No it wouldn't. Because that means Tigers win.
I've had to detach myself a bit this year.

Hated the dogs winning. Can't bring myself to hate any out come this year. I choose to NGAF about any of it this year.

Whatever outcome gives the biggest Schadenfreude, I want that.

GWS making a Granny or even winning it, for me is a far less evil than Tigers.

GWS were handed everything, they're expected to snatch at least one in the next couple of years. Why not this year?

Tigers however get there on one of the softest draws I can think of and a miracle injury list throughout the season, on top of a media driven campaign to get them across the line. Hell they've been describing this game as the Tiger Prelim, not the Tiger-GWS prelim. The other ones the Adelaide-Cats Prelim though.

Cannot stand the thought of those smug pricks taking the dais.

Almost my exact reasoning from last season.

Change soft draw with umpires and throws and Richmond to Bulldogs and I could have posted this.

That is mad.

I have sinking feeling that the Tiges are going to win.
Or it could be a glorious mid afternoon of grown ups in onesies crying into their mid strength beer before keying every car with a GWS sticker in Jolimont.

1,200 GWS members got tickets to the G on the weekend.

Over 90,000 tickets sold.
If the Tiggers are getting rolled it would almost be worth travelling in to watch the steady procession filing out in their onesies from 3/4 time onwards for the lols.

Sight unseen will wager those were not 1,200 paid in full memberships either.

But it's all part of "growing the game" right?

I may have in my younger days been at Jolimont station on an occasion where Richmond was being pantsed and stopped every tiggers supporter to ask who was winning.

'oh third quarter you say'
'down by 70'
'not sticking it out then'

It's going to be brutal for the Giants and supporters.

And also I'm sick to death of the media referring to Geelong as Danger and the the Cats, yes he is Geelong in a way but they do have other players. The other players must be sick to death of it. And his head only gets bigger.
