So if we can get over eagles and GWS can over the Crows we get 2 games at Adelaide oval? Then if we get over that a game at the MCG? Thus avoiding the Cattery and SCG and the basketball stadium?

 

[Powerstufff]

Great, now flights from Perth to Adelaide will be ridiculous cos of bloody West Coast -_-

One of these situations where someone will find a cheaper route via Bali or suchlike.

Edit --- Yes, sorry read your post wrong. Yes it is possible we could play at AO 2 weeks in a row. However the Crows will beat GWS easily.

Our path will be

QF - Eagles ->>>> SF - GWS/Crows ->>>> PF - Geel/Rich

 

[Powerstufff]

drew petrie , matt priddis and sam Mitchell could all be playing there last game against us

No could about it.

Edit - is Petrie retiring?

 

[Alyx]

Mark LeCras by 60.

 

[Janus]

No.

Our path will be

QF - Eagles ->>>> SF - GWS/Crows ->>>> PF - Geel/Rich/Syd/Ess

The teams that finishes 6th/7th can't play the team that finishes 5th until the GF. They are on the opposite side of the draw.

I hope so and yes he announced on perth radio

 

[chiwigi]

No.

That's yes.
Home against Eagles and same place against Crows with a 50/50 crowd.

Yep stuffed up and edited it. Crows will easily beat GWS though.

Let's kick em out!

 

[OneGreatClub]

Crows might prefer to lose their first final so that they don't have to meet Sydney prior to the GF.

Is there a side that isn't flaky?

Crows are one of the weakest top sides in a while. A great team, but individually the personnel aren't too flash.
Geelong seem to be hitting their strides, but at the same time, they keep throwing up random crap games
Richmond are one of the worst sides to be top 4 in a long time.
GWS are a team of individuals and on paper are way more talented than anyone, yet have no system or structure about their play.
Port have struggled all year to stand up when tested and are the worst skilled top 8 side.
Sydney probably the best side in the comp shot themselves in the foot in the first 6 rounds.
Essendon well they lost to Brisbane.
WCE have gone WLWLWLWLWLWLWLW

We're all flaky, it should be a good finals series.

I'm not sure if this post is a joke. One of the weakest top 8 sides? Are you forgetting 3 weeks ago we beat you by 84 points.

The Eagles game was a nothing game for us. We rested 3 of our best 22 and hardly got out of first gear in perth. If you had finished 4th we would of beat use by 10 goals again

 

[Visenfest]

I don't feel even remotely sorry for Melbourne. They stopped being perpetually belted for all of 5 minutes and started lipping off like they were world beaters.

 

[OneGreatClub]

Oh here they come

Oh, he is correct. Your lot are the worst top side that I can ever remember. Lucky you didn't get a few more injuries otherwise you would have been lucky to make the 8. Now toddle off.

Which woke up the coaches.

And you have lost the last two.

Mate, if the ump takes time to ask Wingard to show him on the dolly where he was molested and Sam Gray kicks a goal from 0.5 metres out in the first Showdown we finish above you.

 

[Portology]

Looking forward to a dominant 13 point loss to West Coast and triple deja vu.

here ya go dude. take a chill pill

Pulteney Grammar?

 

[LFC2010]

This is brilliant.

 

[Visenfest]

This is brilliant.

It really isn't.

 

[OneGreatClub]

Mate you might want to shut up your side had the best run with injurys all year and one of the easiest fixtures.

We actually had quite a few injurys Jenkins was out for a few weeks, gov was out for 8 weeks is just 2 examples.

Have fun getting beaten against the Eagles because your team can't beat a top 8 side

And don't come back until you've passed your spelling test.

Do you remember back in 1997 when you lost the first Showdown but came back to win the premiership?
I don't blame you if you don't it was a very, very, very long time ago.

You could almost say its been a generation since then.
Yeh a really long time.

Seeing you're lost I'll help you out.

1. Given reading comprehension is obviously an issue for you:

"Crows are one of the weakest top sides in a while."​

Notice the word TOP. It has nothing to do with top 8, it refers to you being one of the weakest minor premiers in recent memory.


2. Additionally here's a bit of history for you, that'll give you a bit of an idea of how your side looks relative to past years:

In 2016 6 teams finished with a better W/L record than your 2017, including yourselves.
In 2015 4 teams finished with a better W/L record than your 2017.
In 2014 4 teams finished with a better W/L record than your 2017.
In 2013 3 teams finished with a better W/L record than your 2017.
In 2012 4 teams finished with a better W/L record than your 2017.
In 2011 4 teams finished with a better W/L record than your 2017.​

3. Also in finishing with such a poor record for a top placed side, in a weak season, you've lost 6 games total, but importantly 3 of the 6 were to non-top 8 sides, by a whopping average of 38 points.


4. Importantly because you apparently didn't notice that I criticized Port Adelaide as well I'll point out that line for you again as it was obviously hard for you to see with only one eye.

Port have struggled all year to stand up when tested and are the worst skilled top 8 side.​

5. And so for you again, i will repeat from the original post.

Is there a side that isn't flaky?

We're all flaky, it should be a good finals series.

Hopefully that helps you gather an understanding of some basic english, and maybe you might take some humility back to your own board. Now GAGF.
