Unpopular but honest opinion - facing * in a final scares me. They made mincemeat of us in round 1 and we've haven't had a win against a Bomber Thompson side since 2007 etc..

Would have to have a big turnaround in how we handle a side trying to play uncontested parcel the parcel around us to be competitive.
I have the same concern - over the past two seasons, * have shown great ability to win when it matters.

I'm not basing it on round 1, as the team appears to have moved past that insipidness.

Exactly. It shts me but they can really get up in emotional games.

They have a weekly column on the roos website called "in the mix" which suggests which players are up for selection that week - mason wood has featured every week
Well yes, of course. It's the 'bullshit' bit that ... oh.

I'm going to assume that's referring to Wood being within a gnat's wing of selection and never breaking through.

It's the kind of stuff thats only watchable after a 10 hr + shift where your brain literally doesn't work any longer.
I don't ever wanna hear one of my favourite childhood musical themes butchered with rap music in it.

That lovely tune is my ring tone too.

It's almost as bad as your favourite tunes ending up as supermarket and insurance jingles..........

My kids seem to think that bands that THEY don't happen to know (who are 10-20-30-40+ years old) must've "stolen" that particular tune/lyric/jingles from either the "ad" or the "original" they DO know from just six months ago........

The Coles ads hurt big time. I'll admit I still have ALBUMS of theirs in pristine concition.

A classic one was I chucked in a Beach Boys greatest hits CD in the car.

There was the Good Guys ad.

And they must've stolen that whole tune from the Cadbury ad........:mad:

It's like this for my entire history of music I grew up with and loved.
