No idea who- Geelong? Richmond? Even Melbourne! You must be able to win in Melbourne.


Tigers for me if its a left field winner, best team the Hawks have played all year.
Don't take to much notice of last week in Geelong, Caddy out of the game early in the first quarter, not to many teams win when down a rotation for the whole game


Don't forget the free ride Geelong get at home.

Posted this yesterday in the things you rate thread. He is attending the church that one of my good mates is the pastor at, one of our fellowship churches, The Potters House, in WA. Fantastic story of redemption, not through religion but a relationship with God. The addiction is only part of the story though and he has battled some other serious trauma of late which many would gave gone back to drugs or alcohol over but he is doing excellently...

Adelaides to lose from here, they can choose where they finish.
If the Giants beat Geelong the Crows would want to lose to get the Richmond match up 1st week. If Geelong win then Crows have to win and they still get the Richmond match up.

So the Crows will have to win. Cats will account for GWS

Would you rather have a lesser opponent when you have the double chance or in a cut throat prelim?

I don't think there is a lesser opponent in the top 4
The concern would be losing first final and having to face syd in elimination final

2nd can also mean playing Richmond in which case according to your logic 1st would then be better

I actually think the Richmomd match up is the one they least want. Whilst Richmond can still do funny things, when they are on and its there day it seem they are more than capable.

Richmond at the G are a different proposition to Richmond away. Adelaide would lick their lips at the prospect of Richmond coming to Adelaide week 1.

It's their best case scenario, probably Richmond, Port, GWS in that order would be the Crows ideal first final.

I think St Kilda will beat Richmond and Port will sneak into 4th and showdown first final.

Richmond are certainly capable of that, even if St Kilda aren't. :lol:

I'm very interested in Brisbane v North. The right result will be most satisfying.

Brisbane are good things I reckon. They come back much harder now when they get behind. They aren't dropping their heads anymore. This is a unit that is hellbent on avoiding the spoon. The Roos will struggle to contain Rockliff, Zorko, Beams and Martin.
