[magic_johnson!]

simple. would you prefer to win a third place play off or lose a grand final?

lose the grand final

 

[goodie]

ive had this debate with a mate before i'd prefer 3rd.

 

[Bomber32]

2nd. I'd rather win a silver medal than a bronze medal anytime.

 

[goodie]

i'd prefer to win going into the after match celebrations than lose.

If you prefer third then you are an idiot. If you play in the 3rd place playoff you have NO chance of winning the comp. Better to lose a GF anyday.

 

[Power King]

i don't know, to answer this question, most would use at least a bit of hindsight.

The pre-question would have to be, would you prefer to win or lose the semi-final?

Most definitely win the semi-final, but I can see why in hindsight people would like to win third place. I still prefer to make the grand final and have a chance, even if it means all that pain on the line.

This.

Being a Richmond supporter, I don't what either feels like.

If you knew that you had to lose one, which would you pick?

That is an insanely stupid question.

 

[BomberGal]

That is an insanely stupid question.

No it's not. There's a huge difference in how you feel after a prelim loss vs a GF loss.

Yeah it is.

GF every day of the week.

2nd. Clearly.
