We probably got the one from the Sydney game

Would have thought he would get a game at one of the finals

 

[cleanhands]

Too impartial?

Not a betting man

"If"?

'When' Froggy, When.

If we win tomorrow night and can avoid injury we will win the flag. Although, I’m not confident about tomorrows game. IMO Collingwood are clear favourites. They will be a hardened beast in finals.

 

[Dirty Bird]

Why no Rohdan as goal umpire?

One of the worst goal umpires in the league.

If we win tomorrow, we have a very good chance of winning the flag. Due to the potential change in pathway, if we lose, our flag chances become slim.

Estimating the cumulative probability (I'll assume the granny is 50/50 as we have no clue who we would face):

Win QF
Home prelim 70%
Grand final 50%
0.7 x 0.5 = 0.35 or 35%

Lose QF
Home semi 70%
Away prelim 30%
Grand final 50%
0.7 x 0.3 x 0.5 = 0.11 or 11%.

I gather the tix were all GA and not seated ??

I imagine there would have been Chartered buses that get groups of tickets then hand back what they didn't sell.

Putting each game at 50/50 gives us an 18.75% chance of winning the premiership. I think this reflects the 'true' odds the best.

Old goggles is back though, so he can try give them a crack.

 

[brucetiki]

Babe, wake up it’s game day!

Love the new avatar, Beardthorpe, by one of your kids? ... You?

You oughta send it to him. I reckon he'd love it.

Google images, my kids love KPOP Demon Hunters at the moment, they have no interest in football

"KPOP Demon Hunters", huh ... ?

Lemme guess; that'd be a mixed-gender group of Korean pop stars who break into song before and/or after they hunt and kill Demons who threaten the world ...?
I'm an old fart, kind of a traditionalist in many ways, but you seem to be a reasonable and thoughtful bloke.

Does their fascination with KPOPDH build strong young minds or is it a peer pressure thing?

TEX Goal within 30 seconds
Crowd up and about

Fixed that for you.

I watched 6 foot Turtles doing martial arts after being taught to do so by a mutant rat when I was growing up.

It didn't damage me in any way

Its very good, the soundtrack is top shelf and its not idiots on Youtube reacting to things at least.

Crows v Lions in the GF, I reckon. Dodgy Pies out in straight sets :-D

Rob Chapman, is he still on the airport board?

David Rodan lost his spot because of the Keane behind/goal/score review at our game?

 

[Slippery Pete]

Is it going to rain and if so does that help or hinder?

 

[jenny61_99]

We are at the 11th hour and Rory Sloane still hasn't told us how we should be supporting the team at the ground tomorrow night. C'mon Rory, we await your wisdom.

Didn't your mother ever teach the most important thing in life?

Don't be a dick.
