Universal Love We’re playing finals

[The Donners]

I have to admit. After the Dogs game I was convinced we were done. But the boys showed true grit and did the job. I hold my hand up and admit I was wrong on this. And I've never been more happy to say that.

You’re not alone.

 

[greysong]

Right now the Tigers are not looking so good. Do not want to finish 8th. Go GWS.

Agree, playing Richmond is worst case scenario.

More reason to beat collingwood next week

 

[Stopher]

A rest to 8 out of our best 22 when they have a week off between Round 23 and finals anyway. Can't see that ending badly.







Seriously though, people don't actually think that's a good idea do they? They won't have played a game for 21 days.

It's like 1990 never happened.

There would be many not even born then. Even more that would not remember

 

[ghostdog]

They had 2 weeks off last week and the week before i think if they have another 2 weeks on a row off itll be too much.

I don't agree. Those we need to not batter can freshen up and we have conditioning staff who can give them an intense run without having them smashed.

Three weeks off isn’t freshening them up, it’s letting them go stale. Simple.

As I said, I'd overlooked the week off, but it would still be wise to nurse Raz, Heppell and Hooker through.

Give it a rest. It would be 2 weeks max for Raz and Hep.

A couple of them, yeah that’s a different matter.

As Stopher noted though, 1990 is a cautionary tale on this if there ever needed to be one.

finals posting is a step above in intensity compared to regular season posting. I’m looking forward to the quality of posts lifting.

I am certain that you will be disappointed.

Win our first final, Woosha is the messiah, watch out for Langford’s breakout 2020, sign Zaharakis up for a 2-year extension. Lose our first final...

 

[YEMOC NAYR]

Lol, how about we have a toast thread once we WIN a final for the first time in 15 years.

Adelaide and Essendon are probably going to be two of the weakest sides to every play finals footy.

We conceded 21 goals in a row only a week ago.

You're an optimistic bloke aren't ya? If you've got nothing good to say, don't say it at all. People are allowed to enjoy being apart of finals footy.

 

[The Donners]

And who exactly thinks GWS will win?

<Hans Moleman>

Not me!

That's not how forums work but okay bud

Me.

If GWS defeat Bulldogs today:

- Essendon remain 7th win or lose next week against Collingwood.
- If Essendon lose round 23 their Elimination opponent will be GWS at Spotless.
- If Essendon win round 23 their Elimination opponent will be Collingwood (providing GWS also beat Gold Coast)

If Bulldogs defeat Essendon today:

- If Essendon win round 23 their Elimination opponent will be GWS at Spotless (providing GWS also beat Gold Coast)
- If Essendon win round 23 they will get a home final if GWS also lose to Gold Coast.
- If Essendon lose round 23 and Bulldogs lose then Essendon will face GWS at Spotless.
- If Essendon lose round 23 and the Bulldogs defeat Adelaide then Essendon will face Collingwood at the MCG (providing Richmond and West Coast both also win in round 23)

Just think you came off like a bit of a tosser, if people want to enjoy the fact that this club is playing in a final then let them.

Flog the Pies this week then go into finals with a full head of steam

....and flog the pies 2 weeks after in a crowd of 90,000+ @ the MCG

Nah, give them enough rope and they hang themselves.

Likewise you sound like a tosser for telling people to be nice or don't say anything at all. How dare someone have a dissenting point of view.

I’ve had a distinct dislike for extended breaks since 1990.






Stupid Peter Sumich...

 

[jmoo wan]

qualifying for the finals was meant to bring us all together, instead it’s tearing us apart!

Think about your original post that started this convo, then reread what you just said

 

[PressureCooker]

I'm so confused... Who should I be barracking for right now??
