Rude? Tell you what rude is,Magpies go to Carlunga in rounds 14 and 18. Go figure.
If you want to go quickly, go alone.

If you want to go far, go together.

As if Port fans ever make the trip. How many times have you been to Carlunga Mr Boon? I've been there many times and even went to that game held at Bice Oval..it's still better than going to Elizabeth *shudder*

Maybe the SANFL are trying to tell you blokes something ha ha.

Yep, I'm sure that's how we've planned the season. We won't try against those three but win everything else. :roll:

Saturday's result was far from ideal but to suggest it's the beginning of the end for 2007 is a little silly. We now know we have a lot of work to do, not such a bad thing....


I didnt say that you wouldnt be trying against those teams
Matty Wade is a star and deserves more respect from the forum family!

Yep, and on top of that, two of their last three games are at Elizabeth and Woodville.


By my reckoning (open to correction, of course), compared with 2006 fellow "middle three" teams (Port and Glenelg):-



versus last year's top 3

South - 8 Matches: 5 Away, 3 Home (if you include Encounter Bay)
Glenelg - 7 Matches: 4 Away, 3 Home
Port - 6 Matches: 3 Away, 3 Home


versus last year's bottom 3

South - 7 Matches: 3 Away, 4 Home
Glenelg - 8 Matches: 4 Away (if you include Sturt at Adelaide), 4 Home
Port - 8 Matches: 3 Away, 5 Home



I'd rather have Port's draw than South's, on both counts.

If they are going to lose to Central and the Eagles anyway it prob doesn't matter if it's rounds 1-2 or 8-9. If they are good enough, the Panthers will quickly get back on track.

If I was the slightest bit cynical I'd suggest that the SNAFFLE is pretty keen on having the Barnacles back in the top three. :wink:
