I have now officially switched off.
Will be an amazing GF. Don't think Dees should be favourite, 50/50 I reckon.
Adam Treloar cements his position in the GF team for Western bulldogs.
He is Top 22 in a Grand Finalist team.
Luke Beveridge has confirmed his faith in him by selecting him for this game, despite last week.
Says it all.
We gave away a top outside mid for literally nothing.
And did it in a really disgusting manner.
Free Julian Assange!!

^ you could say the same about Ben Brown.

We don't have a key forward and could have picked him up for nothing and now he's in the Best 22 of a GF team.

You would have to think Melbourne will be favourites to win the Grand Final.
Maybe not. Playing 1 game in four weeks isn't great.
Bulldogs seems to have some momentum at the moment and will have a week off now.

Will be interesting!

2016 the umpires blatantly cheated the whole finals series to win them a flag.

It's happening again.
...
Do you realize that Brissy knocked WB out of the top 4 in the last 20 seconds of their game against WC, when the last quarter went for almost 40 minutes?? :?: :shock:

The Age said twice that there was a timing error... Bloody big timing error. How can a quarter go on for 10 minutes more than normal? Did you hear any whingeing about a 40 minute quarter that cost WB a top-4 spot? I didn't. It's gobsmacking. :shock:
But other media reports said the supposed error concerned just 24 seconds of play... (Which was still long enough on its own to be the difference between top 4 and not top 4.) So even if that is subtracted, the Q4 was still over 38 minutes long. How did it become so long? :shock: :? :?:


And WB as the higher-ranked team requiested the final against Essendon be in Adelaide. The AFL made it in Tassie. WB requested the final against Brissy be earlier on Saturday. The AFL made it on Sat. night. WB were trapped in their hotel the whole day. Same as before the PF... WB have spent the last few weeks bouncing back and forth between cities across the entire country.

If this is an AFL plot in favour of WB, it must be a very cunning one...


OTOH the extra week off before the GF will help them. Without it, it'd be tough playing the GF.

It's Treloar's presence turning Macrae into a footballer.

Our Junior Burger does have some similarities to the Big Mac... e.g. the hunched footy stance.

We'll see...
