sticking up for Boomer. It's a good thing North players don't play for free kicks. The only difference is, Selwood puts his head over the ball.

North to make it 7 wins on the trot & upset the red hot favourite swans by 14 pts.

Hawthorn to have it in the bag by halftime and cruise through the 2nd half to win by 27 pts.

Thats what in hoping happens but just couldnt tip against the Swans.
I do like North though and might have a flutter on them 1-24 and Hawks 40+

Nice "advantage" to North. They didn't even have possession. Ball goes down the other end, Swannies goal.
