Finals games

[mightytiges]

Looks like low scoring finals again this year .

Tough stuff though. I hope the Tiges are watching it especially our cubs to see the level of footy they need to get to.

Cousins with "such is life" across his stomach has done a bad hammy. Reckon he's gone for the season.

Gripping Second Half.
W Coast up by 24.
Port surge to go 7 up
Poor Cornes turnover brings Eagles back to 1 point with 3 mins to go.
Ebert drops a sitter whilst the Power are running the clock down.
Nevertheless Port successfully hold on and get a home Prelim final.
Just a close hard fought game of finals footy. How I hope my beloved Tigers
can experience the euphoria of this soon.
Eagles in deep injury poo. If they draw the Swans next week may be gawn for 07.
Port Adelaide   9   14   68
West Coast     9   11   65

Yep the Eagles are stuffed. No Kerr, Cousins, Hansen plus a lame Judd. Even if they hobble to a win at Subi next week they won't make it past the PFs.

Gawd I hope the Swans win tonight. I couldn't stand the Pies making a Prelim and the feral skunks gloating

Last night = battle for the worse club theme songs

Last night = battle for the worse club theme songs

I am sure Freo would have a big say in that dud contest

[mightytiges]

There's only one great theme song   

Hawks and Crows game is going down to the wire as well. Game of swinging momenta. The Crows build a couple goal lead and then Hawthorn bridges the gap. Franklin has 5.   

[Hellenic Tiger]

Franklin kicks 7 including the winner with 10 seconds to go.
Hawthorn   15  15  105
Adelaide     15  12  102

Hawthorn to play the loser of the Geelong Kangaroos clash.
Adelaide = mothballs for 2007

Great start to this year's finals series. Two games decided by just 3 points.

Grant Thomas has just given Neil Craig a massive spray over his coaching especially leaving Massie on Franklin all day. 

Interesting that the clubs that have played underdone and injured stars have lost so far. Judd last night and Riccuito today. You can't do that anymore.

[Hellenic Tiger]

Grant Thomas should just keep his mouth shut.

On a serious note the end of an era at the Crows
Mark Ricciuto just played his last game. A great player
1 Premiership
1 Brownlow Medal
Adelaide Cpatain
B & F's
A class act.

And Riccuito only missed out on another premiership due to injury.


Bloody Pies in front  .

[Hellenic Tiger]

Bloody Pies won MT.   
Scumwood   18  17  125
Sydney        13   9    87
The premiership race is down to 6.
As much as it pains me to mention this Scum are a real chance
on Friday in Perth when you take into account injuries to key
personnel in Eagles line up.

[mightytiges]

The Pies won't get past the Cats even if they beat the wounded Eagles. At least they'll end up with crappy draft picks for finishing high up the ladder .

The Pussies are giving the Roos a hiding. 49 points up with 26 scoring shots to 7  .

[mightytiges]

Eagles up by 3 points at half-time. Good of Wakelin and Clement to pass it to Eagles 30m out from goal  .

FULL TIME
10.12 72 a piece

C'mon Eagles

Bloody Pies  

Geelong will be happy though. Getting Collingwood after a trip to Perth and extra time.
