In the tipping comp I've picked Carlscum by 5 pts, but I won't mind one bit if Brissy prove me wrong.
Go Lions!!!!!

I agree with Sandie. I'm also in the AFL tipping comp and have tipped Caaaarrrrlton, but it wouldn't surprise me at all if the Lions win!
 
Tough match to pick. Carlton have a poor record in finals if they lose first up (eg 1994, 1996). Generally, if the Blues win first up, they play in the Grand Final.

I'm not counting last year (1999), because it was a fluke.

I have a sneaking suspicion, the Lions might just surprise the Blue-baggers, but Carlton are probably the more accomplished team.

I suppose you'd have to go for Carlton, despite my reservations. God, how I'd love to se the Baggers go out in straight sets. They have only won 5 of their last 13 finals games, with most of those 8 losses being by huge margins, so I wouldn't write Brissy off.
 
Voss & Camporeale are the respective indicators n key's... whichever gets on top we should win... we have Simon Black this time after he was out against Carlton when we got done at the gabba earlier this season and voss just didn't have the backup necessary.. sentimental n slightly biassed tip but GO LIONS !!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Could Brisbane have timed their run home any better?

If this match goes to form the Lions should crush the Blues by 10 goals and if they do watch out Bombers.

GO LIONS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
The question, my fellow Americans , is ...who will tag Michael ( Voss that is )?

Now, where's that Carlton Team Sheet ? Darn.. I see to have dropped it. Can you pick it up ? Thanks ..

WHILE YOU'RE DOWN THERE ...

. The footy Gods gave us a nice little gift last week, seeing the Blues clutch defeat from the jaws of victory, through bad kicking. Funny wasn't it that Kouta was the excuse, but we were chokers last year without Hird and Lucas.

I think the biggest insult you can bestow upon an opposition is not to hate them anymore. Take me for example I hated the Hawks in the 80's (of course), Collingwood after '90, the Eagles soon after, North from '93-'99 and now of course Carlscum. If the Lions beat them Saturday, I'll start dissliking the Blues intensely like I do all the others now.

Now my tips: Brissy will have to beat the Blues in the midfield and hold "Fat Boy" to 1-2 in order to win. The way the Lions are playing at the moment I think they will. So the Lions for me by 4-5 gls.

Beginning of the week I would've picked the Hawks for sure, the way Thompson played and the Roos didn't, but seeing Carey move freely last night, now I'm not sure. Micky looks doubtful though and that tips the scales a bit for me, so the Hawks by 25 points, because I like the irony of a 100 point turn around and no cigar

... did somebody mention cigars ?

Excuse me, I've just got to collect the dry cleaning. I wonder where I put the receipt. I'm sure she said that she'd sent it off.
