A year is a long time in football - GO HAWKS!!!

tell me about it. my lad just asked me who I was barracking for, first I thought, no way Sydney, I hate that flog Tippett, oh wait, Gunstan....now what do I do?

my tip for tonight is that Tippett and Gunstan will head clash. Tippett will be stretchered from the ground and play no further part in finals, Gunstan will be helped off by his mum who rushed the field to help him.

The AFL won't know what to do so next season there'll be a new rule. Free Kick and 50m penalty if a players mum enters the playing arena without a plate of cut up oranges.

We got to have our laugh at Gunston in last year's GF but in all seriousness he was close to emerging as a favourite while he was still with us. Reliable kick for goal and has the ability to make something out of nothing, he's slowly warming back onto me. It's a bittersweet moment whenever he does something special

Tonight's game - don't know who I want to win. Tippett vs Gunston?

Port will get slaughtered.

Freo to cause an upset and Richmond fever will take Melbourne by storm.

 

[Macjoe]

Well done, Mr Smooth.
Only 3/3.
Can you get 4/4? I'd think so .

 

[Cleric]

Im not doing so well this first week of finals lol.
Hoping Freo take it out.

 

[Us against the rest]

Pretty close on the margins too

Collingwood by 86 OH WAIT

Tipped Freo though

Boom!

Can't get them all right. And in my defence I didn't realise Quinton Lynch was a late out. Would have tipped you guys if I'd known.

 

[Changaneen]

Do you guys patrol other boards for degrading comments about Port?

Awesome life!

You have a Crows poster ( Button i think ) that sits at Crows games, and posts on the Port board while he's there. Awesome

Doubt it, as unless he was agreeing with the ******ed logic on that filth of a board you have there his posts would just be deleted.

good for him

Still makes some of the Port posters coming here sad too

Go and celebrate your win, not come in and quote some posts on an opposition board

No joke. Just because Button wants to be an antagonistic tool doesn't mean everyone else should be. Are you surprised that people on your rival board tipped against you in a game where you were underdogs?

 

[kirky]

LOL

Sometimes you call them and get them wrong.

Think of it this way, a Port vs Collingwood game, someone has to lose so us neutrals are happy.

Got the Freo one correct and Melbourne was taken by storm by the Tigers (94k plus crowd) but pity they lost to the 9th side (ironic)!

Any betting man here would be wise to know that only two teams in the history of this top 8 system have progressed from an elimination final to a prelim final.

So, of the 26 semi finals played under this system, 24 have been won by the top 4 team.

The smart money is on Geelong and Sydney, although I'm hoping like hell Carlton defy those odds.

Those stats don't lie...although I think there's too much emphasis placed on if not top 4 = almost impossibility to do it. That doesn't sound completely logical but it's only two games of footy. Not much of a betting man

Have to go with Geelong and Sydney.
