      I hate St Kilda so will happily watch them lose to Carlton. I'm very pleased that we may get the opportunity to add to the finals misery of Saints feral bogan supporters by eliminating them from the 2011 finals.

      By the way, we dont have to rely on Carlton winning. So long as the Saints dont win by much, if we kick a big score against the Lions (and that is possible) we can get ahead of the Saints by %.

        That margin will need to be about 90 points more than what the Saints beat the Blues. Given our highest score this year is 121, I'm not too confident of that happening.

          The loss by Norf was costly, but the way the game just blewout was very bad % wise.

          Bloody Norf.

                I refer to it as 'Docklands', as it gets a new name every two years.

                Can't see Carlton getting up. They hate and fear us, and would want to disadvantage us in the finals in any way they can.

                  Just got my letter from Goodesy re the final series.

                  Once again ... if we get a home final in Sydney we are paying the most for the ticket.

                  Never ceases to amaze me. Ticket prices should be the same across the country.

                    totally agree it not like ANZ is a superior kind of venue. doesnt even come close to the MCG or Etihad unless they are factoring in the alleged "free" public transport cost into the ticket price. Wouldnt surprise me.

                      Agree. It makes no sense to me that the prices for ANZ and SCG are the same - ANZ has twice the capacity!

                          All right!! Now, let's just worry about beating the Lions and hope for the right result with St Kilda and Carlton. (I can't bring myself to say it.)
