    I love a good conspiracy theory, but logically, if Mike $h!!tzpatdick were to instruct the umps to cheat and if at any stage in the future even one of the conspiring ups revealed it, can you imagine the backlash? It's a hard thing to cover up IMO

      Was already hyped now I am sooo pumped for the game tonight

      CMON SWANNIES!!!!!
      I remember watching that somewhere in town and then rushing over to the SCG to camp out for tickets.
      Does anyone have (or have a link to) the video someone (on here I think) made of the 2005 finals series, with Green day's Good Riddance in the background ?
      Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way you'll be a mile away and he'll be shoeless.

          Oh I remember that night like it was yesterday! We were watching the game at home and as soon as the final siren went, my eldest daughter and I jumped in the car and headed to the SCG - couldn't believe how many people had beaten us there!
          What a great night/morning that was, everybody laughing and joking, we were one gigantic, happy family that night, all of us thinking we were dreaming!
          It might be easier the way it's done now but it's nowhere near as special!

            Umpires for tonight: Donlon, Jeffery and...ughh...Stevic. Then again, since the Hawks aren't playing, he may not be too bad.

                Are we there yet?
                Am I the only one, or is this afternoon just dragging.
                Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
                Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

                  We had a schedule, so that we could wait 4 or 5 hours in turn, but it was such a great night I think most of us stayed most of the night.

                    Nervous as.
                    But I put a little bet on the Swans at $2.30.
                    Slightly confident.

                        My tip for a late change and I hope I'm wrong, but here it is....Rohan out, Harry in. I say this because I just saw on the news, footage of Swans training today and Harry looked really happy.....then again, maybe that was because he isn't playing. I know it's not much to go on, but I've put it out there........

                          Looks like being a perfect night for footy here. It was typical Melbourne grey gloominess this morning but the afternoon has been very pleasant. There's no breeze, light cloud cover. Bring on 7:50!

                            This is taking for ever..

                            Tippett needs to have a good game take some pressure of Bud and bring the ball to ground which he's not great at. Nankervis played a really good game last week unlucky to miss out.

                            Also Dangerfield had 8 free kicks in round 16, we had 12 last week

                              This is the PL we wanted , Minor Premiers, crossed over , saw off The in form Crows, bounced back from a few injuries, will get an 8 day break, have a long list of hard nuts to get this sorted.
                              See off these pampered pussies and move on.
