I dont give a rats about our current ladder posi - its irrelevant and 99.9% chance will not be the same come sept.

As long as we paly with the endeavor shown today all year, we'll be up there for sure.

We faded because the players knew Malthouse was leaving, shows how well respected the man was at the club

yes that win against the bullies by 5 points in the qualifying final was a great win. the players and malthouse showed great emotion duringand after that win. 65 to 59. i remember that game vividly, it was my first match watching us win an actual match live. out of about 20 victorian interstate matches, it was thge first time i actually saw us win. that win was also so much more special because two weeks earlier we had lost to the bullies by 2 pounts at optus oval, and we fought back at the hard in finals two weeks later.

unfortunately we had to play carlton in victoria the following week even though we won and they lost the previous week. damn stupid mcg agreement!

oh well, no use crying over spilt milk ;)

Back to where we belong (#1).

We have got Richmond and Essendon next - both should be fairly good challenges to see where we are. If we are a genuine top 4 side you'd expect we'd win both games.

Well we were first for an hour or two. Still top 2 is just wrong...I would never have thought we would be in second position after 8 rounds....never!

You and me both mate! I had us 3-5 after Round 8 in my pre-season prediction. Shame on me for under-estimating the boys!

I think you put that prediction going on the form of 2002. though many media "experts" predicted us as flash in the pan for one reason or another and predicting us in the bottom 8 for 2003, it's nice to see the team doing so well this year.

2003 has a taste of 1990 in the wind.........
