well said dwaino  :thumbsup

they make me sick the way that club got treated by the AFL. Hope Hogan leaves them and they are stuck with Watts again.

Part time supporters i call most melbourne supporters.

Cats have kicked the last 3 to jump out to a 27 point lead midway 3rd qtr (64-37). If Geelong wins we need them to win by as much as possible to knock down the Giants' percentage. Of course, we've just got to make sure we do our job tomorrow as well.

Cats 77 GWS 43 nearing 3/4 time.

Our percentage is now currently higher than GWS.

GWS 60 115.6
Rich  56 116.7

final at the g against cats if we win.

if we lose its an elimination final most likely against the drug cheats. A scenario that will be painful.

Do we want Geel to win? If Geel win and we win tomorrow and finish 3rd do we play Geel at the G or Kardinia park? Id rather play Geel on the G, but would prefer GWS up there as oppsed to Geel on their home deck.

no chance it will be in geelong mate.

Not against us anyway. If we lose it will definately be against the giants over there.

I heard there is a contract to play a certain amount of games at the g

Cameron Ling was just asked where their Qualifying Final should be played and even he said if it's Richmond it will be at the 'G.

last year they finished second and played hawks at the g.

It shouldnt even be up for discussion, but if anyone is going to get screwed by the AFL it would be us.

Personally I would still rather Giants at Spotless. Geelong are a massive bogey side for us, even at the G and they're finals specialists. We have a record of going limp when in the spotlight too. We know we can beat GWS and an interstate final might not be so bad if it's against them. I guess finishing top 4 though means you have to be able to take on anyone.

Impossible to play GWS now. Either Geelong if we win or play an elimination final against Essendon, Melbourne, West Coast or even the saints (unlikely).
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

Yeah I know but the whole week I have been thinking that playing GWS away would have been the lesser of two evils  :-[. What a time to have to break our Geelong hoodoo.

This is going down to the wire. Eagles up 88-71 but need another goal to gain enough %.
