Bomber fans if there was ever a time when we had a very promising chance of winning the flag, this year is the year. The draw favours us, and if injuries and reports touchwood go our way, we could give the final 6 a real shake up. Rioli, Smoky to come back, a midfield in good form and our leaders firing, you never know what could happen? Send me your thoughts.

I would have thought years like 99 and 00 were times when we were promising chances. This is the year for pretending.

Can you give me the number of your dealer? I want some of the stuff you're on.

We may win this week but brisbane will bitchslap us into 2005.

Im agree, could get over the line this week if we decide to play our best but it will be lights out after that.
 
Disagree

Were a huge chance to knock Geelong off this week, however if we do then its all over the week after. If JB gets suspended and Lynchy doesnt play we may get within 6 or 7 goals if were lucky.
 
be nice to have a chance at bringing out the "no rules" against brisbane in a prelim though.. we might not win, but we might make it alot harder for them to get up the next week
 
No.

But we can sure have fun trying.

The only way is if we draw Brisbane at the Gabba in a prelim and then Brissy is so overconfident that they give us no respect at all, and we pull a Carlton '99 on them. But that's not gonna happen. I'd love to see the betting line for a Bris-Ess Gabba prelim; we'd probably be about 8 bucks.

And of course, assuming that unthinkable earth-shattering event were to happen, then we'd have to win the Granny. Maybe a stage-frightened Port at the MCG (which they don't like) and we might have a teeny tiny chance.
 
Isn't it nice to dream tho :p

Just out of curiosity what's our form line against the lions over the last couple of games? I for one would lean towards them bitch slapping us also but the Essendon of old used to rise up for these occasions, and I don't think that messrs sheedy and hird have forgotton what it was like to be part of those teams.

Another thought... Andrew Lovett playing his first AFL game in a final. He has completed his suspension and is up for selection. Just smacks of something that sheeds would do. I for one would love to see it :D

We will probably beat Geelong but then will lose to Brissy. if we pull off a miracle and beat Brissy we will be too stuffed to beat Port the following week.

Could be a stuffed Sydney or Saints we have to play :)

You just never know!!
