    Maybe he'll get a decent haircut now. I think that's the first time I've ever cheered for him to kick a goal.

      Indeed that was a really great finish.
      I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure..................

          Feel dirty going for geehole, but it immensely helps our chances for top 2 now.

            Hawthorn are suspect under pressure. Front runners.

              All I can say is come on St Kilda or the Bombers (Unlikely I know). Either of those teams get up and we get the biscuits on Sunday, and we can drop 2 of our last 4 and still finish top 2 We need to be 100% switched on on Sunday however, that is for sure.

              Awesome game of footy tonight and a grandstand finish!

                I was conflicted as I had tipped the Poos & Wees but like the Cats win re: ladder position. But really that was an great, great game of footy. Our IT guy went to see the game and is a mad Cats fan, I feel good for him. Now of he can just get the Aints to topple the Pies we will be a little bit more comfy on top of the ladder, barring an inconceivable loss to the tankers.

                  Have a feeling someone may go out in straight sets this year, whoever finishes 5th n 6th are capable of beating any of the other top 4.

                  Hopefully it happens to the crows

                    Fantastic contested game of footy, umpired, well like a final. Amazing how holding the ball rule changes in finals!!!

                    Both guerra and ano (whitecross I think) will get suspended also. If either of guerra elbow shots get up he will go for plenty given his record.

                      Hope not. i want crows to finish top 2 with us, so we meet at a neutral venued grand final.

                          My worry is our forward defence. If our forwards allow easy ball out, they can utilise their quick forwards on the rebound. A forward line of TDL, LRT, mcglynn and a resting mummy/pyke is a rebounding nightmare. TDL does not work hard enough and LRT & mummy/pyke can't chase down speedsters. We either make a late change (TDL out) or we drastically restructure forward line.

                            Agree with Reid out its going be interesting - but all of them are going to have step up because you never know which Blues team is going to turn up on the day.

                              They will be desperate, if they lose, they are out of finals. We need to be on top of them early
