Robert Heatley Stand / Re: ELIMINATION FINAL : Ninth Beats Ninthmond (Ha Ha Ha Ending)
The planets must still be in alignment. This side that was written off by so many after the shocking Essendenial loss have just found a will to win. It's a game of inches this great sport we have. A couple of inches the other side of the post last week and we wouldn't be celebrating one of the great wins in this clubs history. Have never hugged so many complete strangers at the footy as I did today. Trying to get the wife to go to bed so I can watch the replay but from my perspective Gibbs was BOG followed closely by Murph and the Juddmaster. Waite never to play down back again. Duigan may have saved his career and Ed Curnow (apart from his atrocious kicking) continues to deliver. We are a chance next week make no mistake. Momentum is a powerful, powerful thing.

I still reckon Richmond were mad for beating Essendon. They would have ended up playing Port if they dropped that game and we would've ended up playing Collingwood (given they beat North today). So many things working in our favour right now. Come from behind victory gives a team momentum regardless of how badly they've been travelling. I'd be very nervous if I was a Tiger's fan right now.

Can't just think one week ahead.   The winner of the Port final will most likley get Fremantle at Fremantle now that the Cats are playing at SS.

Right, but the winner of our final will most probably play Sydney in Sydney so what's the point? At least if Richmond had've played Port they would most probably have had a win. I think they will have more trouble against us.

not if the hawks lose buddy.  I think Syd win that first one..  It will be two brutal game games for either of those sides.
Ok, so not the point I was trying to make. So the winner plays Hawthorn, whatever. The point is more about having a better chance to get to the second week of finals. Nevermind

I am embarrassed that we are playing finals with our performances this year and hold no excitement going into this weeks game. We have 11 wins for the season and many times have looked completely inept. I would rather just have the off-season roll on and see how next year shapes.
Well, I feel sorry for you. I am definately excited even if we don't deserve to be there. I know we haven't been great this year but maybe, just maybe we do produce a game like we did against the Dawks at stinlin Ethard earlier this year when we were robbed by the maggots. I live in hope that the planets will be in alignment and we do produce because you know why? Because this will be a final in Melbourne I can actually get to. I want our season to continue because I have absolutely zero enthusiasm for any other team in the finals. It's all about me and my club. Isn't that why we are supporters?

It would be sweet if we snuck in and took out the filth in an elimination final.

Ha! Ha! Wouldn't that be a treat. I can't believe we would ever do it but it's nice to dream. If we go in by default, personally I would feel it was a shallow victory as we are not worthy. Think a few of the players would too and play accordingly. Would still go to the final hough. I'm a glutten for punishment.
By the way I think we will beat Port next week.
