This is our "grand final"....
Win at all cost
Season on the line
Passengers from previous games on last chance (ie forwards)

| Our season has been "on the line" for the last 6 weeks. It's becoming a little tiresome. |

i think that is a daft phase.

| I don't know how you guys can switch to the next game so quickly? I'm still digesting last night & have room for only 1 game at a time. |

I get quite angry every time Collingwood plays a "home" game against an interstate club there - instead of us having a fortress for "guaranteed" wins like Geelong and Hawthorn, we play these games at a ground we don't like playing on and which has absolutely nothing to do with deciding whether a team will or won't perform well in finals. It's an exercise in foot-shooting futility.
I hate these games because, even if Collingwood wins, I don't consider the result relevant to anything except the 4 points on the day. |
^ Spot on in all respects bar the pessimism re our chances. I expect to win the next two games.
Docklands is a Shizehole fit only for rubbish games between rubbish clubs, such as St Vomit v GWS or Footscray v Norf.

Dwelling on loses isn't much fun. I'd rather move on from it and think about next week.
Sure we've had three tough games but at least we get a nice long break now. |

Haven't you seen the result yet, Lonestar? We lost.
On the BBS, a win lasts 5-7 days; a loss lasts for the same number of hours.

Not bad. But we should also drop Pendelbury and replace him with Armstrong because the Eagles wouldn't be expecting it. You know, the element of surprise and all that. |

though, last night's refocus was a world record for this forum.

Don't mean to be pedantic, but dwelling on losers is about as much fun as dwelling on losses.  |

No, we just need to play Kennedy. His absence is the reason why we have lost all of the last 3 games.
