Went into the game wanting the Giants to win. And as it went on it just turned and and turned to the point of screaming at the tv at every contest. Don't think I've enjoyed a neutral win more than that one before and I didn't even want them to win at the beginning!!

Really hope they get up next week but don't like the chances. Had that real carlton 99 feel to it after the game. Which I do get since its been so long. Just hope it doesn't have any effect on the performance and mindset for the week

Such a good judge is Robbo. Mustn't have typed this on the one day of the year he wasn't pickled.
He is right though

Ditch Griffen and get a top 10 pick as well as getting Peter Wright and the dogs win that trade.

Gordon acted like an ego manic and overpaid for a forward

Boyd will be better than 2MP and I rate him enough that I want us to get him. They turned an ageing mid into a KPF to build their side around and don't look to have missed that mid.

I think they've won it anyway. Overpaying in cash terms but the cap will increase in the next year or two and that effect will be lessened.

West Coast will beat us, Hawks will beat us, Giants will beat us........

Bring on the Swannies should be a cracker. The 2 deepest midfields going toe to toe. We dont have a bad record against them too.

Well jod23 you were quite pissed at west coast for getting pumped by the Bulldogs in the finals but it's proving you could have lost to the 2016 premiers. West coast away, hawthorn at the G, Giants away, that's 3 cracking wins in a row.

Confidence will be sky high at the dogs, they now believe, will be a formidable force for years to come now, could be the start of something at the kennel.
