Here in peace and hoping, praying that you lot show up the scum on sunday.

Anyway just wanted to show todays preview of the 1st week of finals on the herald sun website, really good to see that Bruce Matthew's did his homework on the Essendon team this week -

SELECTION TABLE
Essendon: Will be sweating on forward Stewart Crameri (shoulder) and defender Tayte Pears (leg). And Andrew Welsh, Travis Colyer and Cale Hooker played in the VFL for more match committee options.

No, Essendon is not sweating on the fitness of Crameri as he will not play again this year and Cale Hooker did not play in the VFL this week.

Really poor form from the Herald Sun.

I made comment on this at work this morning.

Bruce Matthews is somehow getting paid to write this! :D

There is only 4 games to cover this week, and they happen to be finals with this one being between 2 of the biggest clubs in the land.....

.....in the country's highest selling publication, you'd think that:
a) they'd get someone who actually knows about the teams to write this up, or
b) in the case where the journo doesn't know much about what's happening (hi Bruce Matthews), he'd do 2 minutes research to check his work, or
c) call me up, offer me a six pack, and i'll do it for him, and at least it would be accurate.

I'm surprised he didn't write that Bradley Plain is in line for a recall. :rolleyes::D

It's really not that hard, there are only 8 teams remaining now, not 16 and it's finals ffs, this is when they are paid the big money to come up with something!
 
Yeah I thought the same things when reading it. Also hate the increasing use of 'super sub'. Let's put an adjective before everything to make it seem important.

Who knows, maybe he knows something we don't. Maybe Hooker did play on the weekend in a Gumby disguise and Crameri might be right to play (please god be true).

its all part of jim's master plan. we've been foxing the whole time.
look for winders and dempsey to make surprise returns, aswell as a shock comeback from dean rioli, all 143 kilos of him.

This is up there with an article I read a few weeks ago previewing round 23 where the writer was talking about our chances of making finals and how we had to "over come Port in the heat at TIO Stadium". Paraphrasing there but how hard is it to read a fixture lol?

ETIOhad Stadium in the Sahara Desert, obviously.
