    Didn’t need to do this dance with Mills.

    Chad was ready. He should have played.

    I feel vindicated. Hold your head up as well TheBloods. All the people on here who criticised us for wanting to include Chad should put their hands up and apologise.
    Yes, it's all about you, isn't it.

    In the meantime, we're 11 goals up and about to play finals.

    Make that 13 goals up now.

    GO BLOODS!!

      Suns pressure has dropped.

        So folks where did we finish last year? did anybody think that we would be playing finals this year? We'll finish 6th right? That's incredible. What an amazing turn around by the club. The players, the coaches, the recruiters, the support staff, everybody should be absolutely thrilled. Win or lose next week, we have done incredibly well. I am a proud supporter. Particularly given the mess with lockdowns etc. I'm looking forward to next week. I haven't got expectations. I just want to enjoy the game...

        And Buddy! So close to a 1000 what an incredible player.

          On one level I agree, it has been a miraculous year...
          But I don't want it to stop. I really like to see us go deep into finals: Beat the Giants and knock off a losing top 4 side

            Mill’s pre-existing injury is all that Gerard Healy has been talking about the whole game.

            Healy is an bona fide expert on AFL players bodies.

            Do you have better intelligence than Healy on Mill’s injury?

            I will stick to my guns regardless of it being my team that the medical sub rule should not be used to relieve players of pre - existing injuries.

              I agree, but I'm trying not to get too excited. I'd love to beat the Giants, but I so don't want to play them...But look whatever happens next week, I am really happy with the way we've gone this year, in terms of playing younger players and trying different things, it's been a great ride- so far.

              I'd also like to ask about Luke Parker for the Brownlow? Any chance?

                Don't think so. Norm Smith maybe?

                  A serious question: how old are you?

                    Loved that win. It was good to see a four quarter effort.

                      Apart from the five minutes when they speculated that it was maybe a new issue with possibly a toe injury

                        Would love to know how Buddy spent his week off? He seemed a few years younger today.

                          Who would we prefer? Bombers or GWS?

                            Love seeing Harry getting acknowledged coming off the ground.

                              Apart from the talk about which toe was injured. Or maybe it was an ankle?

                              I think you are getting the rules mixed up with cricket in any case.

                              It’s a shame the selectors don’t reads your suggestions before game, however.

                                Nice overall effort today - and a great point to say a huge well done to the club for a fantastic regular season. We've come a long way very quickly, no matter what might happen in the finals this year. Fabulous effort from all involved - been a most enjoyable season to watch the boys grow, and I reckon we can do some damage with even luck in finals.
