There was a suggestion that the 2 QF winners play a scratchie in the week off to keep up match fitness

Is this an omen for the Tigers?

In 2011 Gary Ablett Jnr left Geelong and Cats went on to win the Flag.
In 2014 Buddy Franklin left Hawthorn and Hawks went on to win the Flag.
In 2017 Tyrone Vickery left Richmond and Tigers .... .. .. ... ... ....

What's with all the talk of them even being a real chance to even make the GF? I can't work it out. Cats will kick their arse.

Yep

Hope so. Was iffy about the Cats but have been impressed since Selwood has been out. Thought they would drop the rest of their games before finals with him out but they have surprised me and i think are heading towards another GF.

The Crows reserves want to play GWS reserves on the same weekend as the seniors to give some match fitness to their players.
