The biggest loud mouth at my work over the last month-6 weeks is very quiet this morning. Everyone knows I think his a penis and are asking me why I'm following him around all morning, I'm pretty sure he is about to snap :lol:

This has been the best Monday morning since 2004 :oops:

Yes, very quiet here too. Funny thing is when first challenged I said "Shoe on the other foot mate and you're up me in a flash"

"No way, we're better than that". As I remind him of the "119" he wrote on lunch table outside.

Now he won't even consider entertaining me as I look around behind machinery and ask everyone if they've seen "Eddie" today, which, by chance, we have an Eddie on staff but today is his RDO so it's funny and true! :lol:

Feels like my grand finals have already been played over the last two weeks. My four favourite teams through to the prelim and Crows and Hawks out.

I'm assuming that means you have no right to comment on the competition.

On reflection I think a few of us (myself included) may have gotten a little carried away in this thread on the weekend. My thoughts on the 2 teams who are now out of the running, is they have finished around about "right" on the table in the end. My mob are on the way back down, the Crows have improved. Enough said.

The 4 teams who remain, is about right, with the Bully's playing some good footy at the right time of the year. Geelong, GWS & Sydney deserve their status in 2016.

Looking forward to sitting back and enjoying the next 3 games. Friday should be a cracker, for mine, whoever wins that, probably lifts the cup.

Come on MW.... lets all just move on!
1961, 1971, 1976, 1978, 1983, 1986, 1988, 1989, 1991, 2008, 2013, 2014, 2015.... And don't you forget it!

No problems Brodlach, but to be honest I did anticipate further questioning. ;)

Not everyone is a troll ;)

In fact when MW was being a bit silly I was the one suggesting to tone it down a bit

Looks to be a great GF for the neutral with either GWS or WB going to be involved, both play exciting brands of football and will give the neutral a fairy tale story to support against the modern day big guns!!

Personally I hope the Dogs get up.

If the Dogs got up how would their squads average age rack up for premiership teams, without going through their list with a fine comb and knowing Boyd and Murphy are older they seem to be a very young list for a gun side or am I imagining that

What I found when every one came in from left right and centre to pot me after Centrals dynasty ended was that after the initial first few hours of shock that its over, it really wasn't that distrastous and for the first time in 12 years I reflected and appreciated how lucky I was to be a part of that. Now whenever gf week comes around and the Dogs aren't in it some of the greatest memories, game day ones, pre game ones, after party ones, chimney ones just come flowing back and always wacks a smile on my face
