Fair enough. I was just wondering about the "drought" part, and just thought I'd mention last year West Coast ended a 12 year drought, and the year before, Sydney ended a 72 year drought. The only non-Victorian team which has "dominated" in recent years is the Brisbane Lions.

Yes Geelong will make the 8...

Also this man on the left will play reserves footy from rnd 7 and then qualify for the AFL finals rnds 18-22 and play with his two sons to lead Geelong to the premiership. Another Norm Smith medal could also be on the cards :wink:

The Maggot paid it so Mark of the Century it is young Jedi. Personally, I'd have rather they paid Colbert's.

Look out skipper,I've got a double header!

I knew that would get two people's blood boiling.I,FWIW,still dont think it was a mark.As REB states the maggott said he 'controlled' (pffft) it enough to be paid the grab.It begs the question though,is that the most important moment of Gary Pert's career? :lol:

Whether or not Colbert should have been paid a mark in the 1997 final against the Crows, the tragedy for Geelong that season was they finished the minor round in 2nd spot, then played the Kangaroos (7th) at the Roos' home ground (MCG). The following week they had to travel to Adelaide to play the Crows (4th). Geelong received no advantage for finishing 2nd, and that was a disgraceful effort from the AFL.

Got rid of the pea heart in Kingsley.
Richmond forward line will be laughable with Kingsley and Richo there, 2 most pea hearted players in the comp.

Wedgie, what I meant was that both of these players could brake a finger nail and be out for 4 weeks - need to be more like Glenn Archer - he would try and play with a broken leg! :roll:

Yeah I know what you meant, I'd rather a player not play then show some of the things on the field Kingsley and Richo have over the years though.

Yeh Wedgie, I don't think I've every seen Kingsley take an overhead mark - maybe he has bad shoulders? :wink:
