Last question of Longmire press conference.
Reporter: two sides are playing off tomorrow the winner is chasing history (something like that)
Longmire: So are we.

End of conference

Depends on the opponent. GWS he has to with their big forwards but against the Dogs no because he is too slow against their medium forwards

Hard to imagine Geelong smashed Sydney in the Inside 50s, won the last 3 quarters and only had two less scoring shots than Sydney as the scoreboard seemed to flatter Geelong from the blurred images I saw!
Anyway on to tonight, really torn who I want to win tonight, GF would have a bit more oomph if the Dogs make it but I do have orange and black tops to wear GF day (and red and white) but nothing blue, red and white! :lol:
Might just put my energy into the Raiders v Storm!
If GWS win the finals will have a similar feel to last year with Sydney playing the part of Hawthorn and GWS playing the part of West Coast.

Well I'm torn.

My equal 4th favorite side won last night,beating my equal 15th favorite side and today my outright 2nd favorite plays my stand alone 7th favorite.

I've got a wardrobe full of clothes but I've just gone with black trackies and tshirt for this morning. Might go a blue shirt to the pub later.

I had hard boiled eggs on toast, I would have liked the yolk a bit runnier though.

Sigh.
PAFC. Forever.

All the Motlops the same. Can do the miraculous but can't do the hard work when things are tough.

Wouldn't be many buyers for a bloke who wilts under the bright lights.

Please


Is this Dud going around again?
You could afford to carry him with Scarlett , Harley and co. in the team......But not anymore.
He's been a weak link for years.

Yeah I know how many games he's played and premierships he's won........ Still a very average footballer at his best though!
