5:15?! What kind of time is that for a final to start? I'd get if it was being played in the West and they needed to start it early for the TV broadcaster, but that's just weird.

Good thing I am going out.
Don't think I can sit through a whole game with BT and Luke Darcy commentating.

Thank gawd the Hawks lost last week. If they were playing GWS, they'd be up 6 goals right about now. GWS are shell shocked / overawed.

GWS vs Bulldogs.

Post by stui magpie »

Cracking game, full of run, tackling and intensity yet low scoring.

Bulldogs playing better defensively, swarming the Giants, not letting them use their outside speed.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

the curse of the bye.

If the AFL persist with the bye before finals, then top 4 is irrelevant.
