Go back 3 seasons and these two played in a semi final for the ages.
In that season the Eagles rose up the ladder after a bottom 4 finish the year before. The Blues floated around the top 4 all year but were crippled with injuries towards the latter end of the season and exited the finals race...
Seriously tough draw for the Blues going into the 2nd half of the season..
1 Guaranteed win in my view.
A lot of 50/50 games which they must win in order to make the 8
Hawks - Loss
Swans - Loss
Pies - 50/50
St K (Etihad) - 50/50 given recent history
North (Etihad) - 50/50
Gold Coast (Away) -...
2 really closely matched teams with a great mix of ageing stars and speedy youth.
In 2011 they finished 5th & 6th respectively with the Blues 2 games and a fair percentage in front.
In 2012 they finished 9th & 10th respectively with the Saints 1 game ahead after a last round victory.
The...

Here is a my list of comparable players from each team
Please bold who you think is better head-to-head.
Also let me know if you think certain match-ups aren't comparable
Murphy vs Pendlebury
Simpson vs Thomas
Henderson vs Reid
Judd vs Swann
Carrazzo vs Ball
Watson vs Keefe
Gibbs vs Shaw...
Here's a quick video I've uploaded of Blues vs Pies Rd 23 1992
Blues were 3rd on the ladder Pies 4th.
Blues had won 6 on the trot and needed to win 1 of the last 2 games of the year (Coll & WC away) to secure a top 6 finals birth.
Take note of the sound of the flare going off as the ball...
"the proportion of women aged over 40 using assisted reproductive technology has increased steadily from 14.3 percent in 2002 to 26.6 percent in 2008 - that is, one in four women currently undergoing IVF treatment is over 40"

Could this man be a potential future president of the Blues & follow in similar footsteps of McGuire & Brayshaw?
He's well connected in the media & I would imagine he'd be a pretty good networker.
He's a passionate blues man & could use his position in the media similar to McGuire & Brayshaw to...
Should Judd get a week for his elbow to Leon Davis?
If Cyril copped a week then Judd should surely cop 1 or 2.
Watch at the 10min 35sec mark of the last quarter.
Anyone got a youtube link?
Michael Hurley vs Lockie Henderson?
Who do you rate out of these two future superstars of the competition?
Henderson is 6 months older and has been more consistent so far in his career.
Either way both players are going to be the best KPP's in the game over the next 5-10 years...
What do you young people think of the 80's?
When I say young people I refer to those whocare in the early 20's or younger now.
Can you understand the hype about the 80s or does it seem like a bit of a joke?
For those who experienced the 80's - what do you think of when it comes to the...
Has there ever been a younger premiership team than Collingwood's yesterday?
The average age was 24years & 57 days
The Baby Bombres of 93 had an average age of 24 years & 105 days
Has there ever been a younger side to go all the way?
What injury did Fraser Brown have before the 95 GF, IIRC he was in the Hyperbaric chamber a few times trying desperately to get himself right (which he ended up doing)?
cheers
P.S. - Go Juddy
Sorry to come on here, this is not a troll and Im not looking for any trouble, I just have a few questions about the '84 Grand Final.
I was only a young lad in primary school back in 84 and I
havent seen a replay, I can really only remember the half time sprint.
What happened in the last...

-------------------------------------
It's going to be a beauty.
If someone were to send a million US dollars from Australia to the USA through a wire transfer, would this million dollars end up being physically sent to the USA?
The US bank would have to physically produce a million dollars for the recipient so how does the US bank end up balancing its...
Since the Norm Smith medal has been introduced which winner of the medal has produced the most dominant display?
Rank your top 3 or 5 or whatever you fancy
St Kilda appears to me eerily similar to the Pies of 2002-2003.
They gave a recent premiership team a real shake in the GF on a wet day but were ultimately outclassed by a champion team and a champion player.
Chapman - Aker with the sealer
The next year its the GF rematch in the...
What do you think of the potential of this company over the next 5 years?
Currently 0.4c a share
Worth accumulating with the hope they might become the Netflix of Australia?
Or will Bigpond movies be the dominant player in this emerging market?
At the start of 2008, Brett Ratten sat down with his match commitee and leadership group and mapped out the objectives that they must meet in order to win the premiership within 5 years.
Now three years in, the Blues are in their second successive finals series and have ticked off a massive...
