Are they really having a Vic game?

They are the softest Aussies imaginable.

Just couldn’t help themselves.

While down at Alberton we join in the week after playing West Coast on Sunday at midnight.

Here's a thought. Call it Round 1 and have every team play in it.

Between 1983 and 1987 Port won 1 finals match. We exited finals in straight sets in 1986 and 1987.

In 1988 John Cahill came back to Port, we finished minor premiers and won both our finals to win the premiership. And that was against a Glenelg side that was winning finals experienced having played in the previous 3 grand finals, winning 2.

You can't write off a whole list of players because they've been poorly prepared on how to play and win finals. Players will be weeded out, but others will respond to the challenge.

The entire premise of Opening Round corrupted because Collingwood whinged about having to travel outside of Victoria.

The Saints wanted it for their celebration game. Apparently, they believe their storied history deserves a standalone game in Vic. Why the AFL agreed with them defies all logic.

I’ll pay you off in Drachma as I don’t believe in Australian currency unless if it’s going into my bank account.

I'd prefer payment in dinar.

Collingwood wanted to keep their two byes without having to make arduous trip from Melbourne to Sydney. And St Kilda provided a bit of an excuse.

It always annoys me how every other list in the comp is just better than ours by default:

- Collingwood finish 17th in 2021, then Craig McRae

comes in and gets them one point away from a Grand Final in his first year = “their list is better than yours”

If North Melbourne or West Coast are big improvers next year, then watch the goal posts shift so that their lists are and always were much better than ours.

Its why if you're judging coaching the only objective way is by tenure of the coaching group. Once a coach has been there 6+ years (enough time for their first draftees to hit their mid-20s) its their list, and excuses about the list are gone. I dont agree with David King about everything but he has nailed this.
