    Greene and Griffen will be handy ins for them though. Corr too.

    Will be a totally different line up compared to 2 weeks ago.
    Deludio: the mistaken belief, that a number one draft pick, will soon see your club win a premiership.

      WC in Perth. Easy win. Gaff and nic nat are big loses. Out in straight sets.
      Hawthorn at MCG . Yes, they upset tigers, but up and down form gets to them. Win.
      Pies grand final.
      Change of heart, after saying that the winner won't progress too far?

      Your predictions aren't too bad though. A lot of 50/50 games this year, mean that lots of teams are in with a chance of making the GF. I think Richmond are going to win the whole show handily though, unless they catch up on a whole season's worth of injuries in the first two weeks of finals.

        If Richmond are to win the GF , that will be their 24th consecutive win at the G !

          Would still be chasing Winx though!

            Not necessarily. They could lose to Hawthorn, win their next (at the G) and then have to travel west for their prelim.

              Thanks for reminding me.
              Sooo, Tigers into Winx multi : $3.15 ($2.25 x $1.40).

              Sure a thing as you could get?

                This reminds me of playing Geelong at Simonds Stadium and they had shirts printed before the game saying congrats on 30 home game wins in a row (or words to that).. I really enjoyed the result. I believe Rohan kicked a great running goal that day.

                  Of course, I should have said if they proceed undefeated to the Granny and prevail.

                      Yep, and half of them have never been to an away game.

                        I'll be there as it's a marquee game for the city, even though it should be at ANZ, but I don't think the winner will progress far after this.
                        The winner will probably play Collingwood, who haven't impressed. To be honest the gulf between Richmond and the rest is great - you could throw a tissue over the rest. Geelong came 8th and are probably most likely at this stage with Harry Taylor coming back, Hawkins in form and Dangerfield stepping up. Very good midfield.
                        The eternal connundrum "what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object" was finally solved when David Hasselhoff punched himself in the face.

                          This week off before the finals bull@@@@ has to stop.
                          If I'm losing momentum... so are the team!!
                          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.

                              Channel 9 Footy Show this morning previewed 3 finals. Guess which one they missed. One question was asked; "will Franklin play"?
