If we beat carlscum round 1 I will be a happy man. How we prepare, how we approach, how we play that game will tell me alot about where our season is headed. If I see the likes of Robinson getting easy kicks & getting away with roughing up players without anyone letting him know about it...or Eddie betts alone in the goalsquare with three goals in the first etc.  Then I'll know if this season is gonna be good or disappointing.
I can't stand losing to Carlscum regardless of the ladder positions. We should NEVER be easy beats to that cheating charlatan team. That's all I care about for now. That's all that should matter to anyone at the club at the moment. Not nab cup not practice matches not anything but beating that poor excuse for a team. 

We must beat Carlton!!!! Nothing else matters at the minute.

It wouldn't be a surprise IMO if we did finish around the same mark as last year as we are still very young and inexperienced especially in the backline if Lids and Newy are moving into the midfield. Hopefully though we are more competitive against the top sides so irrespective of where we finish on the ladder we are still bridging the gap between us and the top sides. Our main goal is building a premiership side rather than one that can just scrape into the Eight.


1. Geelong
2. Carlton
3. Hawthorn
4. Collingwood
5. West Coast
6. Fremantle
7. Sydney
8. Melbourne
-----------------
9. North  ;D
10. Adelaide
11. Essendon
12. Richmond
13. St Kilda
14. Bulldogs
15. Port Adelaide
16. Brisbane
17. Gold Coast
18. GWS

No Excuses Billy Boy. :lol :rollin :lol

8 or bust. :thumbsup

A measure of our improvement will also be our performances against the elite sides and whether we get blown away which I feel we won't and we might dish a few out to the weaker sides.  :thumbsup

If we win any other games add it to the 12.  ;)

Sorry, maybe I could have worded better. I expect us to only win Melbourne in the first 5 rounds.

If we win Scum, Toofless, Pussies or Weagles than you can +1 to that number of 12.  :thumbsup

Apart from the irony that's very funny

Did I insult anyone in my reply? Did I resort to cheap gutter/smut talk in my reply? Would think the answers would be Nope

So what exactly did I give out?  ;D ;D

But if it makes you feel better and less aggrieved I can ban myself for 24 hours  :rollin

There is still a few bugs in current version
Tried it last night, although there is 18 spots on ladder there is no GWS
As your tips progress through the rounds the blank spot mimics freo and therefore creates a false 9-10th place.

Sydney have a horror home run so could slide out.
