Simple- move your final to Saturday and give the Hawks the Friday night final. It was fine in 2012. :evil:

We finished 2nd on the ladder in 08, deserve the later final.

We finished top in 12, only for the swans to get the Friday prelim (and ours was that awful 5pm Saturday kickoff).

Our blokes were cooked anyways, but its the principle, or even the vibe...

So the hawks lost the 2012 gf.cause they were tired?

If they were that gives me some sort of messed up comfort from the Prelim Haha. That prelim was a great game with the class rising @ the end.

No Reco but out for the season and must be a real worry that 2015 will be his last after signing a one year deal.


Hopefully he gets a good run at it in 2015

Johnson and McIntosh out and Mc Carthy and Brown in. Not playing an unfit Johnson, good decision IMO. I'd rather have a fit Linc.

Fremantle fans giving Adelaide fans a run for their money. Who would have thought, good working class people from the water side taking steps like this? ;)

Fremantle fans rolled up at the airport with Ryan Crowley masks to greet the Port Adelaide players upon their arrival...

I believe that when the players are laughing at you, your attempts to put them off may not be working......

Funny as hell though. Just shows such a good side to freo fans.

They painted the town Purple last year too and this year again hung a "lets go Freo" banner on the woodside petrolium building in the cbd. They honestly give Port no chance over there.

David King believes North will need boomer next week and asked him not to punch or fly kick anyone.

So punters take note of this as David King is a bloke who knows things.....;)

Hard one in regards to Johnson. He wasn't fit in 2011 Grand Final and was close to taking the Norm Smith home. Personally, as a Kangaroos supporter, I am glad he is not there. I was worried if he played they would sit him in a forward pocket and he snag a lazy 4 or 5.
